Worth 1,000 Words: Grandparent Birthday Weekend

We spent the weekend with the grandparents in Nebraska.  We all had a lot of fun and are attempting to recuperate today.  Unfortunately, the kiddos are both quite ill but the weather is cooperating nicely for a stay-inside-and-snuggle-all-day day.  Here are a few pics from our weekend!

I’ve had my eye on this shirt at Old Navy for a while but never bit the bullet and bought it.  Well, Tuesday I went into the Goodwill in North Platte and there it was, brand new in a 5T.  Love.

Funny faces are the best faces…

Sawyer wanted to pick out an ice cream cake for the birthday folks and she chose this beauty.  Uncle Waco helped her put the candles in and then we sang…and devoured it.

It’s quite colorful!
Happy birthday to you!

Sawyer reminds me soooo much of Wrex – an incredibly good thing.  She’s a great problem solver and gives everything a good try without giving up.  She loves to use tools and build and help, so she helped PaPa put his new work stool together…in a tutu, of course.

You must always be dressed for the occasion...

Wryder got to open an early birthday present.  He got a Duck Dynasty shirt and a toy tractor – what could be better?!

Work hard, nap hard

Sawyer and RaRa went on an afternoon adventure and found all kinds of fun things!

She stayed warm!

Wryder got to hang out with Uncle Waco and play with this balloon.  He wanted to pop it with his teeth soooo bad!

So sweet…

Sawyer got to practice shooting the toy gun, which she loved.  Daddy brought home his competition BB gun so we can start teaching some gun safety and usage come spring.

Everyone shoots in their underwear, right?!

This little guy was exhausted between all of the snuggles and playing and the time change.  We had to leave church and nap in the car.

Pooped.
Pooped.

We had to get a cute picture with the birthday grandparents!  Sawyer is quite the photo poser these days…

She looks like an angel…

On the way home, we made good use of the 77 degree weather and stopped at the park.  Wryder loved riding these horses…or chipmunks…whatever they were…

We’ll head that way again for Wryder’s first birthday!  Where has the year gone?!
