Sydney's Birthday

On Saturday, May 16th

We left for Utah

We picked up Gayle and were on our way.

It was an overcast day....nice for traveling.

We stopped at Perkins in Burley

for some lunch and when we got back 

on the road it started to rain.

By the time we hit the Snowville area

it was raining pretty hard and

continued for most of the remaining miles.

We dropped Gayle off at her mother's

house in Sandy

(her mother is 101 years old)

then drove back to Kevin's in Sugar House.

By the time we arrived everyone was

getting hungry so we went out

to eat at the Cowboy Grub restaurant.

On Sunday after church we celebrated

Sydney's birthday.

(also her cousin Cadie who is 4 days older)

Before the party there was a little time

for Sydney and Grandma to get

acquainted.

Soon it was time to open the 

birthday gifts!

She got this cute activity house from

Grandma & Grandpa Waite and Debbi.

We also brought a bag full of

hand-me-down clothes from Trudi 

which included some dresses 

Linda had made.

Sydney enjoyed her b-day gifts...

she did Okay for a little girl with a

pretty blue dress, book, play clothes & toys

Soon it was time for Birthday Cake

Lani & her sister made each of the little

girls their own "Smash" cake.

It had been a long day and by now

Sydney wasn't a very happy little girl

Debbi did her best to keep her happy

We all sang Happy Birthday then.....

watched as Sydney began eating

her cake, then.....

She got mad because the frosting

was too sticky !

It was a fun day celebrating this cute little

girls 1st birthday!
