A Birthday Party for Annie

The Birthday Girl...she seems to be enjoying the party!

Helping Annie unwrap her presents...just like her brother, Annie would just as soon look at a book as play with a toy.

Another Happy Annie.

I don't think Annie believed that we were going to let her dig right into the cake...it took a bit of time before she would give it a try.

She's still thinking about it in this shot.

By now she's got the hang of it.

George kept himself busy playing in one of the big bags.

Last Saturday evening we celebrated Annie's birthday with a small family party. Unlike George's gigantic Memorial Day weekend parties, we decided to keep this one small (we were concerned with the time of year that the weather would not be be nice enough to have people outside and we just don't have a big enough house to have too may folks inside!!), so it was strictly family. We still had a decent number of folks (I think the final guest count was 17) to celebrate with and I believe that everyone had a nice time. Annie really seemed to enjoy the food and all the attention she received. Here a just a few shots from the party...you'd think with as many pictures as we took we would have at least one decent shot of everyone...but you'd be wrong. So, if your not in a picture you know why...we're glad you came just the same though and we'd love it if you tried for a better shot again next year. Thanks again to everyone for everything...we love you all!!
