Joy's birthday party

As I mentioned in Joy's birthday post, our birthday tradition is to have dinner and cupcakes at the cemetery.  Last year the weather did not cooperate, but this year it was gorgeous and we had a great family time together.  The cemetery where Joy is buried is quite lovely, so we even took a little stroll around after dinner.  Like any good mom does, I'd love to share pictures of our celebration, so here are a few glimpses into our evening.


I don't really care for this picture of myself, but it's the only one we got that I was in!






We sang "Happy Birthday" to Joy before we had cupcakes, and I think Noah was a bit confused. He was looking around a little like "where's this mysterious Joy person?"!  That certainly didn't stop him from enjoying the cupcake!
 





I love this sweet picture of Noah and his sister!


Happy birthday, sweet Joy!
