Jared's Birthday!

We are leaving today for California to see Tim's family. While there, Will is turning 3 and we'll get to celebrate with our California family on the 31st at a family birthday party at Tim's Nonie's house.

Makes me realize that I never posted pictures from Jared's 4 year old birthday!!!

Better late than never! ;-)

Jared's birthday falls right between Christmas and New Year's so we always celebrate the day of with a special family breakfast and family day. Here's Jared in his favorite hat at the time - both he and Will got to wear cowboy hats for Jared's birthday breakfast.

Due to the timing of the holidays, we do our actual celebration 3 weeks later in January with a backyard birthday party with some close family and friends. What a beautiful time of year to be outside! Here are some pics of Jared's trampoline party ...

The kids had a blast jumping. Tim did a great job as safety monitor. ;-)

The big moment ...


Happy boy opening presents!

Tim's grandparents even came out to celebrate! The boys loved
having Grandpa Len and Grandma Bertie out here at their house!


Tim's parents came too. In all 6 birthdays we've celebrated to date with the boys, I don't think they've missed even one. Seriously, they've come out from California every time. We are so blessed they love us so well. ;-)


So fun to look at these pictures from a few months ago. We have such great family and friends. Can you tell from looking at these pics just how happy Jared was? He LOVES when its his birthday and we love celebrating our very special first born son. ;-)
