Bryn is 2!!

Today our girl is 2!

We had a great party yesterday with family and friends and Bryn had a ball. Unfortunately not everyone was able to be here because Mother Nature decided to be nasty and make it too cold for those who had planned on coming from out of town to travel (we missed you!) but we had a great time with those who could make it. Thanks to everyone for helping us celebrate Bryn's first birthday in Canada.

Since CNY was just this past Thursday and we still had those decorations up we went with "The Backyardigans in China" theme. We're nothing if not diverse!

Today we had another little party for just the three of us. Happy Birthday, Bryn, we love you!



Smile!


Bryn spent her 1st birthday at the Beijing Zoo where we saw the pandas. We had a beautiful panda this year in the form of a birthday cake.


Wow! Is everyone singing for me?!


Mmmmm....


Even though you can't see their faces, I love this photo of Bryn and Caia.


Blowing out the candle at today's mini-party.


She loves cake so she's pretty careful most of it ends up in her mouth!


Yay! I'm two!

Happy Birthday Bryn! You sure know how to throw a party. We're thrilled we were able to be there to celebrate with you for your first and second birthdays! We especially loved the panda cake. It tasted as good as it looked. You looked very pretty in your Chinese dress.

Love Shea and Caia

Happy Birthday, beautiful girl!

I love the theme you chose for Bryn's party! And that cake is fabulous! It is so pretty.

Bryn looks gorgeous in her dress with her jade jewellery. I think my favourite pic, though, is the one at the end where Bryn has that huge smile. It looks like she had an awesome birthday!

Lots of love,
Monica, Paul and Claire
