Penny's First Birthday

Well it came and went in flash! This year has been filled with so many remarkable things, most importantly the 1st birthday of our darling daughter Penny! We are so grateful for those who came out to celebrate with us, even though we had a severe rainstorm!! Penny had a great day surrounded by her family and friends. Michael was a great host and made sure that all the kids played and fun.

To see Penny grow over the last year has been a such a pleasure. She is so unique from Michael, an aspect of parenting that I simply love. Each child has their own personality, and while many times it not the opposite of the other just different. The diversity of the human spirit is so cool I have such a greater appreciation for this now having seen two children go through a first year of life.

Cousin Amy was kind enough to take a ton of pictures form the days event.THANK YOU!
Thanks to everyone who celebrated with us, we couldn't be more grateful for all of you.
