Fun Times

We spent the weekend on the always wonderful Lake Martin. It was my birthday on Saturday, so we began celebrating Friday night. My sweet mother in law had a beautiful and delicious cake to enjoy after dinner:

{thankfully it didn't have 29 candles on it..probably a fire hazard}
I got some great presents {I'm dead serious when I say Dru's mom and sister keep me in style; I feel like I have no clue anymore}

Speaking of style:

Cope was loving Lilla's crocs, which were too small and pink {he seriously had fat poking out of the holes...so funny}

These 2 loved on each other lots {and are looking so much alike these days}



Saturday we had more cousins join us! Sissy, Drew, Bennett, and Mae Mae came up for the afternoon and night. The 4 adults headed into town to host a party for our sweet friends Bret and Leah, and Mrs. Lil, Dr. Donny, Becca and Grover kept all FIVE kiddos! I pray it went as smoothly as they said it did {minus a few bumps in the road} but I know it was a tough and long night. But we are so grateful and appreciative they weathered the storm of keeping an almost 4 year old, a sassy 3 year old, a 20 month old, a 14 month old and a 13 month old so that we could go {makes me feel nuts just typing all of that} and we owe them! Now..as soon as Lauren Deal gets me some pics that are "uploadable" I will be posting pics from the party. Fun times. Great friends. Love those girls so much!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! (I didn't realize you are younger than me if you really just turned 29) The girls are so cute! I LOVE Simms' outfit. I can't wait to get the kiddos together at the lake this summer!
