ReplyDeleteI was thinking you should make your way down to the big big city and come to Mudd Lake for the get together at Mckmama is putting together.. Would be great to meet you :)
ReplyDeleteHappy bday Grayson!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect celebration!
Hey, nice butt, mama!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is so great!! We were having such a hard time w/ Seth's birthday party list but God has undertaken and its over a long weekend in our country so many of the people will be away and only the friends he plays with are able to make it!!
ReplyDeletePeople can't understand why we don't do big parties. This year we're having fun things the kids like eating other than sweets...i.e. pizza, grated cheese, cold meats, popcorn for foods. And we're doing a braai (BBQ) for the adults. The kids will just have a sandpit and a pool to play in! No jumping castles, entertainment etc. Just good old playing together in the sun!! with the birthday cake...the high light of Seth's day!! All he wants for his birthday is a B-I-G (toy) shark.
Looks like fun. Can't wait to see the girls birthday post! How are you guys doing? I've been thinking and praying...I don't need any details but I wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you and lifting your family up in prayer.
ReplyDeleteI just love reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteThe kids are so cute and the cake looks yummy!
awesome Brittany, I love it too that when just our family is together it's like a crazy {fun} circus.... and it's only going to get bigger & better as the twins start to play......
ReplyDeletethe great things about having lots of children xx
Looks like so much fun! :)
ReplyDeleteOnly Shelly can say that, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteLove the water fun!
9 does seem old --- but when they're in the double digits next year, wow! Even more reflecting!
