Birthday Girl!

Happy 1st Birthday Mya!


We had a fabulous pool party for Mya's birthday.

It was so fun to have bunches of family come and hang out on the ONE sunny day that week.


Grandpa and Mya

Grams and Moey socializing.

We had a great time watching Charlie show us all his dives and jumps.
Mya went down the slide with Cody and then Cody, McKay and Charlie did slide tricks for us.


Little Miss Priss decided to take little pinches of frosting. There was no diving into her cake at all, Cody smashed her hand into it and then she just sucked on her fingers.


YEAH, this sugary cake stuff is DELISH!!

To get the cake to this point it took all the adults grabbing 'pinches' and we cut off two big chunks for Charlie and Jane. I'll admit it was a pretty delightful confection.


Covered in cake and icing

Your smile stretched ear to ear,

A single candle celebrates

The joys of your first year.


We sing Happy Birthday

You play midst wrap and bows

We marvel how you touched our lives

Just one year ago.


I remember the first time I held you,

Kissed your head, whispered your name.

You've changed our lives forever,

Our hearts will never be the same.


As a child you'll love this day

For all the sweets and presents too.

As parents we'll love your day,

For the gift we got was you!


Each year we'll add another candle,

So proud to see you grow,

But always with the memory

Of your first day long ago.


Miss Mya We LOVE you madly you cute little cheeser!

Happy Birthday!


P.S. - Thanks to cousin Heather for the Poem, I wish I could take credit for it.

Oh what an adorable little princess! Happy Birthday Mya! I cannot believe it's been a whole year already. Wow that went fast. Looks like the party was a blast. Wish I was there! Great pictures of the little lady sampling the cake frosting. I guess I didn't really expect her to get too messy either. Silly girl!
