To recapture another birthday celebration is never too much
because pictures really do tell a story and
it's so good to go back in years to come.
Even the fact that I could not get a decent family photo
reminds me of the mini chaos after Jade's sincere table prayer
and the cookie place cards eaten upon getting seated ...
hence I can explain Koen's smeared up face
but not his expression or the fact that Evy is hiding.
It is, after all, their birthdays we are celebrating!
Koen gave me a smile before he blew out the candle,
While Evy was not too sure about all the attention.
Our furniture was squeezed together to have the table spread out long,
so we were feeling nice and cozy.
Gifts were given and opened and everyone was happy!
On this school night, there was not much lingering ...
and the girl who loved her new boots and pet carrier and paw patrols
made sure it all went with her
still trying to avoid the camera.
It's hard being cute.
Koey and Evy
we wish you a very Happy Birthday!
We thank God for you and
pray for His daily love and protection over you.
Love, Papa and Mimi

How is it that Evy is 3 already!!! Wow. Such sweet children and comments from their beloved Mimi. Yes, these are the pictures they are going to look back at someday with much fondness.
Time flies with grands! A happy birthday to your 7 and 3 year old!
Those times around a crowded table, with lots of noise and commotion, mean lots of love. Sweet post.
I think you are great at capturing the moments! I remember the joy when these two 'birthday grands' were born. Yes, time does fly!
So cute... it just cracks me up that Evy is camera shy and yet you got a picture of her with all her birthday loot. Looks like a lot of fun!
