Happy Birthday Emi - Big #1

Today is Emi-chan's 1st Birthday!!!

It's crazy to think that she's already one. Time really does fly by so fast. It's amazing to see how much she has grown from the time that she was born till now and all the little things that she does. We are so proud of her and so very lucky to have her in our lives. We love you, Emi-chan!!!

Today we just kept it really simple because Blaine has a final today. It is such a blessing that Blaine could stay home and take his final. A BIG thanks to that professor, he made one wife very happy! We had cake and sang Happy Birthday. We are going to try to have her party later in the month, which should give us plenty of time to finish our backyard... hopefully... :)

Here's a little picture montage of our little girl.
