Happy Birthday to.....

Grandma and Grandpa Beeker and Sheri. We celebrated some family birthdays this weekend with the Beekers. Kevin's sister, Liz and her husband Andy, and Drew and Aaron came for the weekend for some fun cousin time and then Kevin's parents came for the day on Saturday for a little birthday party. We had a great time with the family!! The boys LOVED playing with their cousins...they had fun playing with adventure men in the basement, playing at the playground, chasing each other in the house, playing games, and just being boys!

On Friday, we went to Annapolis to get some ice cream...I have told you yet how much I love Annapolis. Its only 20 minutes away and is such a cute little town. We attend church in Annapolis so that is nice also! Then, Friday night we broke out our fire pit and had some smores. Yummy...Drew loves to make S'mores and greatly enjoyed that. Caleb went straight for the chocolate and I finally caught him after quite a few mouthfuls of chocolate bars...just like his momma would do : ) And TJ just sat on the swing very far from the fire...I think he has finally learned to stay away from hot things...unfortunately he had to learn the hard way by touching the grill top in Ohio and then touching the hot lawn mower here in Maryland. He learns the hard way apparently...just like his daddy! : )

On Saturday, the boys played outside and took a nature walk collecting all kinds of sticks and leaves and acorns....which I am still finding in Caleb's pockets. This gave me a chance to get the birthday cake made and cornbread ready for dinner. Chili and cornbread and chocolate birthday cake for dinner! Yummy...it must be fall!

My Grandma's Birthday

My Grandma had her 90th birthday this year and so we celebrated with my mom's side of the family in Delaware this Saturday. It was such a nice party and so great to see the family. I haven't seen most of them since last year at my dad's birthday party! My cousin hosted us at her house that she just moved into 3 weeks ago! She is amazing and so is her husband, especially because she is also 8 months pregnant and due in 6 weeks. I can't believe they hosted us...Thank you, Thank you!!! I hope they got lots of rest on Sunday!

We also saw some of my mom's cousins whom we haven't seen in awhile also...it was great to see them! And all the young cousins loved playing together!! They don't miss a beat with each other...its so fun to see! And their was some young boy cousins that had a fun group to play with also!!

They had a bouncy house and a huge backyard...more like woods that all the kids could play in. Caleb enjoyed finding worms with his cousins and feeding them to the fish. TJ loved his big cousin Bryce's trucks and Bryce was very sweet in sharing his trucks with TJ!!! Mark and Bonnie's twin girls were quite the troopers with everyone holding them and lots of commotion around them!! They are so cute and sweet and so big now! I can't believe it!

Of course, because my sis lives close, she had the privilege of driving with us to the party...which thankfully only took about an hour and 40 minutes. We are so close to our family! Yay!!! It was a very nice party and I'm so glad my Aunt and Uncle and cousins organized it for us! It was wonderful to see everyone! I'll put the pictures on the next post since I wrote so much! : )
