Happy Thanks-Birthday!

We had a great time at Thanksgiving! The trip to Arkansas was about 11 hours long but we managed just fine. It was probably a good thing that Michael didn't drive though.


We also combined Turkey Day with a family birthday party for everyone that couldn't make it down for the party we had in Louisiana. It was a lot of fun! Michael's cousin Mary was there to help him open packages and play with his new toys.

Uncle Joe and Aunt Nattie brought the neat Elmo cake! It was so cool. Michael definitely liked it!

Happy First Birthday!

Michael's first birthday was a success! Everyone at the party here in Louisiana had a great time playing, eating, and laughing (as you can see)...

Here we are singing "Happy Birthday."

Then it was time for the birthday boy to chow down on some cake!


After the party we wrapped up the evening by heading to downtown New Orleans to see some friends.
