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 !
