Happy Birthday Liam!

As if a trip to Disney was not enough, the weekend after we got back from Disney World, we had a party for Liam with some of his family. Liam's Aunt Amy was here for his birthday as well as his Uncle Richard, Aunt Roxanne, and his cousin Sydney. He had a smiley face themed party because he is such a happy boy!



Liam was just as fascinated with the fire as he was with the cake.



Liam has started to make the association with someone holding a camera in front of their face to posing for a good picture. The "smile" is a little goofy looking in person, but it is based in love so it is SUPER cute!



Here is Liam reading a new book with his Aunt Amy. His Aunt Penny from Indiana always sends lots of nice goodies for both of her great nephews around birthdays and special holidays. Thank you Aunt Penny!



Here are Mom, Dad & both boys in the spoils of the party. It was a nice, low-key gathering and a lot of fun was had by all. Thank you to everyone who could join us in person. For those who could not join us, we understand and hope that you enjoy our pictures!

First Family Vacation

So we took the plunge during the first week of April, it just so happened to coincide with Liam's birthday, and set out for Disney World. We knew that neither one of the boys will likely remember it, but it was fun all the same.

Nicole's parents joined us for the weekend at Disney and it turned out to be a blessing in multiple ways. The weather was abysmal for the first couple of days and without their help, we would have likely been stuck indoors for two days. In addition, Nicole's mom decorated Liam's birthday cake, masterfully, in a hotel room and we gave her the "Boy Scout Award" for the day. If you are prepared to decorate a cake, on a moments notice, you deserve SOME kind of an award!

We had a GREAT time! We have two sweet boys with these amazing personalities which keep blossoming and have us scratching our heads wondering where they got it from and how we got SO lucky to have them. We laugh, enjoy all of the non-stop entertainment, and keep doing what we're doing because it seems to be working :)

We came home to Wes's sister, who had a conference in Atlanta the weekend that we returned from Disney. She was able to be here for Liam's in-town Birthday Party. Pictures from that will be on the next post!
