New Years Eve 2009!!

Izabella's First Birthday Party!!
Izabella loves her ducky, so we had a ducky party!
A duck cake, duck sugar cookies, and even ducks floating
in a blue pond of cool aid.

It was so much fun! I am so
grateful for all of our family and friends that made Bella's
first birthday so wonderful. Even for those who were unable
to come to her party made sure the called and even sent
gifts. Thank you so all of you that love this little girl so much.
She has truly been blessed with so many people to love!!

Izabella was really good at opening presents, but mommy
and daddy still liked to help.

A Murder Mystery New Years Eve!!
Past, Pistols, And Passion
We decided that this year we wanted to do something different
for New Years. So we thought that a murder mystery dinner
would be a fun way to start off the new year. So we invited some
of our dearest friends, and planner a four course Italian dinner,
and an evening full of fun!!

I'm taking the picture and Mike was trying to put Izabella back
to bed. That didn't work and she ended up staying up with us
until 2:00am.
We all had so much fun and we just might have to
do this again!!
