Garden Party - Happy Birthday Abby!!!

We gathered our friends...

Painted some flower pots...

Opened some presents...

And made some dirt pudding (with gummy worms to keep the garden fresh, of course)...

Abby pointing out that the wind blew out her candle while we sang happy birthday.

Each dirt pudding had a marshmallow flower on top (thanks Jennifer!).

Mmmmmmm

Then we added some real dirt to our flower pots...

Picked a favorite flower or two...

Added a little more dirt on top...

And gave them a little water.

Aw, sweet.  First love?  Probably not, but still a sweet picture!

Finished pots (and 2 cuties).

There was plenty of time to play on the "new" playhouse that we nabbed from our neighbor who was going to throw it away (!?! I know, can you believe it?).

Thank you friends!

And now we have a happy doorstep.

 Abby, you are an amazing gift from God and we love you so much.   We love your creativity, sweetness, sillyness, and gentleness.  We pray that you will grow up to know and love God and use that creativity, sweetness, sillyness, and gentleness to serve Him.  Love, Mommy, Daddy, and Isaac.
