The story of Tia's birthday (told backwards)

On Valentine's Day we celebrated Tia's birthday with a small cupcake party! We felt so fortunate to be able to fill our house with friends and love for baby girl even though our loved ones and family are so far away and even across oceans!




We had three different kinds of cupcake. Each kind was yummy!

but first, getting gorgeous before the party...





Earlier....
Tia's birthday was on Friday the 13th this year. Sspooookyyy... (not really)
When Tia woke up on her birthday she got a new bike and a new big wheel! Plus, she got a really cool fruit bouquet from Grandma Jean!





Before the party and the birthday- the decorating...here is the house all ready.
Here is Miss Jenny.
She has been taking care of Tia a bit and helping us out a bunch.
She and Tia decorated- it looked great.
Tia's finishing birthday touch. Happy 3rd birthday, girl!
