More and More Birthday Parties!

We are having lots of fun this summer with even more birthday parties.  First we went to Danielle's friend (although Ella considers her one of her besties!).  Kendall's party was a surprise pool party/BBQ.  She had a great time with another friend's little brother.
Next up was Bo's birthday at the water park! Bo's mom is my hair dresser and friend.  They are also family of our buddies so we were able to spend the day with Becky, Scott and the boys.  Ella also had fun with their cousin Charly who is adorable and Ella's age.  When asked what Bo wanted for his birthday - he replied with "lots of tatoos - guitars and skulls".  I found a tatoo sleeve and he went nuts over it.  That is the picture of Bo - proudly wearing the sleeve! :)
We love birthdays! :)

Finally Get to Spend a Birthday with the Gang!

With us always living far away from home...even overseas at times...we haven't been able to celebrate birthdays together with our besties! The last birthday with her besties was her 1st birthday so many years ago.  We were super excited that we were here for Eli's birthday party! We had a great time! 
Mommy is excited that I got a great pic of the gang that I think will be framed for many years to come! They have come a long way together!  Here's to many more fun times with the gang - (left to right) MaryBeth, Ella, Eli, Evan and Sam!
