Shasta's First Birthday

 Shasta's First Birthday Party was held at Merlin Olson Park - Randy and I got there late - we had a flat tire on the way - and thanks to Firestone's great service (sarcasm) we were only and hour and a half late!!
It was a cold day - we all had on jackets and hoodies but were not deterred enough by the cold to not have fun!
The little girls all had a ball playing together and
Nick and Sara spoiled them with treat bags filled with toys and candy.  This is a picture of the group - it is interesting that Emily is holding Meili (Kaleena's baby) and Kaleena is holding Ruby (Emily's baby)!

They went all out for Shasta's party.  Good job Mom and Dad!!











Shasta - enjoying her birthday cake.  Nick and Sara had made her two cakes - both in the shape of a Shasta soda pop can.  They were works of art!  This is Shasta's small personal cake.  We all shared the large Shasta can. (cake)









Shasta wasn't sure about this hat!  It reminded me of Wedge's first birthday when they made him wear a hat too! It didn't bother her too much though.

Emily posing with Ruby who is not sure she is enjoying this whole day- Gigi is in the shot too!


 Our oldest granddaughters - and the silliest!  Chloe has lost a tooth as you can see and Audrey is her buddy.  They are going through a phase where they can't just smile for the camera, they have to pull faces.  Chloe is better at that than Audrey.  Audrey is just looking sweet.  They like the hats!!

 Kennedy is showing us how she can stick out her tongue and spit.  Her new talent! We all got a big kick out of it!! She is hilarious and uninhibited!

 Gigi is saying cheese to the best of her ability.  She had a squirt gun in her bag of toys which she really enjoyed!!
 Meili is eating ice cream with a little wooden spoon.  The kids all got cake in ice cream cones and their own individual ice cream cups.  Meili had a hat on but soon realized that if you pull on the elastic string it flips you in the face.  She didn't like the hat anymore after that.
