birthday weekend extravaganza!!

Ok... slight exaggeration there... nothing too extravagant... but sweet just the same. I love having my family near - and thats what my birthday entailed!

Sunday morning started out with breakfast with the inlaws... my Mom-in-law, Dad-in-law, and Sis-in-law Autumn!  It was sooo nice... we had a big breakfast nook/room to ourselves and we were able to linger and chat. No pictures... ): but good memories!!

After church Sunday afternoon, my parents & Jen made the drive down to spend the afternoon with us. I was so bummed when the day was over and I thought I had only taken ONE pic (last pic of my parents w/ the grand babies) but I was PLEASANTLY surprised when I uploaded my camera, to realize that I had taken a bunch at the park before my parents arrived.  YEAH ME!!!

Brock & his FAVORITE person, Daddy:

 Natalee begged for a shot of her on the rocky thingy:

 Auntie Jen snuggling Koa Bears. Snuggle bug! I need a snuggly baby!!


This last pic, my parents literally grabbed and the GRANDS, I hollered to get their attention, and snapped ONE picture! and it turned out this good... I know, AMAZING.

Christmas card Mom & Dad????

OH OH OH I just love the family picture. It is PERFECT. I just love the one of Koa snuggling on Auntie Jen's lap. It is so so sweet. Jen must just love being with the children.

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
