This past Saturday, Joseph's mom, two sisters, and a niece and nephew travelled down to our house to spend the day. It was the perfect fall Saturday morning. The air was nice and crisp and a perfect day for roaming around downtown doing some shopping. The kids did very well shopping and of course what did they spot on the way back to the car? This poor fellow!
I believe that the painted horse was downtown for a breast cancer awareness fundraiser. It was so much fun watching the little ones get their hands dirty for a good cause. (and some fun, too!)
First up was Cooper. She is absolutely a doll.
Then, it was Cameron's turn. What a cutie patootie, if I may say so myself!!
And finally, it was time to pet the donkey. I thought the donkey was quite festive in it's little pink bow!!
I'm so glad that they all came down to spend the day. It was a very special treat to have them come down for a visit.
On Sunday, I drove down to my parent's house to go celebrate this little man's third birthday. (whew. i'm tired just thinking about last weekend and all that was going on!)
Isn't he too cute in his new glasses? And surprisingly, he has done very well with learning to wear them. Go Barrett!! So I think that he deserved to go a little crazy on his birthday!!
After the candles were blown out, it was time to get to the good part. Eating the cupcakes!!
And of course, after this cupcake massacre, he wanted to give his Sissy (me) a big ole' kiss. Thanks.
I'm a good sport. And the icing only made his sweet sugar even sweeter!! After that, it was fast a furious present opening.
And finally, the party was over and time to head home.
So all in all, I had a very blessed weekend. I got to spend time with Joseph's family and mine. It was such a rare occasion, but so very wonderful!
