HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALEX!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ALEX....
"How old are you???" FOUR?!?!? That can't be right? It is hard to believe it has already been 4 years yet I can't remember our life before you were "our little monkey".
Alex, you are such a joy to have as our daughter. You are a silly, funny, mischievous, challenging, loving, generous, energetic little girl. And, we are so blessed to be your mommy and daddy to watch you grow. We love you so much and can't wait to see what you do over this year of "Four"!

BEACH MONKEY PARTY
Once again...Alex wanted a beach themed party and once again....it rained!
But, the party must go on....

Craft: Monkey Magnet










Brad trying to sneak up on his dad with a water balloon...
but, David was ready and waiting!

Grandma Yoder feeding Riggs so I could keep the party moving

WATER GAMES

The first winning team. Yes, I was a part of it....no mercy!




The dads were great sports! They thought the goal was to fill the bowl with water...
the kids were told to get the dads as wet as possible. Fun times!






Where are you running to Becky???
Grab a water balloon and join in the fun :)


Scott and his girls


Time to eat: Walking Tacos







Cake Time: Alex's Surf Shack

  3. Becky...sorry, but you are too late. Grace was an hour away from GC tonight and called so I would get the cake out of the freezer so she could have it when she got here.

    Amy...making the cake is one of my most favorite things for the girls. They get such a kick out of telling me what they want and then waking up and seeing what actually was made...most of the time not real close to what was requested. But, I try.
