On September 9, 2007 at 10:00 PM on the dot our sweet Whitney came into the world. She had the darkest hair and a sweet dimple on her chin. Since day ONE she has been the our little sugar cube--we call her Whitney-Boo. We had a big party on Tuesday night celebrating her first birthday. We also celebrated the 90th birthday of a close family friend, Irislee Prada. Whitney's middle name is also Irislee. The weather was crisp and 70 degrees. The menu was smoked Buckingham's meat sandwiches, fruit kabobs, crudites, peanut noodle salad, baked beans, red velvet cake and lemonade. We had a wonderful time celebrating Whitney and Irislee's lives! Chris, Elyse and I are so thankful for our Whitney. She has a sweet, calm spirit and loves to be at home with her family. She looks like her mama with her daddy's personality!
