We had a birthday party for Elizabeth and Anna on Saturday.  We started a tradition of having their ‘big’ party together since their birthdays are only a month apart. We usually have a small ‘family’ party on the day of their actual birthdays, and then we have  a big party where we invite friends on a date somewhere in-between their actual birthdays. This year, we were unexpectantly celebrating their birthdays in America. We were so very grateful that there were some new friends that could come to their party and help them feel special on their ‘birthday’!

Erica made an “Ice Cream” themed cake – the girls always LOVE the cakes that Erica makes for them! 

Playing with new friends.

Nate kept scooting closer and closer – he was pumped that it was not all girls at the party!

Always room for one more!
