Helen's 1st Birthday Party at Heritage Park 4-26-08

It is so hard to believe, but our good friend Kim's daughter, Helen had her 1st birthday today. Time is really flying!!!

When we arrived at Heritage Park, we were one of the first ones, so the girls and I made our way over to the shelter where Allen was setting up for the party. I spread the blanket out and let the girls play while everyone arrived. Once the group was there, we all made our way over to the train. Ansley and Emily rode with Vallery and Melissa, while Addison (Melissa's daughter) and Bailey rode with me. We made several loops around the track and the girls were all very excited. After the train ride we all walked over to the play ground to let the kids play for a while. Ansley was happy to hang out with Heidi and Scott on the family swing, while Valley and Emily ran around some. Bailey also decided to check out the equipment some. Unfortunately for Ansley and Heidi, Ansley got sick on the swing (motion sickness) so Melissa attended to Bailey while I got Ansley fixed up.


Soon it was time for everyone to head back from the playground in order to eat. We all enjoyed hotdogs. Ansley, Bailey, and Hellen were very cute sitting at the little table eating their food =) Soon it was the big moment to sing Happy Birthday. Hellen defiantly followed in Ansley's footsteps by picking at her cake vs. diving in. However, once they handed her a cupcake she went all in. Since it was getting close to nap time, we said our goodbyes and headed home.
