Happy Birthday!

Kisses!

Too cute! Came out a little blury in the transfer.

It's official... Winona's first birthday has been celebrated and re-celebrate and celebrated again. This time with a fun music sing-along with friends. As the pictures show, the birthday girl was slightly overwhelmed by the whole thing, but busted a groove and clapped her hands when the music started. Happy Birthday, sweet Winona Lou!

Happy First Birthday, Winona Lou! We had a special celebration with Grammy and Grandpa Phil in town for the Thanksgiving/ Birthday weekend. Gammas Roberta and Marianne also joined us for parts of the weekend--lots of fun. Pictured here eating her birthday cake, coloring with G'pa Phil, at the park on her birthday with Daddy and riding her new bike from G'ma and KooKoo!

Who's this guy and where's my Daddy?

Julie and Winona take in the beauty of Smith Rock National Park.

First pony ride today-thanks to this great horse from Cousins Henry, Lexi and Oscar. I rode around the living room while Bodhi acted as my shepard dog rounding up all of my stuffed animals. I love the life of a cowgirl.

I'm accepting offers for my real pony...

Waiting for the Eugene Celebration Parade...clapping for the band...and playtime at home...

Here I am with my new puffer fish... and trying to look like my new puffer fish. (Thanks, George and Jacquie!)
Next two shots are to show off how cooperative I am about bedtime ("Just one more book, please?" and "Bedtime? Are you crazy? I can CRAWL!")

Winona has a new playspace in our house... she's giving it a drumroll welcoming.
