Birthday pictures (Family Party)

Because summer is always crazy busy for everyone and with the kids having a birthday in June, July, and August, we decided to combine all three this year. The boys have always been combined, especially the family party. So we celebrated their birthday, July 27th when the temperature was a cool 95 degrees. Blah!!! Gotta love heat and humidity. It was not a hard sell to have the party indoors. We had a great afternoon. The boys mainly played in the basement with their cousins and Chrissi ruled the upstairs. We had the kids favorite........Meatballs and Spaghetti (my family always had said that backwards.......the spaghetti is completely secondary to the homemade meatballs), garlic cheese bread, and pasta house salad! Yummy!!!! What a great day!!!!


It's my party and I want to be HELD!!!!







Finally!!!! Bama is giving me the attention I deserve.

"A table full of snacks just for me!!!" Whoops, the birthday girl got caught!







"How did you know that I LOVE puppies?" I don't know, Chrissi, maybe it is because you call every animal a puppy!!!







"Can I please open my present now?"







What an awesome big brother, always helping out his little brother or sister.
