Tim's Birthday



So this is our little family celebration we had for Tim.
Madilyn and Andrew helped with the cake ...

and the candles!

Tim actually had a surprise party the night before but there are no pictures because I wasn't there-he had a guys only, X-Box night.  A friend of ours set up three systems throughout his house and Halo was the game of choice.  Happy Birthday Tim!

Eliza's Blessing Day






This is the dress Grandma Sherrie made.  

Believe it or not, she was even happier once the dress finally came off.
It's fun to get dressed up but I think every girl wants something comfy
 once the main event is over.

Andrew Loves Wall E

Here's a picture of Andrew's birthday cake.  He loved putting the "rocks" on.

Andrew's Birthday Bash!!!

Today I asked Andrew how he got so big and he said, "Because I blew the candles off my birthday cake."  I love how kids' minds work.

Here are some pics of his special day.



The festivities started with everyone decorating bags that they would use to catch all their goodies from the pinata...


and enjoying some time on the swing set.













Dennis and Connie and my mom, Sherrie all flew in for the festivities.












What kid doesn't love a pinata?













Bring on the cake!













Happy Birthday Andrew!

Getting Ready To Party!

Here are my cute little helpers.  This is one chore they both kind of like.  (Hopefully this lasts awhile.)












Madilyn is such a good problem solver.  She should grow up to be an inventor.  She was blowing balloons up for Andrew's party and decided the bike pump would probably work better.  It worked amazingly and Andrew could help too.  What a smarty pants!
