1st Birthday!

Because things have been so busy and we've been gone almost every weekend, we had to wait until last weekend (Memorial weekend) to have Cade's First Birthday party. He actually turned 1 back on 4/22. This year he won't know any different so I figured it would be ok! We just had family and a few close friends. And of course his BFF, Oliver, was there to help him celebrate. Happy Birthday, sweet Cade! You bring so much joy to our lives and you have so many people that love you and care about you. Your big smile brightens our day. Love you bunches.



Cade loves balloons! He carried that orange balloon with him everywhere. He had it tied to his wrist at one point during the party.

And Oliver had a blue one!

Clapping because he's proud of himself for sticking his finger in his cake.

Of course, he preferred to eat it with a spoon! He was not interested in using his hands.

Cade got some car keys and that is what Oliver is pointing at.

Oliver loved those keys!

Destin 2010!

I have got to get better at updating our blog. I take pictures all the time so there is no excuse! So much has happened since my last post...I don't know where to begin. So, I will start with our family summer vacation to Destin, FL - back in May. We went with my parents and had a blast. Cade's first time on the beach! The first day out he met a girl. Her name is Hailey and she is 14 months. I guess he has a thing for older women. Cade couldn't resist giving her a kiss on the cheek. Too cute! Cade also rode on the airplane for the first time. He did great! And it was one of those small American Eagle planes. There's hardly any room on those things! On the way out there it was just the two us and then Matt flew out a couple days later. Luckily, on the way home daddy was there to help. Made things a lot easier! Here are some pics from the trip... I've got more but they are on my iphone and I can't get them off! Once I do, I will post them.
