Birthday parties were held one day early in both cases:  for Ryan on Sunday, January 19th, and for Hope on Febraury 15th.  I am late in getting these out, but I'm sure you will enjoy the pictures.  As you can see, Ryan and Hope, as well as their relatives and friends, had a good time.  Ryan reached the ripe old age of six on January 20th, and Hope turned three on February 16th.
