Happy 1st BDAY Lou!

Alyza's bday was March 21st. The day began with pancakes w/ M&M's, bday breakfast of champions



Birthday morning: "What do I do w/ this?"



Charlotte (Lori's youngest)and Alyza eagerly awaiting their cake and candles. They are only 4 days apart, so we did a double party. So fun!





Butterfly cake



Charlotte's lady bug cake



Messy faces! Charlotte's red frosting made for better messy face pictures.



Aftermath bath



All 15 Martineau Cousins. When you have 5 daughters, that = lots of grandkids.



Party at Gpa & Gma Bingham's--Uncle Peter celebrated his 13th bday on Mar. 23 so we had another double party! And close to midnight Peter had to share the birthday w/ niece and nephew twins born to Aunt Katie!



My little helmet head--this kid loves 4 wheelers and motor cycles.



Great Grandpa Bingham and Alyza share a birthday. This year he turned 90, so here you have it: 90 and 1.



Alyza likes Grandpa even when she's not staged. Birthday twins should get along quite well shouldn't they?

New Niece and Nephew, and sewing projects

The darlings have arrived! Katie (Matt's sister) and Andrew's twins were born March 23rd, Bradon Alexander and McKenzie Ruth. Another Ruthie in the family! (Everyone in the Clawson-Bingham clan who gets named after great Grandma Ruth assumes they will be termed Ruthie). They were 3 weeks early and weighed in at Bradon: 6lb 7oz, McKenzie 6 lb 11 oz.

So hence the pictures of some sewing projects for the little babes. So glad they are here and glad for their poor mama!




This last picture is of a primitive stitchery project I did for a lady I V.T. That is such a fun, relaxing hobby. Check out Rita Anderson's website if you are interested in primitive stitchery, she's in my ward and designs and sells patterns. www.cedarberrystitches.com.
