I've been posting birthday pics of my sister all week, but I thought it would be fun to put them all in one place today. Her actual birthday is tomorrow, so we'll be celebrating all weekend!

One! |
We think this photo of Jeanette eating a flower was taken on her first birthday. We haven't found the cake pictures yet (sorry, younger sister).
|
Two! |
She loved her babies, even back then. I think this was the famous Susie who eventually got all of her hair literally loved off of her head.
|
Three! |
Such a little cutie with her cupcakes and sweet little dress! Make a wish!
|
Four! | |
We had just returned from a family trip to Disney World where she got a new dress with a matching purse. Granddaddy had asked her what kind of cake she wanted and got her what she requested: cake with pink icing and a ballerina on top! She also got another doll and some money!
|
Five! |
Jeanette's birthday usually falls around Labor Day weekend, so we were often in Maryland visiting our Maw-Maw and Granddaddy. I love having familiar things in the background that we remember from our childhood.
|
Seventeen! |
We skip ahead to when Jeanette turned 17 (driving age in NJ). I was away at college, but Mom, Dad and Uncle Randel helped celebrate (and added fingers to show her age). The cake in this picture was a strawberry cake, which has been Jeanette's favorite and most-requested birthday cake for many years!
Love you, Sis!
