A Special Birthday

A Birthday celebration, even in Indonesia, always includes a cake and Tehya was right there to help. It turned out to be some nice time alone, just the two of us, as everyone else was busy with other things and the Birthday girl was napping.

As I was taking the picture, she said, "This is for your blog, right Grammy?" I laughed, and asked her if she wanted me to put it on my blog. She said, "Yes."

Sprinkles for the final touch.

The room is ready.

The goodie bags.

The guests arrive.












We all sang Happy Birthday. It seems to be an international song.

Everyone had a great time! Happy Birthday Makenna! We feel like we are just now getting to know you. We sure do love you and are so happy to be able to share this day with you!
PS Also wishing a very Happy Birthday to Ben, whose Birthday we are missing.
