Also while my sister was here we decided to do family pictures with my mom’s side of the family. We finally have a picture with everyone. Dave and I have been really bad and this is actually our first little family picture as well.
The whole family

Just the grandkids
And now for our little family pictures. I am very pleased with how they turned out. And hey, maybe after six years of marriage we will finally do a Christmas card.
My oldest sister and her family came to Utah for a month to visit. It was such a good time spent with her and her kids. For those of you that know my sister, you know she is very talented at all she does. So while she was here I had her do London’s one year pictures. They turned out so cute!!
My sister also did London’s birthday announcement. I blurred out a part of it, so that weird area really didn’t look like that.
I am way behind on my blogging, but I finally downloaded Windows Live Writer which should make blogging easier for me so I will keep it updated more. London’s birthday was July 28. I decided to do a Minnie Mouse theme party since she has already been to Disneyland 3 times. It turned out really cute and we had a great time.
Please bare with me for all of these pictures, but you only turn one once. I was able to talk my mom and sister into helping me with some of the food. We did Minnie mouse rice krispie treats, white chocolate dipped oreos with sprinkles, strawberry minnie mouse cupcakes, ice cream, and of course London’s minnie mouse smash cake. I also left some cupcakes undecorated for the kids to decorate themselves.
London was all dressed up with her minnie mouse outfit and ears. But as soon as it was cake time she was stripped down to enjoy it!!
After enjoying her yummy cake, London opened her presents. She still isn’t quite into the opening part so she had plenty of help from her cousins that really understand the present thing.
We are so grateful for all of our families that were able to be with us to celebrate London. We are so grateful for London everyday and can’t believe how blessed we are to have her. She continues to love new things everyday and is constantly surprising us!
We love you London!
