Birthdays, A Baptism & A Baby Blessing!

These past few weeks have been filled with busy days!  We have celebrated family birthdays, Sareya's baptism and Evelyn's blessing.  Here are a few photo highlights.  
 Our birthday girl - Lillian!
She turned 9 on October 14, 2012.
She is such a sweetheart-
every year she has her hair cut and donates it to
Locks for Love which is a charity for
children with cancer. 
I love her hair long or short!
She and Ella are enjoying birthday cupcakes and homemade raspberry ice cream.

     Treygan, Alex and Sareya are also enjoying the treats.

 Sweet baby Evelyn and Grandma
 Hal  - the birthday boy! 

Celebrating with pecan pie - his favorite!

 Preston and friend - Lilyana (she IS just a friend!) 
           

Preston took Hal and I out to celebrate our birthdays.
He does this every year.  We went to the
Red Lobster with Preston and Lilyana -
his friend visiting from Columbia.

 The Woidka Family!!
We miss having Jessica, Adam, Gigi and Hailey and Conrad at
all of these family events. 
 I guess we will just have to wait to see them until the holiday season!!
Congratulations to Adam and Jessica on their new addition -
he will arrive next April!!
