four inch fox fur

In honor of her grandma Sue, I've posted a picture of them together in February. I would have never gotten the outfit for Eden except it was a hand me down from a wealthy family, and I just reduce to a fit of giggles each time she wears it. It's pretty stinkin cute. So here they are decked out in all their glory. I love animals and not a big fan of furs but what the heck? Fox, rabbit and baby seal keep you warm.

spring celebration

I want to say spring has been here for weeks now, but we've been having incredibly sunny warm days and then a week of cold rain and clouds. Particularly on Edens birthday, yesterday, the 1st. Despite the 50 degree weather and wet ground, we still pulled off a super fun party. It was a lot of fun to decorate and make handmade things here and there. It was a spring/bird themed party. Eden loves birds (so do I). There were some special touches, a banner (I made ages ago), flower cut out fruit kabobs, and my favorite korean bbq on sticks. The house was crammed jammed to its capacity and it overflowed into our back patio (thank goodness!). I was overwhelmed by the love and support of our friends just to come and celebrate life. Each year is a beautiful thing to watch my girl blossom and grow into who God made her to uniquely be. She brings such joy to my heart. It was a day to remember always. Looking back I get all giddy inside just thinking about it. Happy Birthday, Eden, you are such a gift.
