happy birthday, autumn!





Photobucket

october 28th marked autumn's 4th birthday!  it was great to gather and celebrate such a sweet little girl and dear friend.  it was a fairy princess party and all were to come in appropriate attire.  our dashing knights were ready, swords in hand!
yes, amanda is always over the top in her gorgeous decorating!
Photobucket
the only way these boys were dressing up was if they got to hold the sword.  done!
Photobucket
"this sword is amazing!"

everybody plays (with kelle hampton)

Photobucket
yesterday the boys had the opportunity to be a part of the everybody plays photo shoot.  we jumped out of the car ready for the camera!  funny how these smiles disappear the minute you want them.  ha!
Photobucket









isaac walked in excited, greeting everyone!  all signs pointed to a successful photo shoot.  too bad those signs soon disappeared.  ryder was slow to warm up, but quickly found himself having fun.  the minute it was isaac's turn he went "bad mood billy", much like the photo above. ha!  not sure what those photos will turn out like, but it will be a real test of how great kelle's skill are;). the whole thing was still a great experience and so fun to meet kelle!  it didn't hurt that each boy was given a $75 gift certificate to use at step 2!  ryder kept saying they gave him a piece of paper(technically he's right!). Photobucket
Photobucket
love that kelle has such a sweet heart for ALL children!  she is just as warm as i imagined and i bet she would be an amazing friend(heck, she liked my green jeans and who doesn't love a friend with similar taste? ;)).  kelle rolled with the punches and was very comfortable in her own skin(i LOVE that in a girl!).  if you aren't familiar with her story, read it.  the girl is legit!
Photobucket my fabulous mom even came with us to help! thanks mom!

Photobucket after bates nut farm we took a quick nap before heading to escondido to meet up with stew's cousin, aunts and uncle. it was fun to introduce the boys to their aunt janet, aunt gwen, cousin kathleen and uncle ray. we haven't seen them in a few years and it was good to catch up. aunt gwen and uncle ray actually live in canada, so to see them is a rare and special treat! they were all very gracious as our boys made themselves at home in their hotel room:) Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
