Jackson's birthday party was a total success! This year, we decided to have just a small party - easy party - and Fast Lanes is so close to our house - I knew J would love it. So we invited his very best friends and he could not be more excited!!! We started by having a BBQ at our house after church.... with my mom, dad, brother and his new girlfriend Tiffany.... And Ryan's dad drove up from Little Rock!! We opened the family presents and then promised Jackson that after his nap, we could go to HIS birthday party! He didn't fight us at all - he went right to sleep! At his party, he just had the most fun! The rest is history!
My silly brother.... and Tiffany. :)
Ethan was as fascinated with Papa as he was with him!
The silly continues.
He is officially a bowling "pro" now after bowling 2 days in a row!
Thank God my mom kept Ethan the entire time.... She fed him at the bowling alley - then he fell asleep in her arms. She really helped me a TON.
YAY! Jackson is so happy!!
The daddies help w/ the bowling... which became a free-for-all.
Grandpas!
Jackson and all of his buddies!!
Thomas birthday cupcakes! Thanks to Joy at Pricecutter in Rogers! GREAT JOB!
Blowing/spitting - it's all the same, right?
My super precious gorgeous three year old!!
Some little birthday boy started a trend!!! Here's Anna and Ben!What a fun group!!
Haley, Carlie, EdenJackson got a bowling pin and all the "kids" (and their mommys!) signed their names!
Cole was so cute to help me identify all the presents... He was Jackson's helper!
BALLADIUM! I was just so sure this game was going to be such a hit for the kids... but it was more of a hit for the adults!Finally back at home! Papa spent the night and got one last hug for his grandboys. :)
Ethan was a trooper all day long... he truly is "Jackson's #1 Fan!"
Jackson modeling 2 of his new toys! His new skateboard from his best friend Ben and his new bike from his Mimi. These 2 pictures were taken at 915pm.... Why was my son up that late? Because the weather in Northwest Arkansas is crazy these days (note the picture of the tornado that was close to us on the TV in the background!) and we were worried we'd have to take cover (which we DID do at 1100pm!!)
