 Laura & Katie bought some flowers the day before, and set them up for Krissy to find before she woke up on her birthday

They also brought her breakfast in BED!  She chose the menu...actually, she got to choose the menu for the whooole day, and she chose very well

We babysit for a church in town every Thursday.  We brought cupcakes to make it more fun - and it was!

Everyone wanted to celebrate Krissy's birthday!  McDonald's was giving away a free sandwich, and Dunkin Donuts gave away free iced coffee

Cream Puffs for dessert @ lunch

Because we were going to be heading off to a movie late that night, we had preschool nap time!  Complete with stories, and snacks - mmmm

Thanks for the book suggestions, Leah!  They were great!

Krissy's supper plate before she ate on it!  She was decorating while waiting for everyone...

GIFT TABLE

Presents and more presents!  The phone is really Jarod and Anna calling   They sang and "sat in" on the party over speaker...

German Chocolate Cake!  Completely homemade by Mom, from Aunt Ruth's recipe - whoooa baby!

The first showing of Prince Caspian at midnight!!!  The older Danahers, along with Lindsey & Aaron Quann came with us!  This was something Krissy really wanted to do for her birthday, and we all happily went along with it. 

 All the great stuff!  I give it one reallllly biiiig thumbs UP!  lol

Recent Happenings....kinda

Leah Molina, a friend from Indiana, came for a visit in April.  We had lotsa fun together!!

We went to DC a couple times.  This is the Archives and White House

"Office of Thrift Supervision"  -- We thought maybe they needed some new managment and uh, yeah...that would be us! 

DC was very pretty at that time of year.  Tulips, blossoms, and then there was us... *wink*

"TTTTTT"

The Mall at sunset and night fall.  *ahhhh*

Right before Leah's visit, Vanessa Myers (another friend from Indiana) was also in the area! 

Matt, Krissy, and Laura went to meet up with her along with Heather & Caleb Murray.  A nice visit
