Celebrate

Taylor turned 21!  Crazy how fast the past year has gone-I swear we were just celebrating her birthday!  She is a beautiful sister, woman, and friend, and we are so grateful for her in our life.  Our boys adore her and I'm not sure how I'd survive parenthood without her!  She helps me a lot.  I'll just leave it at that.

To celebrate first, we went to Pete's place for the first BSU game on the 3rd.  It was a great time with yummy food, lots of kids running around {thanks to Bailey for entertaining my boys all night} and good conversing.  There were even dippin dots flown in again for the occasion-like last year.  Thanks Grandpa Alan!  Beckham was sticking his hand right in and loving them.  I took the boys home early to get them in bed and didn't stay for BSU's win, but I'm glad they won and more glad Taylor was born.  Love you sister girl!

The second celebration took place on Sunday evening.  I took Bex home for a nap after church and Zac took Grayson to G&G Cleaver's to hang out & eat lunch.  At 4:45, I went and took pictures for Julie's extended family.  They were cute & fun to spend an hour with.  After I got done, I picked up my three boys & we headed to Pete's place to have cake & ice cream with Taylor and to watch her open her gifts.  Talon got her an adorable ring that all the girls in the family are now coveting. (:  Zac-through our Cricket stores-sponsored a local soccer team and they made him a shirt.  Super nice...even if they spelled his last name wrong!  Beckham is wearing the same jammies both days, but the first day they were Grayson's set and the second day they are his.  Whoops!

When we got home & got the boys in bed, Zac and I watched a documentary called Freakonomics, based on the book by the same name.  Totally interesting.  It was another fun day spent with the people we love.
