We had a family get together in a church parking across the street from the temple so we could go see temple lights after doing a little birthday celebration for Andrew. I made a cupcake cake in hopes of making it easier to eat without the need for plates and forks....but this proved to be a bit messy with all the extra icing. It sure was tasty though!
Drew was pretty excited about this cake and did a great job at blowing out the candles...amongst the usual 5-year old stray spraying that goes along with blowing out candles! Drew opened presents and loved spending time with his cousins!
Of course there is the dreaded STAR which we first encountered two years ago when Drew was deathly afraid...and again, this year was no different. Not sure why the star is so scary. Funny, funny boy.
These two were ADORABLE that night. I didn't have to really worry about Drew because I knew Haley was right there with him. What sweet little cousins....and oh her hair - are those not the most gorgeous curly locks you have ever seen!?
Ashley was so cute with Carter and trying to get him to take a picture. He is such a little sinker! She looks beautiful and I guess Carter gets a pass since the back of his head is pretty cute with those curls of his~
Brig was explaining to Eli which cousin was Carter and which was Caleb. It was so funny to see the look on Eli's face when he saw the two together. He had been calling Caleb Carter for a while now - these boys are all within four months of each other!
Maylee and Bradley spent some quality time together. She was loving touching his face and studying him. So cute! Holly and her family drove all the way there to spend just a few minutes - she is so sweet! We were able to catch this great picture of us and our little girls - I have to say that girls are pretty fun!
Happy happy birthday Drewbie! His "official" birthday celebration was a couple days later, but it was so fun to spend time with so much family!!!
