Happy Birthday Payter

Pay turned two last week and we celebrated by having a party at the house for her. She is such a fun mess! She loved having a party and gettingn the attention she so loves. We have been blessed by this crazy girl that keeps us laughing every day. There were lots of friends, fun, and food shared by all. B made her an awesome Dora cake...
That Q and I baked.
We also made yummy caramel and candy apples.
The party consisted of jumping on the trampoline and a princess castle jumpy.

And then the kids got in on the action.
Thanks for being a sport Abbey, you look beautiful!
Lots of pizza and watermelon were consumed.
And yummy apples.Stellar juggling skills were exhibited.
Bobbing for apples.
Success.Late night jumping. You could hear them from the street they were having so much fun.
Buddies.
Happy Birthday to you.
And to opening presents. She loved it!Wow!

Ride the Horsey

The horses got to come to Q's school this week and boy were the kids pumped.They started out with getting a chance to feed the horses.Of course Pay couldn't be left out.
Even Braden was pumped about the action.
Just hanging out.
A little excited, can you tell?
Then they got to brush them.
And now gearing up for a ride.
Reason #8,682 why we live Child's World.

64.8 miles

on a bicycle can make you feel like this...We are so proud of B for completing his ride in less than four hours. Way to go Speed Racer.

Trip to the Zoo

We got to go to the zoo yesterday and to say that the girls were excited was an understatement.
Part of it could have been because two of their favoirte people were there.

The elephant was my and Payter's favorite thing.

Too cute!

The griaffes were also pretty cool. Pay swore this was a horse...

Livin the life

My little lion.

The petting zoo was also great fun.

Here piggy, piggy.

Entering my 30s

Is exciting. Yesterday we had a family party and boy the clientele changes as you get older. Check out me and my peeps...
Blowing out the candles. Yes, that's a model of B on my cake :).Loving us some red velvet cake!
I love my life, my family, my friends. What's not to be excited about, I get to spend many, many more birthdays with these people.
