Mercer Baby Shower

Saturday, the 27th, Byron's family threw a baby shower for baby Harper. We were privileged to be guests. It was a beautiful shower!

Mom, Steph, and I gave Andrea a baby blanket and taggie that we had made out of the bridesmaids dresses from Andrea and Byron's wedding. Thanks to my talented friend LeAnn who can turn any one of my crazy ideas into a reality.

The countdown is on !

6 more weeks!

Payne Baby Shower

Sunday, the 28th, we threw Andrea, Byron, and Baby Harper a baby shower at my parents. Hostesses don't always have a lot of time to take pictures. It was a great day with lots of guests, and great food. Andrea and Harper got lots of great gifts!

Happy Birthday Steve

August 25th was Steve's 33rd Birthday! We celebrated in the morning before work. I made breakfast and went to the Doughnut Bank and got his favorite Fruit Fritters. We even let him open his gifts before work.

That night, We went to Stanton and Shirley's for dinner. She made a great meal and Stanton grilled Steaks.

Happy Birthday Steve. Thanks for being a great Husband and Father!

Hayden's Birthday

Sunday night, we helped our little Buddy, Hayden celebrate his 7th Birthday. He had an Angry Bird themed party. We had lots of great food, cake, and Ice Cream. 

Happy Birthday Hayden and Thanks for letting us celebrate with you!!!!!!!

Steve put in this Bamboo Floor! Beautiful!

Hannah's Birthday

Saturday night, we celebrated my Goddaughter Hannah's 5th Birthday with a small family gathering. The theme was Smurfs and she dressed in a white dress just like Smurfette wears. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, cake, and ice cream. Conner loved playing with all of their toys in the basement. He was in Heaven. We got Hannah a pink Lego set and Conner got her a "Book about Me" where she can write an autobiography. Thanks Hannah for a great time. We love you Lots.

Happy Birthday #1

Steve's Birthday is Thursday, and we have a really busy weekend to follow, so Friday night, my parents came down and we celebrated with them. I made dinner and a cake. After school, Conner helped me decorate it. We first put cream cheese icing on it. Then, I gave him a bag of yellow icing to decorate with. He put it all in one spot. Then, I put some sprinkles in a bowl so he didn't dump the whole bottle on the cake. I told him to put the sprinkles on next, as I walked out to go get the mail. I come back in and Conner had put the bowl of sprinkles on the cake. Too cute. He was so proud of his decorating that I had to leave the bowl right where it was placed not to hurt his feelings!

Steve loved his cake!! Thanks Conner!

Happy 1st Birthday Riley

Our Nephew, Riley, turned 1 this week and Saturday night was his Birthday Party!

Happy Birthday Riley!

Between making plates and chasing toddlers, I didn't take many pictures this year at all!
