HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

We celebrated Father's Day and Ladi's birthday today (since the brothers and grandparents were in Disney on her birth date)! The boys came home last night and we all were so glad to see them. Ladi was very excited and they missed her while they were gone. At dinner last night we were able to hear all about their trip- they were so excited that at times all three were talking at once! Blake is going to update you all on the trip later! So we had lunch at our house today with my parents, my brother and his family and my aunt and uncle that went to Disney. We had a birthday cake for Ladi and we sang to her and Steven helped her blow out her candles. After we ate cake the boys were "dying" for her to open the gifts they had purchased for her in Disney (they picked them out all by themselves and paid for them with their own money)! She put each gift on as soon as she opened it- a necklace from Bryson, a bracelet from Sadie, a princess headband from Brady, and a princess watch from Phe and Pops! She also loved the Minnie Mouse princess from Uncle Ken and Aunt Lucy and a Tinker Bell from Phe and Pops! Ladi was a bit over whelmed with being showered with so many gifts! One of the gifts was a Cinderella play set that Blake gave her and she immediately wanted to play with it but there were still gifts to open and brothers anxious for her to continue! But the moment I will never forget from today was when everyone had finished and we were sitting in the living room talking; Ladi came to me and hugged me tight and whispered in my ear "spahseeba" which is thank you in Russian! I couldn't believe it! She was so sweet and discreet with her act of affection but she was truly grateful for her special day!
