Carson's Birthday

Carson turned 3!! He had a Veggie Tales theme party at the church.  The kids watched a puppet show and played lots of games.  Leighton had a blast and Logan once again slept through it all! lol

Jason's Birthday

Jason turned 1!! He had a Bama themed party.  I can't believe I did it, but I even wore an "A" on my face.  That just shows how much I love the little guy.  Renate really outdid herself!  All the treats and decor were so amazing!

My 29th

The countdown officially begins! I onky have 1 year left in my 20's!  We went to my favorite restaurant Provino's to eat my free birthday dinner.  Of course Logan slept thru it all and Leighton loved the tiramisu for dessert!

Leighton's 2nd Birthday!!

Since Leighton's actual 2nd birthday weekend fell the same weekend as Megan's wedding, we moved her party to the next weekend, July 31.  We had originally planned to have her party at the Sportsplex's sprinkler park, but a few weeks prior they had a health scare.  It seemed that wasn't a very good/safe choice anymore, so we moved her party to Jubilee Farm w/ a petting zoo, pony rides, and a hay ride around a lake.  The farm had pigs, llamas, sheep, ponies, and puppies.  It was a great decision, because everyone had a blast!  Leighton was beside herself getting to ride the pony that she asked to ride it again and again.  She even rode it all by herself, without us holding onto her.  We were so proud of her for being so brave!  And even though it was the middle of summer, the heat wasn't too bad.  There was a short and light rain shower while we went on the hay ride, but it was just enough to cool everything down.  We couldn't have asked for better weather or a more fun party!  I can't believe our baby is 2!!

Jonathan's 30th Birthday

Jonathan turned the BIG 3-0 on 1/3/11! The family went to Outback to celebrate. And yes, Jonathan's presents were wrapped in black wrapping paper!
