Happy Birthday Amelia Jayne!

Happy 6th Birthday Amelia Jayne! We love you! We didn't have a formal birthday party this year for Amelia because we are going to Duluth with Mary and Ron on Mother's day weekend as part of her birthday gift. We started giving the two older kids a choice of a party or going to Duluth for their birthdays. In the fall Paul chose to go on a trip, and that's what we've done for the last two years with my mom and Tim and probably will continue to do that in the future as it's one of Paul's most favorite places to visit. So this spring we gave Amelia the same option and she wanted to go to Duluth too. We've been wanting to find a time to make it to Duluth with Kevin's mom and Ron and finally will have that chance.

Tonight we had just a small little dinner at our house for Amelia. I made beef roast, mashed potatoes, steamed carrots, corn and homemade bread. For dessert we had chocolate cupcakes with homemade buttercream frosting and vanilla ice cream and cotton candy ice cream (Amelia's choice!). She seemed to enjoy her evening and was quite beat when Kevin put her to bed!

Amelia bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning while getting ready for the bus!
Walking out to the bus!

Blowing out her candle on her birthday cupcakes!
Wearing her crown from school!

Amelia with her "Uncle" Jeff...she wanted to make sure we told her Godfather Jeff to come for dinner!

Opening her gifts
Amelia received a whole stack of cards in the mail today, she had a great time opening her gifts after dinner and cupcakes. I can't believe she is six already!

We love you Amelia Jayne!! Happy birthday baby girl!
