Sariah's Birthday

We finally got to celebrate Sariah's 21st birthday this week. She was visiting friends in Utah on her birthday (a generous birthday present from Dad). We'd like to think that it was because of the snowstorms that her visit was extended a couple of days. Needless to say, we were very happy to have her home safe and sound. The celebration was rather spur of the moment and, I guess, quite typical.

We had the traditional birthday march and presented her with her one beautifully wrapped gift. She was "surprised" to get just what she wanted.

Unfortunately, her cake was kind of plain but that was just because it was too hot for the frosting. It's hard to believe that as a child, I loved to decorate cakes. I think that all changed when I became a dietitian. :) The candles? We gave her all we could find. For some reason, I have a hard time keeping a years supply on hand. Sariah didn't complain about the candles, though, as she could easily blow them all out and have her wish come true. She did get a hardy rendition of "Happy Birthday to You" from her parents. Cami was too sick to talk let along sing. We hope Sariah knows that we love her a million bunches!
