Family Day 2005
I love looking at and comparing these pictures every year. She is growing up way too fast!!
I didn't take her to school today so we could go to the community center and make Thank*sgiving crafts. She made a turkey out of her little feet and hand prints and it is so cute.
She also made a little tree and it said "Annslee is thankful for...." and she wrote on each leaf what she is thankful for. You will have to click and enlarge to read them ... in case you can't read her handwriting they read in the order she said them~ God, Coby, Love, Milk, Tree and Moon~ oh, my sweet girl...guess Mommy and Daddy are just a given and don't need a leaf LOL
When Daddy came home he brought flowers for her
Then it was time to open a gift bought for her when we were in China. She got a mirror with a jade handle.
Here is a pic of her jumping off the tent in the play area at the mall into daddy's arms~ I think she thought it was fun!
We went to dinner with friends who we only knew through email until tonight. We went to a Vietnamese restaurant that we wanted to try. When we told Annslee where we were going she said "Mine famee day, go eat China food" LOL Annslee had a great time with Sofia (who is 4.5 and from China) and Ava (who is 2 and from Vietnam) They are such beautiful girls! On the way home Annslee announced "Sofia mine best friend" When daddy asked what about Mia or Amelia, she said "all best friends"
Annslee, you are the most precious gift and we are so blessed and honored to call you daughter. I hope we can be the parents you deserve.

Happy Family Day Anslee!!!
I love your crafts you made & I see baby brother Coby is at the top of the Thankful Tree! Hope you've had a great day!!
*sniff* Happy 3rd Family Day! I can't help but get a little teary anytime I read about someone's family day or their family day anniversary. It just brings up such memories of ours. Annslee practically looks grown up now when compared to three years ago! You guys are indeed blessed to have such a loving and funny child. She's adorable, and I'm sure she's going to be a wonderful big sister to little Coby.
What a beautiful post! Congratulations on your 3rd Family Day! It's wonderful to see what a treasure Annslee is to you. :)
Awwwww, Happy Family Day to your beautiful girl. What a great post.
Happy Family Day! And what a difference a couple of years makes.
(And can you believe that the word verification on this comment was "dorks?" Is blogspot trying to tell me something. I refuse to believe I am a dork.)
Looks like you had a great day! Love the craft ideas (we made the turkey this year, but I haven't seen that tree-too cute what she was thankful for)! Did you like Vietnamese food? The time sure if flying huh?
Happy Family Day, Annslee! What a great way to spend the day - family, friends and giving thanks! Cute craft projects, too.
You are such a beautiful family...I adore you all.
Still praying that Coby is with you soon!
Love the pics of Annslee AS ALWAYS she is so darling.

Happy family day anniversary! How can it be three years already? Annslee continues to grow more and more beautiful.
(While you were receiving Miss A in China three years ago, we were finishing up the last of our packing and getting ready to go. Sometimes I think that trip seems like an amazing dream.)
Love her little turkey!
Happy Family Day, Annslee! (yesterday) I remember so well those posts when you were in China while we were waiting for our turn to go! Such a sweet happy girl you have. Hugs, Sheryl
you guys are so beautiful. One of God's masterpieces. Your beautiful family.
Love the mirror! We are coming up on three years also.

I love seeing the year by year series! That is so cool! Wow!..what a change from 2005 to 2008! Poor dear, she looked pretty devastated on the first family day. So good to see how happy her little face has been in the years since!
The Thanksgiving crafts are really cute!
Awww....look at her sad little crying face on Gotcha Day:( I don't think I have ever seen her that way!
Happy Family Day Miss Priss! We love you at the Byrd's Nest!
Happy Forever Family Day sweet girl! You are a blessing to all that know you!

Happy Family Day! I know... I can't believe it's been 3 years.
