First the presents.....

Saturday we had a birthday party for several of our family members/friends. Laura and Hailie both celebrated birthdays in December, and Emily, Brandie, Ray and Danny have January birthdays. So we all got together for dinner, cake and party fun! Here they are opening their presents after dinner. On the table in front you will see a copy of Ray's newest book, "Song of The Selkie." I am going to read it tonight, so stay tuned for a book review. By the way, in case you don't read Ray's blog, (but of course you do!) a selkie is a mythical Irish creature...but getting back to the party, we counted 25 people there, so we all had a very good visit. Good thing, too, as the coming weather is going to make future plans a little dicey! Posted by Picasa

It was a really great time. Everyone thought so.

You sure can throw a party momma.

I just want to thank everyone for making Brandie feel like such a part of the family. It really meant a lot to her, and really touched our hearts. I am proud that I have a family that so readily and willingly opens their hearts to new family members. Thank you for everything you did to make a little girl feel loved and accepted!

Of course we would accept other children, we always have, but Brandie makes it so easy, she is a great kid and I am glad she likes us.
