My 100th post- it's a party

I just LOVE these pictures. Look how happy everyone looks! We were celebrating Mindy and Val's birthdays and I think/hope everyone was having a good time. I know I was smiling behind the camera.







Even the guys are happy! Do you like how we segregated? Daren was in attendance I just missed getting him in the photo. Happy Birthday Mindy and Val!

NCAA- Sweet Sixteen!

Daren has some ties to the NCAA. I won't expound. My three faithful blog readers already know the story. So, we got to go to a couple of sweet sixteen games. I had so much fun! The first photo is just to show that we were literally right behind the score table.



Do you recognize this man? You should. He was sitting in the section right next to us.


Check out the size of #2's feet! You don't just go to the store and pick up those shoes!


My goal is to have the whole family with us next year. So, save your pennies. We'll be going to Houston.

This was Noelle's birthday party. We are reading Little Bunny Foo Foo. It was the most successful part of the party. 4 year olds have very short attention spans.



Who is that manly man wearing women's sunglasses? Don't faint- it's Daren doing some hard labor. We had to trim the cabinet in order to fit our new/used fridge. We finally got to retire the 25 year old fridge- it was making some seriously frightening noises. Daren was a great help, but as usual my parents and my brothers were life savers to help us out too. We owe you big!


This was the day I realized I no longer have a toddler. I know, she's 4, I should have figured that out a long time ago. It's hard to accept, although 4 is my favorite age so far. She still loves me, but is pretty independent.


Miss Noelle's Birthday


The girls sweet aunt Kara made these cute containers for them.


Don't ask what this cake is suppose to be!





Who needs a fork!


My favorite part of the evening: Kids break all barriers










Libby gave Ellie a broom for her birthday. It's just her size!



AHHH! We went to Ellie's favorite restaurant, Sizzler, for her birthday.
