Birthday Party!

Mira and Amelia had a lovely birthday party today! It was wonderful to see so many of our family members for a long visit. Thanks so much to everyone who could come (and to those of you who sent gifts, even if you couldn't come. But we missed you!)

We had a delicious lunch (honey bun sandwiches (yum!), pasta salad, fresh fruit, and chips), a delicious if not slightly-too-sweet cake, and Mira and Amelia opened lots of great presents!

The girls enjoyed playing with their cousins for the day. Amelia and Chris are resting now, and Mira is watching a video to relax. Here are a few photos from today.
