October Birthdays

October is a very busy month for us. It always seems to just zoom past us if we aren't prepared. This year we celebrated the girl's birthdays on the same day... which is always interesting. They are so different in so many ways. Where Daphne's favorite color is pink, Victoria's is blue. Where Daphne loves cats, Victoria loves dogs. 
We had two monumental occasions.
Daphne turned 25!
And Victoria is an official teenager at 13!
We celebrated in the Canyon with grilled hamburgers! It was an awesome day even though it was a little chilly and windy. It had been warm all week until Saturday....figures.
Nana was all bundled up. She had just had another back surgery a week earlier so we 
wanted her to stay warm.
It was fun to be away from home, listening to the river, watching the leaves fall, visiting with each other without the distractions. Our family has grown up and I am so thrilled that they still like to be in on another's company. They don't want to miss out on family time.
That means so much to me.
I baked this awesome gigantic cake per Victoria's request!
Guess who won on the color of the frosting? Not that Daphne would have demanded pink.
A perfect tree for a nap.
