Clara Marie Turns ONE!

It was Clara's big first birthday on March 25. We went to the new Su Hong in Palo Alto for dinner with Clara, Mark, Sarah, Sarah's brother Jacob, Oma, Opa and the four of us to celebrate Clara's big day. The girls played at our house for awhile before we caravaned down to dinner.

Little puff addicts

Francie and Maisie gave Clara a BlaBla doll- she was so excited :)

The girls had to wear their birthday best

Heff and Maisie (who LOVES her Daddy lately and squeals/jumps out of my arms when she sees him)

Jacob and Sarah (who have both lived in CHINA) asked for the chinese menu and could actually read/order from it! We got some really interesting authentic dishes

Some of the dishes - I didn't ask too many questions- just ate!

Delish Dumplings

The food was really good- much different than the usual stuff I grew up ordering at Su Hongs Menlo Park! and then we brought out the cake for all-smiles Clara Marie

Make a Wish

Of course Mark would feed Clara her rainbow cake with chopsticks :)

Not so sure about this cake stuff

but somebody is willing to help eat the cake!

Hot Tea Daddy and Funny Face Maisie

Francie loves her Oma and Opa

and Oma loves her Bay Area grandkids!

special whipped cream and banana "cake" to celebrate too!

"Hey... I thought I wasn't supposed to have dairy?"

Francie will eat this one too!!

Who called that book would end up in the whipped cream? ;)

Still got the attitude

Happy Birthday ClaraMarie!
