Happy Birthday and then some!!!

This past week, my baby brother turned 21!!!....A birthday celebration turned into an even bigger celebration after Scott down on his knee and asked his girlfriend to marry him.

He got everything he wanted....including Brooke! He proposed to Brooke on his birthday so she woudn't expect it....it was perfect, she really had no idea! She said yes....so we have a wedding in our future!!!!!!:)

My heart aches.........

My sweet next door neighbor, Hannah, died unexpectedly yesterday at the age of 4.
All of you that read my blog, please say a prayer for her family. I have no words for this, I am just heartbroken. She was not too much older than Coleton.

Please, EVERYBODY, Hug your loved ones and hold them tight today!!! Tell them "I Love You"......You just never know when God will call them home!

And.....Greatgrandparents pictures from the party...

They are growing up on me........

Xander turned One last Friday, and Coleton turned Three on Monday........So we had a little birthday party on Saturday afternoon. It was so nice outside, almost too hot...what a change up from years past for the 2nd weekend in October.

We had an Elmo pinata, a bounce house, and a few too many pizzas, it was fantastic.

Thanks to everyone who helped out with getting ready....you all are VERY appreciated! The boys had fun, and we had a little fire and roasted some smores in the evening and got to just hang out and relax after the boys were fast asleep.

Coleton was so excited to play with all his presents, and he was so good all the following 2 days while he was playing with his toys. Nick said, Is new toys all it takes to make them be good? Gosh we will go broke, but it would be worth it...lol

With all seriousness, we have never seen Coleton so quiet and entertained. He just played and played. Now some of the newness has worn off, but he is still very much enjoying his presents!

Welcome little Cowboy.........

A sweet little miracle happened on Saturday.......Wade S was born. I had this little dude in my prayers before he was even conceived and I was beyond excited to meet him. Wades Dad, Matt and Nick were roomates in college, and that is how we all met.

Wade was happy except when I opened the window in order to light his room:)
Matt and Nicole are going to be great parents! They are truely naturals...so relaxed and comfortable with him. What a lucky little dude to have such a loving mom and dad.

I cannot wait to give him a real session very soon!

Ok guys....meet Wade

Happy Birthday continued....

Sydnie and Karen had birthdays this week too.....we had some cake and ice cream tonight again. So, there were birthday parties Friday, Saturday, and Sunday this weekend. It was BUSY, and FUN! Coleton thinks that we party every day now...lol
In a way, I guess everyday should be celebrated, so we will go with it:)

Carter's party was good, he was surrounded by people, and he was all about it. He smiled and clapped....it was so cute! He got a cool John Deere ride-on toy and a BEAUTIFUL quilt just to name a few....

Happy Birthday Baby Boys...

Jesse is not so fond of pop a wheelie on his awesome new four wheeler....but he LOVED it on all four wheels!





Last year, my good friends Kelly and Tiffany had babies in the same week...so naturally, back to back birthday parties. It makes for a fun weekend! Here are a few from Jesse's birthday at Sturgeon park last night. It was perfect weather, and such a relaxing fun time! Carter's Birthday is tonight...so more pics to come later:)
