A Birthday Party!!!

There are two little guys who are precious to us in so many ways.  They both have birthdays coming up, and their Daddy and Mommy decided to have their birthday party together and have everyone come. What a hoot!

There were party hats–

Some wore them and some didn’t.  Okay, so maybe some people are more vain than others!
(One of the vain ones cropped her own picture out of this group.  And yes, she was wearing a party hat!  But there were other “considerations”). 

 

And then there were people there who didn’t even know how to wear party hats!!!  Some people just can’t help it!

Birthday Day Boy Number One planned the menu:

“I want Brats.  And root beer in a bottle.  Iittle tiny cupcakes with sprinkles.  Macaroni and cheese!”
He got it all.  “Next year,” says Mommy, “(Birthday Boy Number Two) gets to plan the menu!

What fun to open the presents.  It was almost like Christmas.  How nice that there are so many people who love these little boys.  How special that their Daddy and Mommy allow us in their lives!

The plumbing inspector and the builder try their hands at putting together a shopping cart.
It was together before we knew it!

What a nice surprise!  Grandma Ruby came with Grandpa Nelson from Virginia.

And Auntie Chris and Rachel were there — as well as about twenty others.  It was quite a party!

 

Little cupcakes with sprinkles on them!  How Exciting!

Birthday Boy Number Two gets some instruction from Daddy —

And then help from Mommy. Such a sweet, sweet family.

Precious, precious days.
What wonderful memories for them, for us. 
I thank God for these little guys and how they have blessed our lives. 

Happy Birthday Carson! 

Happy Birthday Nevin!
