Great Grandma Cookie's 90th Birthday Weekend

We went to Grandma Cindy's house for the weekend to celebrate Great Grandma Cookie's 90th birthday and Don's 95th birthday. There was a party scheduled for Sunday and lots of family was in town to celebrate as well. We got to meet a couple cousins we hadn't met before who live in Seattle....Catherine and Theo. Catherine is 5 and Theo will be 1 at the beginning of November. We also got to spend time with Aunt Jan (unfortunately Grant and Emma couldn't come this time) and our cousins Sydney, Bella, Aidan and Owen.

We played at Grandma Cindy's house Saturday morning/afternoon but went to Uncle Sid and Aunt Susie's that night for dinner. We played there with all of our cousins and had great food.

Sunday was the big party and that morning we went to the state park in Bluffton to get some fresh air. It was a beautiful day for the party and we are so blessed to celebrate these wonderful milestones with Cookie and Don!!

Enjoy the photos!
We were excited to be at Grandma's house

Jackie played games with us

Daddy played a new game with us....he put us both in a sleeping back and drug us down the stairs!! We LOVED it!!

Then, he carried us back up the stairs and we repeated these steps several times! We have the best daddy!

Jackie brought her friend Taylor to Grandma's and they had a formal dance to get ready for Saturday night. They spent 4 hours in the bathroom curling their hair. They look beautiful, don't they?? I sure thought they were pretty neat!

I played "Just Dance" on the wii with my cousins Catherine and Sydney. They were really good!

Vivi watched us!



Don is so good at talking to kiddos and we all just love him! Don's kids were in town too.

We love our Aunt Jan!

Cousins Kelly, Theo and Amy from Seattle. They are so much fun!
