strawberry

It seems like every time Honey Girl has had a birthday we have been busy with one thing or another.  For her first birthday we moved, Josh was in Oklahoma for her third, and we moved again for her fourth.  Her second birthday was the most normal with a party, food, decorations, friends, family, and fun.  But, even though we moved for her fourth birthday, I was sure to make it as special for her as possible, starting with a snap of her the morning of her fourth birthday as tradition goes. 
Ida was such an delightful and adorable baby.
Her labor was so easy, for which I was so grateful.
She came to us as a complete surprise which was the most difficult blessing we had encountered to that point.

Ida decided to have a strawberry theme birthday this year.
So mature, no?
She started down the Strawberry Shortcake path and somehow ended up with just strawberries.  I thought it was brilliant!  She has always had great taste.
I thought one big cupcake would be so cute with her strawberry theme. 
Rainbow finger jello is always fun.
We love this little girl.
