Ha, Ethan had so many hats on that night it would have been hilarious to see. Oh well, I've got a mental picture of it ;)

You did such a good job keeping them busy. What a great mom you are! Love the cake. I'm always looking for new ideas for cakes.

How fun! Do your girls realize how cool their parents are?! And, yes, it's a girl:) I'll be calling you lots to figure out what to do. :)

I love Natalie's little Christmas jammies, and that hat just tops it off. Happy birthday to Cyrena. I guess she's into trains too, huh? Very cute cake. I like the peach rings for wheels and the Fruit Loops...how creative.
It looks like you use your loft a lot, beyond preschool. I guess that's where all the dancing happens. Do you have a table that folds up into the wall??? How cool is that! We may be needing David's home improvement services once we have a house. We could swap for Cory's dental services. Think about it.

Life as we know it is full of laughter, fun, stress, love, faith and surprises. What more could we ask for?
