Brinley's 9th Birthday!

Brinley turned 9 and got the biggest surprise ever for her Birthday! Actually, Quincy and Brinley both got a big surprise! We had a moment of weakness and somehow decided to build a rabbit hutch and give Quincy and Brinley baby bunnies for their Birthday's!! They were so so surprised and excited. Brinley got her small surprises in the morning before we went to church. After church we had them both close their eyes and Kylee and Emilee brought in the 2 bunnies and sat them in their laps. They opened their eyes and couldn't believe it! We then led them to the garage to show them the hutch that Chris and I built. It is awesome if I do say so myself! It of course turned out gigantic, because we don't make anything small, and took us forever to make! We finished it..minus the shingles on the roof at 1:00am the night before. Later that night everyone came for her party. Her favorite part of party was her dessert of choice...dirt cups!

We are so glad Brinley is a part of our family. She is so fun, smart, super creative, always on the move, funny and a wonderful little sister! 

Happy Birthday Brinley!

We love you!!

Em's Sweathearts Dance!

Emilee's friends talked her into asking a date to Sweathearts. There were 4 couples and I think they had a great time together. We got to host the dinner at our house. The greatest thing about our new addition is that we now have room to have people over. It's great! This was such a cute group of kids. Em's 4 best friends and their cute dates! Kylee and I decorated with a Valentines theme and served them a turkey steak dinner...of course! 

Good High School Memories for Em!

Kade's 15th Birthday!

Kade's Birthday fell on a Sunday this year so we got to party on his actual Birthday. We had dinner with the family. He wanted money this year so there weren't any exciting presents to open. 

Kade is a great kid. He loves to ride the 4-wheeler with his friends, play his computer game, be on his phone, still loves to tease his sisters, eat pizza and Arby's, eat any kind of sour gummy candy, and he still loves to make money and decide what he's going to spend it on!

Happy Birthday Kade!

We love you!

Guatemalan ties!

Chris and Kade wearing these awesome ties that Betty made for them. That was so nice of her. Notice the Guatemalan belt Kade is also wearing. Great souvenirs from our trip!
