Good Friday Night Fun...
This is the good grub that started off the night!

 There are a few children missing from this picture..
.they were already off playing.


Dessert..thanks to our good neighbor Mike.
Yummy chocolate chip cookies!


The next to pictures are of some sweet baby boys!!!!!



Red faced, deep in thought, ...whew!

Love this pic... two wild looking sisters!

The Kids... (and the dads, but they are kids too)

Making sure we are on the right path...
(sorry for the blurryness, its not this way on my computer)

And finally, the trail....









 We made it back to the beginning... and the kids did some victory jumps.
My settings were not right so these are blurry...sorry.



 





The boys... going to scope things out!


 LOVE this picture...


The whole gang...

Ava and her bug....

Than making sure Asher gets his upside-down time in for the day!




Our friendly little bug that joined us on our picnic table!

What an amazing way to spend a Friday night!

Liam's big day!!!



 July 25, 2012
Liam's actual birthday...

Little Mr woke up to some sunshine!


He loved it!!!



This is one of his favorite...



Look at those sleep eyes...


Love Love Love this boy!!!




We had a surprise visit from daddy for lunch!


That evening Gabe and Ella gave Liam the gifts they picked out for him..
Love Ella's excitement....she was so excited for him to open it.




And Gabe was to excited to let him open the present... tee hee

 We enjoyed our day together with our little ONE year old.
I feel like it was yesterday that we went to the hospital to have him.
I was excited, thinking it would be a breeze bc I was having a scheduled c-section.
Well not so much, they got me all hooked up and i had a reaction to one of the meds, 
I was darn close to passing out until they figured out what was going on.
As soon as they did, I was like a new woman and ready to conquer the delivery!
My sweet little man was here, and so it began.
Here we are one year later, loving life, 
and so excited to see what our youngest holds in store for us.

While we were cleaning up, Ella and Gramma let off the ballons.
Liam had a blast watching them.
 
 

 


 


 



 



My kids are SO blessed to have these two sets of grandparents in 
their lives.  They love them, Spoil them, and most importantly 
teach and show them who their Heavenly Father is!
