the girls' birthday party

joint family party for the girls...with us and our parents and siblings (those that could make it!)

bailey's cake

rebekah's cake

didn't do a great job getting pics of everyone that was here...

rebekah picked this outfit out a week ago and had it all laid out on her bed...it was all modeled after Fern in Charlotte's Web. we just saw the movie. when Fern went to the fair at the end, she wore a yellow dress (this was her only dress that had any yellow IN it) and pigtails with red ribbons.

i LOVE this of Bailey - watching Rebekah get sung to

bailey had a ball with her cake! thanks, dad, for cleaning her up!

rebekah got a special doll from us for her birthday. each set of grandparents gave her a dress for her doll. and i had a doll bed that my dad MADE me when i was a little girl that my mom painted for rebekah's doll...and there were pillows on it that MY grandma had made for MY dolls. this is rebekah opening the bed. so special. i don't think she understands how special yet...one day she will.

it was a special night for everyone!
