Our "Little one", "Googs", "Sevan Elizabeth", "Sevs" has turned one!





I can't believe she's a year old already. All the names in the title are what the kids call her, and btw Elizabeth is NOT her middle name. We had sooo much fun celebrating her first birthday with her. She learned a new word, balloon, which sounds more like boon. So know she goes into each room points up to the ceiling and says "boon". She even tries to sing happy birthday. We've had a blast watching the world through her eyes this last year. Words can't even describe her, all I know is she is a precious gift from God!
I had fun with decorating the house and making her cake. I've been watching "Ace of Cakes" lately so I got inspired to do a funky fondant cake. My friend Christa gave me this fondant recipe that was made from marshmallows so it was tastier than usual and not messy for the "first bite of cake picture." It was funny to watch her hold the piece of cake in one hand, munch on it, then she politely handed over the fondant.

She got the cutest outfits, shoes, books, and her own toys (instead of hand me downs). You can buy the shoes she got from her aunt Naomi at her website... http://www.bellajades.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=BJB&Product_Code=SS1002&Category_Code=SSL

Here's the update to Trent's new haircut


I added a bunch of his photos on facebook but forgot to put them on here as my follow up to the big day. So, as you see his hair is chopped and styling now. He likes his haircut because he thinks he looks like dad and all the attention he got at church was a lot of fun for him.
