Elliot's 5!

We celebrated Elliot's birthday twice this year, not on purpose.  Poor Nathanael got a stomach bug the day of Elliot's party, was actually throwing up on the way and we had to call everyone and cancel.  My parents and Aaron and Erin had already driven down for the party so we opened some presents at the house and made the best of it while Nathanael "slept it off."
 Pretty excited about the Darth Vader mask.
Olivia came ready to swim, she missed out, but we all enjoyed her cute bumble bee suit!

Jack was worn out from all the partying. 
 George was loving the wrapping paper.


When we were able to reschedule, we had three other family friends for a swim party.  Unfortunately the fam from Wichita Falls couldn't make it back for the make-up party.


All the boys having a blast.
 Nate with our friend Lynette.  The party was at her house.  We're so thankful for her.  She and her husband have been super special to us during our time in Ft. Worth.

 My mom made the Star Wars cake.  It was definitely a hit.

Olivia's 1st Birthday

My sister went ALL OUT for Olivia's 1st birthday.  It was at 10 in the morning so it was a birthday brunch.  Super yummy food presented fantasticly. It was awesome.  Really.  
Need someone to help you put a party together?? 

"I got ha numba. How do ya like dem apples!!"


These are some highlights...

Blue tongues... I mean lollypops.

 Happy times with cousin Owen.









 Birthday girl with her pancake birthday cake.
 Erin made these fun candies... 
I mean eggs and bacon (white chocolate, yellow M&M, pretzels.)
 Loving on her new baby doll.
And just because we were there and I could take a picture, Mark made this swing for my parents this summer.  I'm so proud.
