Birthdays All Around...

A very special event happened on 4 December 2008 (as we write the date here): Juliana Raine Umble turned the Big 4! We celebrated this once-in-a-lifetime, "golden" birthday by packing a picnic breakfast to eat at a new playground downtown. Mommy and Daddy took the day off language study to party, and we all had a good time. Enjoying the "suen-ko-maa" (playground) on her big day

After an afternoon of making whoopie pies to share at preschool, Mommy got tired of the never-ending process and dumped remaining batter in a cake pan for an impromtu whoopie cake - delicious with peanut butter icing! Juliana was tickled pink.
Here she shows the balloon gifts she received from Ginny, talented Korean missionary that lives next door to us with her family.

And just for fun, some pix of the younger brother who will have his own birthday in two days!

Give my nephew a haircut! HA! I think he's looking more like the Umbles every day. : ) Loved Juliana's birthday outfit at the playground. Thanks for the pics!

Juliana...Looks like you had a fabulous birthday. We helped Sophie turn 4 two weeks ago, and look forward to my birthday on the
30th...I can't wait to be 4 like you! We'll miss you, but it looks like you had a fun party without me. Love, Kaycee.
