Paloma's Big Top Birthday

As Amy said in her posts, (thanks, Amy!) the circus theme was appropriate for our family! Plus, we wanted to celebrate BIG for our big girl and she had a great day. She may not remember the day, but she just might think she does someday as she hears everyone else talk about it!

It may look like a big crowd, but it was only family, Jackie, Nesha, our friends Dan & Tracie (who have 5 kids, are expecting their 6th, and brought two cousins just for fun since they had room in their Suburban) and our friends from church (just Frank & the boys could make it out of their family of five--their daughter Maddie was baptized on the same day as Carmen when they were babies, and my friend Abbey used to be an English teacher and even a yearbook adviser).

We were thrilled that Rachel could make it before she shipped off to the Air Force a couple of days later and that Andrea could come while she was home from UT for the first time.

Sorry the pictures are so jumbled, but I'm so far behind and I have a zillion other things I want to post and say.
