Ryan's Happy "Un-Birthday" at School

Ryan's amazing school allowed each kid with a summer birthday to have a special birthday party before the school year ended.  It was such a special day!  Ryan was the leader for the day, he wore a special hat, they threw him a party, and he received a coupon for a free ice cream! I was allowed to join the party, and it happened to be on a day that Lilly was at home with me (due to a nasty allergy attack) so she was able to join her "brudder" for the special day.  I can't believe my sweetheart will be 4 in June.  sniff.

Singing Happy Birthday with real candles to blow out!

The entire class, minus sweet Addie.

Passing out his birthday cookies to everyone (he was very specific about what type/color of cookies to buy).  Apparently he knew what he was doing b/c when the kids saw the yummy treats they all screamed that these "were their favorite cookies!" and all 11 kiddos gobbled them up in record time!

Of course, Ryan and Lilly had next to one another.

Every couple of weeks we have a popcorn movie party in our living room.

This is Ryan protesting my song in the car.  He wanted his music.  Hahaha!  It was cracking me up.

Stopped at Hobby Lobby and the hat and flower were randomly on the bench.  He put  it on himself and posed.  Such a ham.

We went to Moody Gardens and we watched a 3d movie.  It was his first movie ever and he did great!  

Easter

For the 4th year in a row we had our family over for Easter brunch, and like always, it was a blast.  We enjoyed a delicious Easter brunch followed by the, now famous, Grammy Egg Hunt.  The kids had a blast and made sure that each cousin had an equal amount of eggs at the end.  Which was good, because each egg contained money!  Grammy also had an surprise Easter egg pinata and confetti eggs!  

Lilly's Birthday Party

We celebrated Lilly's birthday with all of her friends and family.  It was a donut and jammie party complete with a bounce house and a face painter/balloon artist.  All of the kids seemed to have a great time.  The best part is, we had the bounce house for 1 1/2 days.  We had lots and lots of fun in the bounce house and Ryan is already thinking of excuses to rent another.

This is Lilly's obsession come to life.  She had to leave the outfit on for her nap.
