Wildhorse Boot Scootin'

"It's a, Birth-day Tra-dition." (Sing along with me. You know, like Hank Jr., 'Family Tradition'? Oh c'mon, yes you do.) It was Chrissy's 23rd birthday, so Jimmy came in town and we all went to Wildhorse Saloon again for some bbq, dancing and birthday fun.

My Sister and her man. They are so fun together and always call each other "Baby, Honey, Sweetheart." Their other favorite things to do together are dancing, skiing/snowboarding, talking on the phone and shopping at garage sales. They're soul mates.

The whole fun and funky party crew.

The cheering section.

Just in case you weren't sure if we had a good time...

"Winners!" Well, ok, I guess 'Groovin' Grandma', Linda, tehnically won over the crowd in the end (with her bootin' and scootin' and wild grey hair flippin' all around), but to us, Chrissy and Jimmy were the real champions.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOOSH!

Birthday Bonanza

Autumn is a busy time for birthdays in our family. Here is a little re-cap of the most recent ones we've shared.
First there is Omi's birthday... (Here she is with her three favorite gifts.)

... followed by my birthday, the very next day. My Daddy always give me flowers. Thanks Dad! And I'm 33 now, if you're wondering. I'm happy about my age because I believe Dad's favorite saying.

Then our sweet baby Lukie had his special 1st birthday. Who doesn't like to start their day off right with a birthday sugar rush cinnamon roll?

If only everyone were so lucky to have a brother and sister who loves them this much...

...or a to have a birthday hat that is this cool!

And then our darling oldest 'baby' turned FIVE! Wow.

We celebrated at a pottery painting party with a cupcake theme.

Daddy and Jonah needed a break from all of the 'girl stuff' and decided to go rockin' instead.

Happy 51st birthday Maya and Luke... or, maybe, 5th and 1st!

Mr. Mac and Mini-Mac.

"Yes, I'm one and NO, I still do not like this hat!"

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Chris turned 33 this week. Here are pictures from the party at Gigi's house.

I can't tell you how exciting it was for me to get a picture with everyone (Jonah) actually looking at the camera.
Baby Luke with Cousin Isaac.


In case you are wondering what we got for Daddy, I will remind you of his Father's Day, Birthday, Christmas, Valentine's present... The AMG. Other than that, there are some new clothes and PS3 Guitar Hero.

'Cause You Just Can't Have Enough Birthday

Here is the often requested, much anticipated pirate cake for my big three year old boy.

He was thrilled with it, especially after he discovered the Captain.And he waited oh so patiently to dive into those gifts.

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...

On Buddy's Birthday we took him and his big sis (per his request) to the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. (And yes, we did get to see Nemo and Dory.)Here he is chillin' on the the way there.

They're ready for the Imax movie "Sea Monsters" (Buddy's choice.)

Those pengiuns looked so huggable!

We all had a great time and most of all enjoyed sharing Buddy's special day with him. (Oh my goodness, my boy is three already! Did I mention how fast time is flying?)

Happy Birthday My Beautiful Boy!

How can three years go by in just the blink of an eye? It's amazing how quickly time seems to be flying lately. I am truly so happy for my baby boy that he is growing, playing, thriving and learning. But I'll admit to you, I was sad on his birthday. I nearly cried when he woke up the day of his birthday and I said "Happy Birthday my big THREE year old boy!"
