Lucy turns 1!

While Lucy doesn't officially turn one until Wednesday, we celebrated a little early so that her Daddy could be there to enjoy her party. Jeff leaves tomorrow for Alaska to hunt moose. He will be gone for as long as 2 weeks! The kids don't yet understand that they will be without their Daddy for that long, but Jeff and I are having a hard time with it. Just knowing that we wont be together gives both of us anxiety. We will miss him and he will miss us so much! Pretty sure that the tears will flow tomorrow morning when we drop him off at the airport.

Anyhow, here are some fun pictures of the party we had at the park with our wonderful families!

We celebrated Jeff's birthday too a few days early

Lucy never did have any of her cupcake. She wasn't even remotely interested!

Gage enjoyed opening Lucy and Daddy's presents

Jeff's mom, dad, sister Jennie, and her son Austin

Lucy was so happy and it wasn't difficult to get some smiley pictures!

Love you babygirl! You've blessed our lives in so many ways!
