Birthday Party!!


We had a great time this past weekend. Grams and Pops came down on Thursday night and then Mimi flew in on Friday afternoon. Weston loved having his grandparents here! We sure missed Pawpaw though :( We started the weekend right with some Mexican food at El Chaparral on Friday night. He sure does love his bean soup and rice!
We had his party on Saturday afternoon at the park. Here is the invitation that my sister created that I sent out to everyone.


It was a gorgeous day to be outside and at the park. We were so thankful for the awesome weather! My sister and Greg and the girls got there just in time before the party. Of course Melody did the cake and did awesome on it. I got 2 really long sub-sandwiches for the food and did chips and dip in sand pails.


We gave out trucks for the boys and sand pails and shovels for the girls. Everyone got to use their party favors in the big sand box at the park.

Weston had so much fun with his cousins, Kiersi & Kayden, this past weekend. He is finally to an age that he can really interact with them. He loved being right with them all weekend! It was a lot of fun to watch those 3. We were sad that Kai and Eli couldn't come to the party :(

He gets all kinds of hugs and kisses from these girls! Those next 2 pictures are my favorite.....the look on his face tells it all!
Here is our best attempt at getting most of the kids lined up to take their picture. I think only the babies didn't make it in there. He has so many fun friends to grow up with. We are so thankful for them and their parents!

And my sweet friend came too! She had been camping the night before and made the drive over. Weston was excited to see his Aunt B.

Lots of fun in the sand box.....even Pops got in there and dug in the sand.
Here's Braden in the tree and Thatcher playing with his truck.
Brynn and Sawyer are getting some sandwich. McCoy is trying to get a drink of his sister's Hi-C.
Lots of eating and playing in the sandbox. Catherine is liking the sand too!
Cute Ellie is showing off her trucks :) Avery is hanging out with mom.
Ava is getting tired and ready for some cake!
Weston was pretty funny to watch with his candles. Everyone sang to him and then he tried to blow them out through his nose! Well it wasn't working but he was starting to get some snot running out his nose. Silly boy. So I told him to blow out his mouth and he did and he got the candles to go out. He was sure proud of himself!


The cake was yummy! I think Weston liked it too. We didn't let him eat quite as much as last year.....although I'm sure he would have loved too.
After the party we came home and let him open his presents. The trucks really distracted him. Once he opened one of those he paid no attention to anything else. We had to take them away for a little while.

Kiersi and Kayden stayed till Monday. They had so much fun jumping and getting thrown on the mattress that was downstairs. They did it over and over and over again.
Weston with the girls.....love these pictures!!!

Great weekend!!! We had a blast at the party. Thanks so much for my sweet family for helping out so much.....Mimi flying all the way down here for 24 hours...meant a lot to us that you were here, Mel and Greg driving all the way down and making the cake, and mom and dad coming and helping out so much with the house and the party. As you can tell in those pictures Caleb is getting quite large. I'm almost 36 weeks and definitely feeling it. I was really glad for the extra help! Thanks family!
