Preview of Party Pictures

The official birthday pictures aren't in yet, but here's a sneak preview! These are all cell phone images from my sister.


Braiden's birthday party was so much fun! Sarah, Andrew, Thomas, Daniel, Annabel, Scott and Sennu were all there, and Braiden loved all of his presents (especially the garbage truck!). He loved his m&m cake too. :-)

We had a great long weekend in Pennsylvania with Sennu's family! The weather was perfect, the cabin was nice and big, and we just had a fabulous time all around! We drove up and have been hanging out with the cousins this week. What a great time! We've done some special things (apple orchard, school concert, etc), but mostly just have hung out together - and there's nothing better!! We all miss daddy terribly though...

Some random things from this week: Noah has started clapping, and does it constantly! Braiden has lots of new words, such as "upstairs". Annabel and Braiden have been inseparable - today there was an incident with them deciding to play in the bath tub (with no water) in the middle of the day. :-)

Ihanaa että saatte viettää aikaa Sennun porukan kanssa, varmasti ikävä on kova kun ette ole yhdessä. Aiotteko olla pitkään nyt Sennulla?
Jumalan rauhaa

Sennu - Oooh! Can't wait to see them! We love being here...! It's been so neat to see Braiden and Annabel enjoying each other. And not to even mention ME!

Sirpi - Kiitos! On kamala ikävä... Sennu on paras ystäväni, ja me olemme ihan samalla aaltopituudella, joten hauskaa on kun olemme yhdessä. Nyt onneksi ollaan täällä pari viikkoa, ei ole ihan varmaa vielä! Ja sitten jouluksi taas uudestaan. :) Tsemppiä teille vauvan tuoksuisiin päiviin!

Kiitos ihanasta kuvasarjasta!
Näyttäkää meillekin miten pieneen tilaan saadaan kuvat pakattua.

Tästäkö alkoi lasten lahjapakettien avaus jatkuen 17.1. saakka? Hauskoja nuo hatut!

Happy Birthday Braiden. The pics look great and seeing as you said they were a sneak peek, I can't wait to see the rest of them.

Those pictures are so great! Looks like Braiden had a fun party, and I'm glad you are getting to spend a lot of time with family and friends!

Kyllä muorilla muisti on alkanut pätkiä!
Mielestäni kirjoitin tänne ja eihän täällä mitään ollut!
Siis tulin katsomaan, onko mitään uutta !
Ihania kuvia - kiitos! Aikas miettivän näköinen Braiden on. Varmaan muistaa aikuisena jo jotain tästä huomiosta. Itsekin muistan, kun sain 2 v lahjaksi sinikantisen Aapisen.
Kiireitä sillä miehelläsi pitää, jos et ole vielä kuvia saanut. Odotellaan.

It looks like such a fun time. There are some creative uses of party hats going on there!

Marsha - Thanks, you know exactly how I feel, with Penny living so far!! And yes, I was at the first concert... I even saw you briefly today, but since it was raining, I didn't get out of the car. :-)

Tonya - So good to hear from you. I check your blogs every chance I get, which hasn't been very frequently lately... :( Hope you guys are doing well!

Jamie - Thanks! We are still at my sister's and loving it!!

Lauren - Leave to these kids to find creative uses for just about anything!!

Isä - Joo, näytetään, Picnikkiä me käytetään Sennun kanssa paljon, hauska ja helppo ohjelma. Ja ihan totta, tästä alkoi juhlasesonki...!

Äiti - Kiitos, onneksi nyt kommentti tuli läpi! On Eppu tosi totinen kun keskittyy johonkin, mutta tosi tyytyväinen ja nauravainen poika suurimman osan ajasta kuitenkin. Ei vain näy valokuvissa aina!

Kiitos Milla!
