Sydney's 5th Birthday Party

















Sydney decided she wanted a Tinkerbell Birthday party this year, which is well fitting as she is very sweet and sometimes sassy! The weather was perfect and there were lots of family and friends who attended. The kids went swimming and played in the jumping house. We ate a Mexican theme lunch which was delicious. Fajitas, quesadillas, rice, beans and Mexican caesar salad was served. We topped it off with a Tinkerbell ice cream cake. We sang to Sydney and then to Uncle Ray because it was actually Uncle Ray's birthday the same day! Thanks for sharing your day Uncle Ray!! Sydney opened her many, many gifts from everyone, which she said was her favorite part!! Once we finished with Sydney opening her gifts the kids got a chance to go up at bat and take a swing at the Pinata. Tyler was able to actually knock it down, but not break it open. The kids loved grabbing for their favorite kind of candy! We had a great day!

Kelly's 30th Birthday Party























































































































Darin and my family decided to throw me a huge 30th birthday bash. A bash it was. We had the decorations to set the mood along with the music. There was good company, good food and plenty to drink. The weather was perfect, thank goodness! As you walked up to join the party Darin and Jeffe' had their cars lining the driveway to show. Ray grilled up some pork lion and chilcken with some salad, rice, and fresh fruit for lunch. The dessert was cake, neopolitan, it was amazing as always. It was an incredible event, if I might say myself. Lots of kids running around, which seems to be the theme at parties these day, which is awesome! The kids playing in the pool and on the water slide while the guys played some volleyball and others enjoyed each others company. We had a great time all day with the children and when night fell it was playtime for the adults. We had a great time. A word to the wise...no going down the slide, 3 at a time, that is a BAD idea!! Those slides are dangerous!We enjoyed watching Ray and Jeffe' climbing the waterfall and playing the noodle guitar too! Good times, good memories!!
