maria turns eighteen

Happy Birthday Beautiful Girl.

The cake was a bit crumb-challenged.  We also left our cake plate at Dan and Alicia's so we had to break out the Christmas one.  It worked.

These people were there.

And that's about that.

Eighteen years ago we were so happy to see you.  Here am I dressing you the morning you were born.

And you Sidney, the two of you on your way to the lake right now.

M'ria, M'ria. This whole family is lucky you're in it. 

Happy Birthday, love forever, Mom and Dad and everybody
