NOW:
Yesterday was Viv's 1st birthday! It is amazing how fast a year flies and even more amazing how wonderful one little person can make your life! Viv has been such an amazing gift and we are amazed every day at how much spunk and personality this little girl has bottled up in that little body.
We had a big birthday party luau for her and her friend Will on Saturday. It was a blast! Unfortunately, our camera broke a few days ago, so we were unable to take any photos of our own. However, we have some awesome friends who took some shots, so once I get those pics I'll post them.

Happy Birthday Viv!
Happy B day Vivian, we're so sad to miss the party. You're one adorable one year old.
Happy Birthday Vivi! I seriously can't believe that she is a year old already and I haven't ever even met her! I definitely will need to see that girl this summer if you are in Utah!
Happy Birthday Viv!!! You are quite the cutie. I haven't seen you forever! Hopefully we'll catch up over the 4th of July. Good job with the party, Natalee! We had great intentions of throwing Krish a big bash, but it didn't happen : (
P.S. - this really is from Amber. I am logged in under Kamal for some reason. ; )
Happy Birthday!~~ It's amazing that she is one... I love her big blue eyes. So Cute!
Fun times! Bryson just had his last day of kindergarten and it so reminded me how having little ones sometimes are long days but the years fly so fast! (Alyssa is now 14 months and still no teeth - go vivi with 6!)
My how she has grown! She is soooo beautiful, I just love your little family.
Happy Birthday Vivi! Where does the time go... seems like yesterday that you were born. You have great parents and a wonderful heritage. Hope to see you soon!
Love, Aunt Karen and Uncle Steve
