1st Birthday Bash






We had a wonderful week celebrating Paityn's birthday. Luckily my parents and Grandma were in town to make things even more exciting. We began festivities with a Rubber Ducky themed party on Sunday August 24th at the Lynch Residence where we enjoyed watching Paityn open too many presents and dig into the amazing cake that Lyn made. That was probably the highlight, as it should be at any 1st birthday party!

On Paityn's birthday, Tuesday August 26th we relaxed around the house during the day and let Paityn enjoy all of her new toys. At night we headed to dinner, Geoff, Paityn and me, my Mom and Dad, Grandma, and Anmaree! We went to Tepanyaki for a yummy dining experience. Paityn loved watching the fire, the smoke, and the food being cooked. She especially liked the ice cream they brought her at the end of her meal. As you can see in the pictures she was a happy camper, and we couldn't stop laughing at her laughing and adorable facial expressions!

I think it was a birthday she will always rememeber....at least through pictures and stories we tell her!

What a fun party. You really know how do put n a party. Everyone had so much fun and the food was wonderful. I still cannot get over how Paityn hacked away at the cake. It was fun to watch. She is so darling. What a treasure she is.

So glad you had so much fun, hope you are feeling better than you were Joy.
I would like to know how you get the pics into the square too, and please, how do you get the text between the pictures. Mine always come above whatever copy I put.
No chance to put anything relating to them.

She sure looks like she was having a great time. I love pics of the babies eating cake. She has the most beautful smile.

Gosh!, she's so dang cute. I love the picture of her winking!! Does she close one eye when she laughs, or is she winking? I'm asking b/c me and my sister do that, some weird reflex, but it's cute w/Paityn!!

How are you feeling? You don't look pregnant yet, or even sick. :) I still am not used to you with short hair either.

We need to call you soon since we'll be in Orem this weekend. Maybe we'll have our regular dinner at Cathy's if you can come!?!
