Jill's First Birthday Party

Jill had a rockin' first birthday party this past weekend.  We had a few kids, lots of adults and too much fun!




The kids get ready to break open the pinata.  I was lame and made them do the pull-string kind.  I learned my lesson when after pulling all strings it didn't open!  So the kids beat it with their hands until the lid broke off and it fell to the floor!




What I like to affectionately call the "Candy Scramble."  It reminds me of the Calf Scramble at the Rodeo, only with no calves, or dirt, or ropes, or announcer.  So, it doesn't really remind me of it at all.  I just like the name!




Even Jill tries to corral her some grub!




Just too cute!







Jake's turn to help Jill open presents.  They are reading the card.







Next, Josh's turn to help.






Now, Owen's turn to help.








Jill doesn't want to push the stroller, she wants a ride!

Jill, for the millisecond she wasn't trying to rip off her crown.

Happy Birthday Jill!

All I can say is, "Happy Birthday, My Little Princess!"

Jill is 1 Year Old today!

I could never have imagined the craziness of having 3 kids.  But I have also witnessed the wonderful and tender side of my 2 boys who love and adore their sister.  The sheer joy that Jill experiences when her brothers get home from school every day is a sight to behold.  And she is Daddy's little princess for sure!

Jill has simply been a marvelous addition to our home.  What a wonderful, blessed year we have had with her!
