Grandma's Birthday Party

We celebrated Grandma's birthday on Sunday the 19th

because the kids went to Worlds of Fun with

Demain Jesse and Carli on the 18th. I made spaghetti and

meat balls and here are the rest of the festivities...

Happy Birhtday to Aunt Lolly too! We Love You!

Emma (my niece) carefully placing the ABC

candles on Grandma's cupcakes. She placed the candles deep enough

so that they wouldn't fall out.

(notice the pink a candle)

We all sang Happy Birthday and Emma had

to "blow Grandma's cakes for her"
Just to make sure that it was done

correctly she had us relight the candles and
sing again so she could blow the cakes again.

What a good girl!

We always carve pumpkins on Grandma's

birthday. The boys used stencils

and Sara drew her own.

Notice Sadie sitting right there she was

very helpful! We had to put her on her leash

so she wouldn't eat pumpkin guts.

Emma giving Eric some much needed instruction.
She even entertained us with some of her scariest faces.

I'm sure that you noticed that there are

no pics of Grandma, she is like me

she doesn't like pictures.

We got some exciting news from Jeff & Michelle

Emma's baby brother will be here on January 15th.

We will be getting 3 new

babies in the family about the same time.

Jeff & Michelle's, Matt & Beth's and

Melisa & Jeff's we can't wait to meet all of them!
