Miriam turned 1 on November 4. We can't believe she is already 1 year old! Time really flies. Robin's mom & dad & sister, Megan, came to help celebrate Miriam's birthday.
On Friday, we went all went to the Smoky Mountains for the day. Megan & Robin rode the Sky Lift in Gatlinburg that takes you up to the top of a mountain where you can enjoy the beautiful mountaintop view.
Megan tried on a skunk hat at the Sky Lift gift shop.

We attempted to take a picture for our Christmas card. Here are a couple of the potential pictures for the card. You'll just have to wait & see which one we choose. :)
We had Miriam's birthday party Saturday night. Along with Robin's parents & sister, our friends, the Edwards, came over to help celebrate.
Here's Miriam wearing her birthday headband/hat & enjoying some pizza.
Miriam is a bit overwhelmed by her birthday cake.
Mom, I'm not going to waste my time on that crumb of cake when I have that huge cake I could dig into.
We had this cake made by a local lady who does cakes as a side business.
Yummy!

Ready to go to church wearing the dress that Neal's mom got Miriam when she was born. This was the first time she wore this dress. She looked beautiful! (Of course she did not leave the headband on. It came off immediately after the picture was taken.)
All tuckered out from the birthday festivities.
Here's a video of Miriam digging into her little smash cake.
