Jaylin is ONE!

Little Jaylin is getting very big. She knows how to walk and can say some words ... "go" "mama" "da!" .... she's also very talented at getting what she needs - not that it's hard when you have 12 aunts and uncles, two parents, four grandparents and seven great grandparents and great great grandma all at your disposal!

Jaqui's sisters threw a wonderful first birthday party for little Jaylin (this was the BIG birthday party - Jaylin also had one in South Carolina with her friends - and their parents and one at Chuck E Cheese. Here are some pictures of Jaylin on her big day(s).

The cake the Ward-Anderson family (and several of the kids friends) made for Jaylin. The first cake is Peru, the second is Dora (the theme of the party was Dora the explorer) skiing in Utah, the next cake is Maryland and the Chesapeake where Dora is sunning on the beach and the last cake is the Carolina's all dressed up in camouflage like daddy wears to work. Dora has on her red, white and blue.


Jaylin says, "please drive me in my new car uncle Clay ..." they drive around the yard then back to grammy Deb for another bite of fish. Life is good when you are Jaylin.



Nate and Jaylin catchin' some rays.
