Birthday party!!

We celebrated Caroline's first and Mike's 33rd birthdays in style this weekend. We had a bunch of friends come over for food, drinks, cake and an all-around good time. Thanks to everyone for coming and showering our darling with lots of fun gifts! Mike even got a present or two :)

Happy birthday to you (both)!

The birthday duoThe spread- I was cooking for days :)Oh yeah, its my birthday. What, I don't look excited enough for you?With the cake before it got devoured...Oh I so wish we had gotten the cake eating on video. You can see from Mike's expression here how funny it was. She took her piece of cake in one hand and raised it in the air. Then she stuffed it in her mouth and chowed down ferociously. It was literally like cookie monster. She was going mad, couldn't get enough, cake bits and icing flying everywhere.Opening presentsGetting a gift from Gia, Mateo and Raffi. Caroline was so excited to see Gia again. She was just giving her hugs and snuggles and wanting to sit on her lap the whole time. Caroline obviously misses her!Our friends Amy and Taylor made the trip down from Portland with their new baby Noah- less than a month old and cute as a button. So tiny!!Our friends Lynne and Andrew brought over their daughter Ellie who is 9 months old and adorable.Our friends Courtney, Steve and Casey just got back from a trip to the Cayman Islands, so we were excited they could make it for the festivities.
