The Tri-Birthday Party
Tyler was one of the "birthday boys"!


This weekend we traveled down to Stacey and John's house for a "Tri-Birthday" celebration which became a "Quad-birthday" celebration due to the arrival of little Kaiden. John and Dane's birthdays were 2 weeks ago and Tyler's is next week so we decided to celebrate them all together. We had a great time. Stacey is a wonderful hostess and we spent our time stuffing our fat faces and laughing...and squealing over our new nephew. We talked to Kirk, Jayme and my mom numerous times and Kirk sent several cell-phone pictures. Jayme put the phone by Kaiden so the "aunts" could listen to him cry and tell him we loved him.

John is birthday boy number 2




John turned 38 this year, Tyler turns 36, and Dane turned 2!! John and Tyler picked their favorite meals for the extravaganza (Dane didn't really care this year). John picked a hot spicy seafood gumbo!! Fabulous! Tyler picked the meal he picks EVERY year... Chicken Enchilada Casserole. John picked an eggnog pound cake with a strawberry/raspberry sauce and whipped cream for his cake and Tyler picked a brownie mocha torte (this is the cake I requested pretty much every birthday when I was a kid.) SO GOOD!


Ty..getting some help "blowing out" the candles...I had to resort to number candles...36 wouldn't fit on the torte!! :)


Dane is little "birthday boy" number 3...he was too tired to care.


Kelley and Jason...such a CUTE couple!!




All the cousins had a WILD time playing together. By the end of the day...with no naps...Ailey and Dane had about had it!



Aunt Kelley in her element!!
