It Was More Like a Zoo Than a Circus!

Last Saturday Abigail had a double birthday party with her little cousin, Brayden, whose birthday is four days before Abigail's. My sister, Bethany, had been planning a circus-themed party, and we jumped on it when she offered to let us tag along. But as you can imagine, with friends and family from two different families there, we had the potential for a seriously packed house! Thankfully, the party was at Bethany and Bailey's house, and they have 60 acres that we could spread out on! Brayden's birthday is Nov. 8, Abby's is Nov. 12, and the party was held on my dad's birthday, Nov. 15. Here is my favorite picture of the birthday crew...

Between Bethany and me, our parents had five grandchildren in less than 3 1/2 years...and here are the sweet munchkins:

Jack and Brayden are two years old (they were born six weeks apart), Abby is 4, Isabel is 10 months, and Emma (who got confused and thought it was Easter) is 7 months old.
I'll leave you with one last shot of our precious angel...

What a fun day it was! Our little ones certainly enjoyed themselves, didn't they?! How blessed we are beyond measure.

Hi Allison! Mary brought pictures when she came down last week...they are wonderful! I can't wait for our family Christmas photo! I simply adored the kids birthday photos, and Bethany's yard made a perfect autumn setting for the outdoor pix. Beautiful!

How does one family (aka..Allison, Bethany) have such good genes??? I guess we have to throw Bailey and Josh in the mix somewhere! Precious, precious children.

Thanks for posting these.
