Leah Noel just had her 3rd birthday party for some little reindeer friends. While her birthday is on December 22nd, pulling the party back a couple of weeks helps us to focus on her! We had a pink castle moonwalk, reindeer cupcakes & the Rudolph movie. It was a lovely day!
Another good tip to separate December birthdays from the holidays is to make sure you wrap all birthday presents in something other than Christmas wrapping!!! and never pull a gift from under the tree that will "count" as a birthday gift!
We also have a special birthday banner for Leah, that hangs in our kitchen during birthday week- sure it's up among the Christmas decorations but we reserve the tradition for her big day!
and here comes another Christmas baby! any day now (or Friday 19th)Of course the Biggest Birthday of all is for Baby Jesus!
What a celebration that will be . . . I pray that He is never overlooked amidst all of the Christmas hoopla.
. . .and then there's Michael's big day on December 28th. This year he'll be 33 and who knows how we'll celebrate. It would be easy to justify a simple "Happy Birthday Babe" . After all, we're almost worn out from a month's worth of celebrating. But He deserves more than that so we'll come up with something special. And I'm never to pooped to party!
Happy Birthday to Leah, Jesus, Baby Stargel, & Michael!

hee. hee. Just KIDDING! :)

Happy birthday Leah!!!
You are doing a great job with Leah! My birthday is ON CHRISTMAS DAY!! That is why I am also a "Noel" middle name. Growing up it was tough....never could have friends over for parties, and yes...the Christmas wrapped presents for my birthday were not "right"....obviously now, I love that I share my birthday with the birth of Jesus..but as a child, you just don't get it.
GOod job for you :)
Happy early Birthday Leah:)
You guys have a great Christmas!!
Happy Birthday, indeed! I love the photo of Michael with the kids. It's so happy and sweet. They are a perfect combo of both of you lookers!!
FUN, FUN!!!!
What a fun birthday party. You always do a great job giving her a birthday seperate from Christmas, I am sure it must be tough. Sorry we missed you this year, hope to see you soon.
