Our little pumpkin turned 2 on May 2. We had a small party at her favorite park here in town and invited a few of her friends she plays with on a regular basis. We had such a fun time. We had cake, ice cream, a pinata, and of course lots of laughs. She got lots of presents (which she loved). She is still talking about her birthday. It was a fun day for all of us. Here are a few pictures:
Addie after her party.....wearing her NEW boa!
In her birthday dress from Emmy!
One of her new dress-up dresses and purse. She loved it so much we had to put in on as soon as we opened it!
Swinging at the pinata
Smiling as everyone sings "Happy Birthday"
My favorite picture of Addie and her Papa G
We have been super busy. David's dad started having serious complications with his cancer that had spread to his spine in early March. Dave went and spent the week with them while Addie and I were in Nashville seeing my side of the family. After being in the hospital/nursing home with hospice for a little over a week, Galen went to be with the Lord on Sunday April 4th, 2010. Easter will now have a deeper meaning for all of us in the future. Thanks to everyone for your prayers, cards, calls and concern for us. He is greatly missed, but we feel very blessed because our life was better for knowing, loving and being loved by him.
.As so life does go on........We are starting to get back into the swing of things. We are both back to work. Addie has few more weeks of Kindermusik before the summer break. When I am off, we are spending lots of time outside. We have zoo passes this year so we go to the zoo frequently. Her favorite animal is Vincent, the sea lion. She also loves feeding the deer and the fish. We take lots of trips on the train, tram, and carousel. My parents are coming the week before Memorial Day to spend some time with us and we are meeting my entire family in St. Louis for Memorial Day weekend. Corine is coming for a visit in mid-June so we are looking forward to that.
So there is an update on our little family!
