What have I done for someone today?
Have I done any good in the world today?
You will never regret a kind deed done to someone in need.

First of the birthdays for 2016!

Happy Birthday Xiomara!
She turned 10 today and was totally thrilled! We enjoyed mint chocolate chip ice cream with our pancakes - it was actually yummy.

She opened her card from Grammy and Gaffa, with a couple helpers.

She helped make and decorate her ice cream birthday cake!

Party time. Grandma Nichols wasn't feeling well so Grandpa Nichols had given us the present at Church. They were not able to attend the party so they were missed.







Kemiah gave her presents first.

A picture and a paper R2D2 type unit.

Memere's gift was next -
she brought it when she was out for Naomi.


Beautiful dragonfly necklace.

Grandma and Grandpa Nichols' present was next.

Dolphin Tale 1 and 2






Knitting starter kit - 
I think it might start a craze.
Tamara will teach us all!



Dad got a little crazy with the bags.






She asked for strawberry powder.
She remembers putting it in her cream of wheat
when we lived on the island.
Crazy things kids remember.





That was one successful birthday.

Oh, this is what the cake looked like inside!

Xiomara is fun, friendly, always excited to be included, tough, ready to push her physical limits. We love our little monkey who is growing up!
