Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Greta's 1st Birthday!

My little girl turns 1 today. Oh, what a year it has been! She has brought more joy and happiness to our lives than either of us could have ever imagined. We enjoyed an incredible birthday party on Sunday. We had about 30 people over including 10 kids ranging from 1 to 9 years old. Greta really enjoyed herself. Kristi and I filled the house with 100 pink and red balloons. Greta absolutely loves balloons. She has been carrying them around the house since Sunday. The helium was out on Monday morning and they were all on the floor.

She had both sets of Grandparents for the weekend. Mom and Roger came from Cut Bank on Friday night and Fred and Angie came over Saturday morning from Pam and Jim's house. They are all amazed as to how well G can walk. She travels around the house like she has been walking for years.Grandma Carol, Grandpa Roger, Grandma Angie and Grandpa Fred

Greta's cake. Our neighbors Dave and Sarah made Greta's cakes. They were perfect.

Kristi decorated the table with cakes, pictures, plates, etc. Looks great Kristi!

Greta's "Super G" cake. Sweet!!!!

G and her cool parents. We gave her a hand with the "blowing out" of the candle. She can't quite figure out the blowing thing.
