E's Birthday party!

 We spent the rainy day together as a family.  We had Stake Conference at the Conference Center, and it was fun to take the kids.  Later we looked at pics. of Emily when she was a baby, and watched videos of when she was born and just a little baby.  She loved seeing herself so little.  She was such an adorable baby.  When Emily was born we didn't know if she was a boy or a girl.  I was so ecstatic when Dr. Jones announced  "It's a girl" after a bit of a complicated delivery.  I was so happy to have a girl and couldn't ask for a sweeter daughter.  She bring so much joy, laughter, kindness and love to our family.

We had a fun family birthday party for her.  She wanted tacos for dinner, and a candy cake with pink and purple cake.  She designed and decorated her own candy cake, it looked pretty scary, but she was thrilled with it. 



She got lots of great stuff; a tea set, clothes, art supplies and umbrella.  Here she is showing off some of her gifts. 

                                                              Some of the pics. are blurry, I have no idea why?!





Here she is this morning before school showing off her new boots, outfit and umbrella. 



We had the party at G&G' Shields house, thanks for letting us crash your place!  Goofy Grandma & Grandpa came too, and the kids always love to see them. 

Overall it was a great day with Emily, we can't believe she is growing up so fast. We love you Emily!
