Larkin's Birthday Party


Larkin's Baseball Birthday Cake. He loves baseball. This year his team is the Dodgers!

Our first family photo with a big 6 year old!
A very unique picture of Brandon (who hates to have his picture taken).
Last minute instructions from Mom on our plans for the party...after we blow out the candles, we can open presents, then have cake, the bust open the pinata, then we can go play basketball/climb the rock wall/and play soccer in the gym! Got it!

The pinata that we almost never broke open....maybe Brandon and I filled it TOO full!

The Tater Tot!

The coveted "DNS" (that is the word that I do not make him change MiMi -- I love it) game. He has always called his Nintendo DS, his "DNS" and it stuck and I think it is cute...so I do not correct him on that one...it doesn't hurt anyone and it is "our" word. Anyway, thank you Heather and MiMi for the awesome Wolverine DNS game...it is exactly what he wanted!

The Ipod Nano....with his favorite songs on it.
Luke showed him how it worked! What a great friend!

Opening gifts.....Thanks so much everyone!

Papaw and his Girls.....the Brookster.....

and little CR.....one year old now....

Look John, there's the Pinata, way up there, we have to try to bust it open so we can get the candy out!

Watch out now.....she always has a plan....

Swing, batter, batter, swing.......
My friend Joy says people pay good money for hair that color!

Somebody knocked a hole in it.....


Now there's some candy hitting the floor....

The boys shootin' some hoops.......

Sometimes I feel like I am climbing the walls too!
My precious friend, Heather, taking Clara for a walk. I don't know how I would have done it without all her help. Heather, you are awesome!

About Me

My photo
I hope you enjoy our blog. I try to keep it updated, but we are growing and growing up so fast that it is hard to keep up with. AND, I don't want to miss a moment. I went back to college at 30, with 2 children in tow... I graduated with my Pharm.D. in 1999. I married the best husband and father in the world and my best friend in 1999. I became a Mother again in 2003 to the most wonderful little boy. I also became a grandmother 10 weeks before my son was born to twins! Yes, Grandma had a baby! Thank God for this life and all of our wonderful family!
