Parties

It seems like everyone we know has a birthday in August.  Benjamin, all three Wades, and of course Nicholas and Chris!

Party #1 - Lauren Turns 4!!! - Celebrated at FUMC

 Happy Birthday Lauren!

 Paul - whatcha doing?

 Party #2 - Ben turns 7!!! - Celebrated at Pin Station

 Someone slid and fell on the slick lane.

 What Mom, can't you see I'm busy?

 Fine, now leave me alone!

 Winking!

Party #3 - The Wade's - Paul, Lisa, & Lauren - Celebrated at Dos Amigos with the Donley's

Party # 5 - (Yes I'm skipping #4 and giving Nick his own post) Chris's Birthday at Chick Fil A & home

Chris even got a dinosaur cake!

Nick Turns 6 Years Old!!!

To celebrate Nick turning 6, Big Mama took the boys to see The Smurfs then met us for dinner at Jason's Deli.  As always, my brother Dan helped make the night more exciting than it needed to be.  First there was cake smashing, then there was crying.  All in all though, it was a great time!

 Evil Uncle Dan Plotting...

 SMASH!

 More smashing!

 Crying - the icing burned his eyes

Smiling, but look at the rash the icing left!

Tweetsie with Big Mama

Big Mama made her annual trip with us to Tweetsie.  As always, it was an adventure.  Between the rain and Nick's lovely disposition (ie - he was being an ass), it got a little stressful at times.

Nick refused to get dressed that morning, so Chris put him in the car in his undies.  About half way up the mountain, he decided he WAS going to get dressed because, "Tweetsie won't let me in with my butt showing."

 Notice the crossed arms and the scowl.

 Still scowling...

Finally a smile!
