Let the Good Times Roll!



The tent as it was being put up for the last time ever!

Such a pretty baby!

Please ~ no more sunscreen.

It is always so fun to do this. I love seeing everyone and so very glad, that our kids get to hang out with everyone from Pat's past and making sure they remain in our future. The best part about it is to see the kids together, and to discover and enjoy their personalities. To watch them grow and to see it is just so much fun.



Durham; the poor child had on enough sunscreen that he was white. He is so sweet and him and Luke were twins. He was wonderful about sharing his house and toys with all the kids! Handsome and giving. Mommy please give this child a BIG breakfast!!

Bryce; cracked me up several times. It just came naturally to him; his sweet nature. He played but mostly he wanted to make sure the kids had a good time, and were feed breakfast. :-) I just wanted to squeeze and kiss him he is so cute. And I did squeeze and kiss him.

Ryan; is such a handsome sweetie. He played his little heart out, and is so good with his sister. If he stopped I don't remember seeing it. I would have loved to have gotten some sugar from this little ball of energy, but a hi five and he was off!

Anna; just saying her little name makes me smile. What a smile and laugh her and Ryan have. I would do about anything to keep them laughing because I want to hear it all the time. It makes your heart swell up with this wonderful feeling! She is the littlest, prettiest thing.

Callie Grace; can't say enough about this sweet gift from God. She is so helping and loving! Instead of swimming she insisted on helping pack up the car and food. It amazes me how sweet she is, having a 5 year old I know how they act. Me, Me, Me, but not this wonderful child! She is also beautiful. Watch out mom and dad, this one is going to be a heart breaker. She loved painting everyone’s nails!

Caleb; is ALL Boy! He plays hard, sleeps hard, and then plays hard some more. He ran with the older boys, and kept up. Sometimes I think the older boys were trying to keep up with him. He is a doll, and is going to keep his mom and dad busy for a long time.

Brock; you can tell he is the youngest of Tiffany and Jason's boys. He goes with the flow, and nothing much ruffles his feathers. Long as you feed him and take care of his little needs he is happy. Such a handsome boy.

Delanie; she looks like a porcelain doll she is so pretty. And watch out she is a social butterfly who is determined. I am going to let her plan it next year. Or maybe Ella? It is a tie. She plopped right down and played in the sand, and met some new friends along the way.

Blake; does his own thing. His mom and dad does not have to worry about him following the crowd. He is happy as can be being his own wonderful self. You can tell he loves his little sister! It just shows. He is the kind of kid you want to squeeze and love on, but you don't want to bother him to much because he is enjoying doing his own thing.

Ella; Oh how this one cracked me up. She had on her tool belt, and was telling everyone to get together and take a picture with a little pretend phone/camera. I laughed so hard, I don't think I have ever laughed so hard. She was so serious, like she had seen her mommy do that a million times. :-) I think all the kids are a little tired of pictures. Cute little funny girl! You too were excited to have a little nail time in your tool belt.

Alex; is a girl and loves being a girl. She is so cute walking. I loved watching her walk. She needs a shirt like Ashlyn had, I make chunky thighs look good! She was working it. I have always loved chunky babies. I think that is what babies should look like!! She is so cute, and happy!

Luke; played, and played. He wanted to get in the pool so bad I think his head almost exploded from the anticipation of it. It was worth the wait! On the way home in the car he said "You know, I forgot to ask Durham where he got those cars from? I will have to remember to call him and ask." Seriously, stop being so grown little man! He said bye Katherine??? No it is Mrs. Katherine, oh good bye Mrs. Katherine. Love that smile my handsome Luke!

Ashlyn; sometimes I would forget you were there sweet girl. Unless you needed something or got hurt, I did not see you. You tried to keep up with Luke, but it was a little hard the boy is just into everything so fast. You are so sweet and pretty. You made lots of friends, and just wanted to catch 1 Bird??? Just 1! You loved getting your nails painted by Callie Grace.  Don't change my precious baby girl.  You make me want to have 100 more babies.  If I knew they would be like you.
