Round 2/Eden's Birthday

Maia, Alli Kate, Adam, Josiah, & Jude waiting for the party to begin!

Here is what Krimson was doing during the party...no nap today, can you tell?

Another cake?

Oh yeah, it's good!
The next pictures are the older kids getting to pretend they are 1 again. Adam had been talking about "splatting" his face in a cake again and I thought why not a finally? This is the last one year old party our family will have, so why not go out with a bang...or splat? The Joneshills were here and got to enjoy the cake eating as well. I think it went over pretty good. Eden was probably the cleanest. She got more into it on her birthday.

Fun with the Joneshills

We were so excited to have the Joneshills come down for a visit! We kept them busy with swimming, crawfish, stilts(sp), birthday parties, and putt-putt! The kids always have fun when cousins are around and this was no exception!

Round 1/ Eden's Birthday

E started off the morning with a gift from Krimson. She had fun playing with it all day!

Lunch at McAlisters!

Choo-Choo!



Yummm...a little sample of what she'll get Friday. I think she'll enjoy picking up where she left off!

Eden with her baby from Grandma Vicki! She loved it!

Eden with her basketball hoop that the boys picked out for her!

Eden multi-tasking, shooting hoops and taking care of her baby. That-a-girl!

Listening to Grandma & Big Daddy sing happy birthday on the phone!

Happy First Birthday Eden!

I can't believe my baby is 1! Excitement has filled the house since early this morning. The 3 older kids are so excited to celebrate (aka "splat" their faces in a cake) and open Eden's presents. We are going to celebrate small tonight and save the big sha-bang for Friday when the Joneshills get here! Happy Birthday Eden Beth! You are getting so big and bring smiles to our faces. You have captures our families hearts and can't imagine life without you. We love You sweet girl!

Beach Trip '09 Was a Success!

The weather channel called for rain all week, but God had a better idea! Blue skies all but about 10 minutes all week! Thank you Lord for a wonderful family trip, again! This was our 5th year to make it as a family, and with our wonderful friends the Watsons! The kids all play so well together and every year it's getting easier to just let them go play and the adults get to visit. Here are just a few shots of a slammed packed week of fun!
