Time to start celebrating Matthew's 5th Birthday! He received birthday packages in the mail and just couldn't wait to open them! 8/26/2011

Cousin Blake made bracelets for both Matthew and Kaitlyn...and wonderful cards! What great penmanship you have, Blake! Happy Belated 10th Birthday to you!

Thank you so much Aunt Debbie and Blake! It almost felt like Christmas today. What a wonderful celebration!

Pa pa and Mema from Malta also sent a package and Grandpa Frank and Grandma Doris from Amsterdam. Matthew felt so special and loved...and Kaitlyn, too! Thank you so much for all your thoughtfulness and generosity!

Having fun picking the sunflower seeds out of the blossom. 8/25/2011
