Growing older, and trying to do it gracefully....

The Party Planners
Loving her swing set!
Getting ready to hit the monkey bars!
Yes, Jeff is under her!  This is right before she did a chin up!!!
The girls I love!!!!

OK - I will admit it.. It is my birthday week! My sister Barbara and Ainsley planned a wonderful surprise dinner for me last night. It was a gorgeous day, and a perfect evening. Thank you girls for such a lovely party! . Of course, having two precious daughters this year to ring in another year with her Mama makes it that much easier to be 40 again!

Blessings,
Diana

If I haven't said it before, you are one of my inspirations when I think of how old I'll be when mei mei comes...

You ARE more beautiful and graceful with each passing moment.

Glad it was a fun party.

Love,
Lisa

You are a sneaky little person....I was just thinking the other day---I wonder when Diana's birthday is. I truly had a feeling it was coming up. Happy BIRTHDAY my beautiful and young friend. I hope you call today on your way home ---it is Tuesday!

Is that an Old Navy shirt Ruby's wearing? I just got Olivia 1 just like it (she's wearing it in the new pics I just posted).

We'll be getting a swingset soon. O's still afraid of the swings, but likes the slide now (her fear went away while at your house).
