And a Wonderful Birthday it was!

We are back from the wild's of Las Vegas... and what a great time we had at Erin's Birthday. Daughter in laws family and friends are all wonderful and make you feel so at home....Erin's little friends are delightful...they was lots of food, delicious cake, and wonderful company...so many good memories that it made our trip home seem like 10 minutes as opposed to 3 hours..

Well I have to say that there is a lot of difference between 7-9 .. Sweet Erin is growing up so fast ... As a person you makes there living out of faces...I could not help but stare at all the many changes that have taken place in Erin's face...as Richard said.. the little young girl is making way for the little young lady. She is just as sweet as ever...loves everyone and has enough imagination for any 6 people. She is so much like her father...no fear, no holding back when it comes to a challenge and constantly filling her head with knowledge of wildlife and nature. She is so like her mother in her beauty and caring nature, Erin is already very nurturing and respectful of others...we are amazed.

I was not able to get a whole lot of pictures this time...I spent most of my time talking with her and just watching her... she is very shy when the camera is pointing at her...so most of the ones I did get if her..I stole! She is going through a 'Veronica Lake' phase with her hair... over one eye and rather mysterious ...but I do like unique traits in children ...sets them apart...

So I posted some shots that I took of Erin over on my PBASE Account... please take a peek...
