Catching up!

So far I’m failing miserable on my blogging goals!  I still haven’t even caught up yet!  So here it goes…

Happy 8th Birthday Drex!
It is seriously so fun having so many cousins in one place!  This is the 3rd cousin baptism we’ve gotten to be a part of!  Steve and Dan have some great examples in their older cousins!  August 20th was not only Drex’s birthday, but his baptism too.  It was a very special day!

Drex with his dad Charlie.

Later, after the baptism, we all gathered at the Blackburn’s for cake and presents!  Here’s the oldest cousins (in MO)!

Drex’s super cool car cake!

Singing happy birthday

Make a wish!

And it wouldn’t be a birthday without a picture of all the cousins eating cake!  YUM!

Happy birthday Drex!  We are so glad we were able to spend your special day with you!  We love you!

Happy 2nd Birthday Beaudie!

Beau got a trike for his birthday and of course Dan loved it to!  What cute cousins!

Happy birthday to you!  We love you we do!

Cousins and cake…what a good life!

These two!  love them!

Steve and Dan gave Beau this cake and mask…it was the first present he opened and he didn’t take it off the entire time he opened presents!  It was so cute!

Happy birthday little Beau!  We love you!

Happy Labor Day!

Our ward had a Labor Day picnic with a bike parade for the kids.  Steve was SO excited about the parade and couldn’t wait to decorate his bike and ride it in the parade!

Steve ready to ride.

We even decorated Dan’s little truck and he scooted along for a minute…then he would commandeer any abandoned bikes. 

Steve loved riding around and around.  It got a bit intimidating with so many kids and it seemed like one accident happened after another…but it sure was fun!

Ready, set, GO!

Ali’s bike was VERY pink!  Totally perfect for her!

Happy Birthday Liz!

We celebrated Liz’s birthday at the park with dinner and cake.  It was a gorgeous night and perfect for hanging out!

Strawberry shortcake, a Broadbent tradition!

I love our family!

Happy birthday Liz! XOXO
