Planes, Cars & a wedding

Move out of the way, I haven't gotten my drivers's license yet.

Man, that flash is really bright.

Alright, who keeps taking my picture when I'm asleep in my car seat. You know that pictures of people sleeping aren't always the most flattering type of pictures. I know you wouldn't want me to take your picture while you're sleeping, right?

Here I am, at Auntie Domi and Uncle Jimmy's wedding. How do you like my suit, I got it tailor made at this place, maybe you've heard of it, the Burlington Coat Factory.

If you get a chance, you should check it out, maybe you'll find a suit just as good as mine.

Here's a picture of Auntie Domi and Uncle Jimmy. If you get a chance to talk to them, have them explain their testimony of what happened 6 months before the wedding, it will blow your mind to see the hand of God in their lives.

Hey mom, I think they're cutting the cake right now.

Hey mom, what's up with my left eye

Oh yeah, one of the monumental things that happened right after my 1st Birthday was that I started to walk. Yes, I know you have all been waiting for this and I knew I would get the hang of it sooner or later. Now, you can't stop me.

1st Birthday Celebration

On Saturday, September 13th, we celebrated my 1st Birthday, which was 4 days short of my actual birthday, September 17th. First of all, I want to send a big THANK YOU to all that attended and helped with my birthday party. My parents appreciated everything. I was so happy to see all of you. We had so much fun with the musical chairs, pinata, food and just hanging out with all of you. You know what, my birthday party really showed me how much I'm loved. I'm completely thankful to God for every single one of you. I love you all.

Here's Stephen-Fua and his dad, Pastor Tuvai checking out the "party scene".

Auntie Marisela, Auntie Zulema and my friend, Beli' always ready to strike a pose for the camera.

Auntie Mercedes can I have that?

It's time for "Musical Chairs."

Alright everybody, you understand the purpose of this game, right?

Remember there's a cool prize for the winner...contrary to popular belief...it's not a 52 inch plasma T.V.

Ahhh, how cute "lily" and her auntie domi.

The adults were a little jealous of us, kids...because we were the only ones having all the fun with the musical chairs. So we decided to let them in on the action, not to bad for adults.

Auntie Christina, watch out for the guy in front of you with the blue baseball cap, Uncle Vurne, he is the reigning musical chair champion

Throw your hands in the air...

Uncle Vu, I don't know if that balloon is going to make 'Bella happy

Me and Ashley

It's "PINATA" time

I'm not sure if I get it...you take this stick and hit this red starhanging thing. Well here goes nothing. Here's my first shot at hitting the pinata, mom told me it would be best if she helped me. I guess...

You got it, Bella'

Hey, Nathaniel, how did you convince your dad to let you get a "tatoo" on your arm, I'm gonna see if it works with my dad.

Oh come on Kristi, you hit like a girl.

OK, Kloie just hit it a little bit higher

Hey, what are you guys waiting for?

Juliana and her mom trying to pick up the candy

Ohhh, I get it, so that's what happens when you hit the pinata. Man, I guess every one gets crazy over "free" candy.

Are you serious, is this all for me? No way...God is good, right dad?

Awright, mom, I'm ready for the cake!

Auntie Michelle is sharing the "Word".

Preach it, Uncle Randy!

One of things, mom and dad wanted to do for me on my first birthday was to dedicate me to the Lord. So you might ask what does that mean, well you see since God gave me to mom and dad, they wanted to give me back to God. They realize that ultimately I belong to God and God is in control of every part of my life. God has given mom and dad the responsibility of raising me and you know what, so far they're doing a great job. So in this picture, you can see Dad is praying for me, as he and mom dedicate me to the Lord.

It's cake time...so you say I have to blow out a candle before I can have cake.

Before...

and after !
