Thanksgiving 2011

This Thanksgiving we spent with the Pierces.  Last year they brought us a Thanksgiving feast because we were so sleep deprived and could barely function, but this year was much different.  We didn't have a traditional turkey (except for Aubrey) but we had some yummy ribs, homemade mac and cheese, and some great homemade pies.  We had a great dinner talking, laughing, and watching Aubrey play.

Aubrey's 1st Birthday Party

Aubrey's owl theme birthday party started out with some homemade cards and some creative trimmings along the way...






On November 12 we had the birthday party for little miss Aubrey.  To begin the party well Aubrey decided to take a 3 hour nap!  We even had to wake her up for her own party :).  Grandma made a beautiful cake that even had a mini owl, dairy-free cake for Aubrey.


Aubrey really enjoyed her first taste of sugar and had a fun getting that frosting all over her face :).








The presents were a big hit. She even got three tea sets!




Football from Uncle Jon


Grandpa Pierce even made Aubrey her own stocking :)






We had so much family come from out of town to celebrate with us!!





The parents and great grandparents were extra happy





The owl theme continued to the favors...


Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated with us!!  We can't believe our little girl is one!
