Today was my baby's first birthday. Princess turned ONE! We had such a sweet, wonderful day. A few friends came over to help celebrate as we played and ate AWESOME cake made especially by Nana! Princess's cake was a huge cupcake piled on top of another larger sheet cake. We also had a cupcake tree...I bet you can guess what the theme of her birthday was...cupcakes. We decorated, of course, and had balloons up with streamers. There were four different cakes in addition to cupcakes and chocolate puffs. We get very spoiled when it comes to birthdays at our house. DH's mom makes the most amazing desserts. And yes, she's opening her own business soon...but in Montgomery, AL.
Princess was so happy to celebrate her first birthday with many of her family and friends. Even Lucy, our dog, joined in on the fun. She was especially happy to clean up after Princess ate cake! :)
After the birthday party (and an extra long nap) we went to Toys R Us so that Tink and Man-Man could pick Princess out a present. We decided it would be a special addition to her birthday. We also ate supper at Cock of the Walk on the Reservoir. Princess loved watching her brother and sister feed the ducks.
After such a long and happy day we have another exciting day planned for tomorrow. Tink will be walking the aisle tomorrow in church declaring to everyone that she has accepted Jesus into her heart. Praise the Lord!!! The angels are singing! We are so proud of her. I'll update more on that later. Please pray as we all prepare for Hurricane Gustov...we all still sting from the bite of Katrina three years ago yesterday. It's pretty chaotic around here right now. But one of Tink's Bible verses that she has memorized is Isaiah 41:10 "...do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strenghten you and help you..."

What an exciting weekend for your family! I am so proud of Anna Jane for making such an important decision!
We're so happy! She actually made the decision almost a year ago, we just wanted to make sure she ACTUALLY knew what she said she knew. Well, we've been through the Bible with her and prayed and listened as she talked to us. We know that the decision she made was real and she's now decided it's time to be baptized. Praise God.
so great, Jill. Tell Miss Annah-Jane I'm so excited for her!!
I had your sweet AJ in choir tonight! It'll be fun seeing her each week. She and Emma seemed to be having a lot of fun together.
