One Big Birthday Bash

Graham turned six yesterday! This Friday Bea and Inga will be three, and our baby is one on the following Wednesday. We celebrated our week of birthdays last night with family and friends. In the chaos of fifteen children, thirteen candles, five cakes, and numerous sword fights and skipping princesses I felt so blessed. Just a year ago we did not know most of our guests. Our gracious God has surrounded us with thoughtful, caring friends who are raising children to be followers of Jesus. We are so blessed!

On guard!

The kids played before we ate

You're almost one, big boy!











Present time!



Inga was VERY excited about the little puppies she received from her good friend Ella!



Bea loves her puppies, too!




Aunt Katie and Uncle Tim gave Graham a lion marionette.



One of our favorite pictures of the evening in which our good friend Nick made a heroic leap across the family room and rescued a glass of wine from his one year-old.


Cousins :)


Will liked his presents, but he really liked shaking the tissue paper the best of all.
