This Is The Birthday That Never Ends

We've been extremely busy this week with our company here, but it's been so much fun. They had a great experience and really enjoyed their time in Brasil I think. But, they feel no peace about this being the place for them. So, back to Louisiana they go, excited that God gave them direction and this experience, but wondering what in the world will come I'm sure (also excited about that part too though, just the process of watching that unfold for them). They are visiting an orphanage with a friend of ours now and then this afternoon we will be taking them to catch their plane. Pictures of our week to come. But for now...

I just loaded up some more pictures on the computer and thought I'd post, yes, more of Asa's birthday pictures. Here you go:


When I was putting the girls down for naps that afternoon, I was taking a couple of shots of Asa in Hadley's room. Hadley decided it'd be a good idea for me to take a picture of her sleeping...so she promptly gave the proper pose.












On our way to a birthday treat. We went out to eat at McDonald's for Asa's birthday...mmm, hot fudge sundaes here we come.








Daddy and the kids in the parking lot...chomping at the bits. Notice the birthday crown. Hadley got that in February for her birthday...it was actually her cake topper.













Nice shot, Joel. :) To his credit, he actually did get better shots where the top of my head was actually included, but the kids looked better in this one. So, Mama sacrifices yet again. ;)













Eating some grub at "Cows" (if you don't remember, that's what our kids call McDonald's for some reason).








Me and my girl.
















The fun 1 yr. old.


















A series of pictures of the kids loving on the birthday girl.


I love this facial expression. "Can we be done now, please?"

Time for more hugs.


Yep, we did it. We crossed the line. She's had enough hugs. :) Happy Birthday...again! :)
