Birfaday Partay

This year, instead of the kids getting a bunch of toys, Brandon and I had the idea to get everyone to chip in and buy/build a playset for the back yard.  I was thinking this was going to be an ongoing thing that we would add to over the next year or so.  Nope.  The grandparents blew it out of the park.  The kids have a ginormous set that will be enjoyed for years...not to mention memories of a sweet day with all their family. We partied from lunch till after dark.  Such a fun day!

Cade sliding before the slide was even attached...he was psyched.

Big Daddy...big feet

Mad props to my FIL who constructed the whole tower prior to that day.  

Are you ready?  Ha...Just for you Tyler.

Yeah...this party was def mid October.  I'm such a slacker

These are a few pics of the kiddos enjoying their playset since the party

Luke loves the sand.  Especially when it's being piled onto his back.

Birthday breakfast on his actual birthday.  Waffles...yumm : )
