Looks Who's One

That's right little Miss Penelope is one years old. If her first birthday is any indication of what the next ones are going to be like, mom and dad better be prepared for some pretty big celebrations. The house was full of family and friends along with a few of Penny's playmates. Jason worked the bbq and Martina made an incredible butterfly cake. Everyone thinks she has some pretty amazing cake decorating talents. Penny was treated to her very own butterfly cake and tore right into it. Once she got a taste of the sugary icing there was no turning back. Cake went everywhere. Then it was off to opening presents. Lets just say there are a lot of people that care about this little girl. She got books, dolls, a barn, musical instruments from mom and dad and of course some clothes. She even got her first pair of puma shoes from Papa. She then played with her new toys and said good bye to all her guests. All in all it was a wonderful day.

















ALL TIRED OUT FROM A DAY OF PARTYING






YUM, CAKE!!



The family also went to New Brunswick for a few days with Topher and Tina. The family hiked some trails at Fundy, ate a four pound lobster, walked out on the beach when the tides were out and played on the playground equipment. The next day consisted of visiting Hopewell rocks which has the highest tides in the world (46ft). Topher and Tina kayaked through the rocks when the tide was high and then everyone walked on the ocean floor later that day. Penny loved walking on beach and picking up rocks.






With all the excitement about Penny turning one, Jason's birthday may have been forgotten. Fortunately Martina surprised Jason a couple of times with guests and cake. She made another incredible cake. This time it was a golf theme. All in all it has been quite a week. Oh and the really big news is that Penny started walking last night. With a bunch of guest here she took off and walked right around the kitchen and living room. Of course she thought she was something special. Yes this little girl knows how to turn it on.
