Happy Birthday, Adam!

Our little guy turned six this year. He's the last of our birthdays for the year, so we're finally done with birthday cake. :)  We were in Cowley for his birthday since it was the day after Thanksgiving. We opened presents in the morning. Here's our big man relaxing, waiting for it to be time to open.





He got some fun stuff, like a watch, toy gun, and candy. He requested marshmallow creme, so here he is enjoying some spoils.


Later that day we ate another Thanksgiving dinner with the Asays.  A great time was had by all, as always. After dinner we sang Happy Birthday and had rainbow cupcakes, which Adam had picked out all on his own from pinterest.




Here's a good view of Jenna's new haircut. So pretty!



Happy Birthday, big man!!! We love you!!

Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year Joel took some days off of work, so we headed North for the holiday. We got to Cowley on Tuesday. I already have forgotten what we did Wednesday, but I do remember that Joel helped Daniel do tile in his house. Oh yes, and I did some shopping and getting ready for Thanksgiving the next day. 

On the day itself we ate dinner with all the Robertsons at Joel's Aunt Karen's house, which is Brenda's house in Lovell. It was fun being back in that house. Lots of great memories there.

Dinner was delicious, of course, and it was great seeing everyone. Audrey had a fun time walking around and stealing any food she could find.


 Here's Jenna with her still long hair. She got it cut the next day.

I'm not sure what's happening with Erin's face here.

That evening we went to Marianne's for pie and games. It was a lot of fun, but I didn't get any pictures! We were lucky enough to have another Thanksgiving dinner on Friday with the Asay's. That also happened to be Adam's birthday, so pictures from that will be with the next post.

Joel is THIRTY!

Joel turned 30 this year! Pretty exciting, right?! His birthday was on a Sunday, and it was a pretty normal Sunday. But we had some delicious dinner, and cherry cheesecake for desert, since Joel picks that for his birthday every year. :) This year I also made some individual cheesecakes, for those who wanted something other than cherry. 

Unfortunately, most of the pictures I took ended up too dark or too blurry, so this is the best one I got of the birthday boy on his big day. Happy 30th, sweety!!
