Birthday Girl

This little cutie turned ONE on July 13th! Check out her adorable birthday outfit: a cupcake shirt/tutu made by Aunt Alisa. Sadie is lucky to have such a thoughtful and crafty auntie!
Grandma and Grandpa were in town for Sadie's special day. She absolutely loved all the attention. Check out Sadie and Grandma's matching outfits... and matching hair. What beauties!
Mike's parents are always so sweet and so helpful when they visit. We also enjoy getting to do fun things with them like walking at Salem Lake. Sadie especially enjoyed herself!
The Saturday before Sadie's birthday we went to Burlington to see Brett & Liesl's new place, to swim, and to celebrate. Laurie, Sadie, Randy and Brett all have July birthdays. Brett and Sadie were even born on the same day! (just 25 years apart)

I can't believe how big my baby is getting. Has it really been a year? I was a little sad as her birthday approached, but it turned out to be pretty fun. Of course, everyday is fun with my little girl!
Christine, Matt & Sarah came over for cake and brought Sadie the cutest little book called "Hola Jalepeno!"

Sadie had Deweys' pink lemonade cake for her first sugary treat ever (unless Mike snuck her something while I wasn't watching). After a mishap with the candle, she finally calmed down enough to try her cake. And she loved it!

Grammie, Alisa & Brycen Visit

This past week Sadie had visitors and she was kind enough to share them with us. She had so much fun with her cousin Brycen. I'm not sure what she'll do with out him!

Brycen had never seen so much pink in his life. His face says it all!
We took the kids swimming at Tanglewood pool,


and then to Furnitureland where they picked out their favorite pieces.




We walked around at Old Salem,

and then went sight seeing on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
