Hayley's Birthday Party 5

Our final batch of pictures from Hayley's first birthday party: Collin drying off with Grandma after the pool; Collin sunning it up with his friend Kady; Sherry and birthday girl Hayley; Sherry and other granddaughter Alethia; and the three cousins taking a batch together. Happy birthday, Hayley!





Hayley's Birthday Party 4

After everybody ate their Elmo cake, we went out to the front yard where the kids played in the pool and the sprinkler.

After opening presents, we moved back outside for the cake part of the festivities -- which Hayley dug into, face first.

More pictures from Hayley's first birthday party. After lunch we moved indoors so Hayely could open all her presents. Lots of fun toys!

As promised, here's the first of several posts of pictures from Hayley's first birthday party. It was a beautiful day outside, so we had the party on our deck. Lots of fun was had by all!

Cousins in the Bath

Our New Fountain

We recently redecorated the area in the front of our house and put in a new fountain. Collin and Hayley kind of liked it, as you can see from this video. (And, no, we don't normally let them drink from it -- that was a one-time while-it's-new kind of thing.)
