happy birthday, sweet girl!
I love you, my little SJO

walking into Cracker Barrel...

seeing everyone for the first time!

she loved her balloons and table decorations

on to the next fun-stop of the day... downtown Saint Joe!

'take my picture, Mom!'
we took a rest and took in the sights on the bluff
on to the Carousel with MeMa Laurie and Papa Al

waiting in line for the Carousel--it's MeMa Laurie's first time!

What a extraordinarily fun day we had! Birthday breakfast has become a treasured tradition--a day that I so look forward to in celebrating my sweet girl each year.
While the logistics of this year were undeniably different--we were in a restaurant, not our home, we still had a wonderful time and made sweet memories. I feel overwhelmed with gratitude for the family that we're blessed with--and the daughter that God has entrusted Griffin and I with.
wow.
