Violet: Year One

cade's talented birthday celebration

cade turned 27 on the 1st of this month. we celebrated by hosting a birthday talent show extravaganza. i didn't want to deny anyone the priviledge of showing off their talents on this special occasion, so when 60 people showed up ready to perform, the show got quite interesting.

turns out, there is quite a lot of talent out there....




thanks for sharing your talents.... and happy birthday to the greatest husband around. cade.

and for those of you who missed this year's version of "a family affair: the lock of hair"... fear not. here it is.



while the performance is great, my favorite part is the little singing violet in the background. she loved all the talents and couldn't help but showcase hers as well.
