Isabelle's 4th Birthday

For those of you that know us well, you know it was really hard to celebrate a birthday without all of our family and friends around. Isabelle was just sure that Emma, Sara, Malia, Camila and all of her other friends and cousins were going to show up here for her birthday. Even after we explained to her that they all lived far away and would not be coming to her party this year she still insisted that at least Ty was coming. He was "Flying on an airplane to surprise me."

she kept telling us. It was quite sad.
We still managed to have quite a celebration, even if it was just the 5 of us. Kennedy worked hard all week to make Isabelle this SUPER cute Hello Kitty Pinata and Tommy made her a fancy, and yummy, Hello Kitty cake. They both worked so hard to help Roger and I wrap

the gifts, decorate the house and make it a very special day for Isabelle. It worked. We had 3 days of non-stop partying. Isabelle was the little princess all weekend

long.......like she isn't a princess the rest of the time.

Thank you to all of you that sent cards, packages, called, sang and left messages on our phones. It really made us feel closer to all of you. We listened to your messages and all of you singing all the way to the Polynesian Cultural Center on Saturday. Trust me, some of you are a hoot to listen to. I won't name names.....Ashlee, Ahmad and Courtney. Was Brittney in there too? It was so bad we couldn't even tell for sure who it was or what you were saying and don't try

to blame in on your phones! Thanks guys. Love you.
