Party Time!

We had Eliana's birthday party today and it was a hit!  We used a pavilion that is behind our apartment building (free!) and ordered pizza, had Velveeta Rotel dip with tortilla chips and veggies (want to see some Americans put down some food...throw this down at a party!) ice cream and a Curious George cake.  All our little friends (and a few big friends too) were there, Eliana got some fun gifts and we just hung out and had a good time.  I know I've said it before but I'm so thankful for good friends here to do life with.  Being far away from our families and friends in the US is hard but God has been so gracious to give us community here.  We are so blessed!

One more time...Happy Birthday sweet Eliana!  We love you!




Curious George Decor


Scrambling for the Velveeta Rotel Dip


Yes this is an awesome cake and yes, my awesome husband decorated it!  I baked and made the icing and he did all the decorating.  What a man!




Enjoying her ice cream


This was one crazy party!


Our team leader's 14-year-old son gave Eliana an old Curious George that was his and made her a copy of the Curious George movie.  It was so sweet!
