Happy Birthday Townsend Cayden!

You were born on July 19, 2008. Who knew how you would change our lives~

You were so very special~ You were in good hands having Bridget and Cyle for your Mommy and Daddy!

Your smile thrilled us!

Oh, those cheeks~ so kissable! And that belly laugh~ so contagious!

You were born with a sweet disposition~ not much bothered you and you tolerated so, so much!

So happy all the time!

Those eyes so blue~

You had a FIRST birthday. Meme loved celebrating with you at your lake house!

You were so excited that everyone was there!

No one loves you like Mommy!

Priceless Gem.

That year brought some tough breaks... every time you tried to walk~

But your spirit stayed "Unbreakable"! You said, "I am ONE"

You learned to walk alone right around your SECOND birthday~

What a big boy!

You were pretty pleased with yourself on that big day!

You turned 2 and we had a party at Meme's house!

You laughed so hard, that belly laugh we love so much, when we all sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

You said, "Cayden's two!"

Now you are THREE YEARS OLD. Meme cannot believe this is true~ where has the time gone.

You are my FAVORITE GRANDSON and I wish you the happiest of days today! Mommy says when she asks you what you want for your birthday, you say, "THREE CANDLES!" Have fun making a wish and blowing out your THREE CANDLES today Cayden! Meme and Papa can't wait to celebrate with you! Hugs and Kisses Townsend Cayden~

Kayla... are you listening?

Cayden and Kayla. Boy and Pit Bull. Scary? Nuh...

Kayla is the smartest, most well behaved dog I have ever seen. She belongs to Danny. She is staying with us ~ Danny is living here a bit before heading out to Colorado.

Cayden tells Kayla, "come with me Kayla"

"You are a good girl. Want to come with me?"

"Come on, this way Kayla"

"Kayla.... are you listening?"

"Come on"

"Come on Kayla."

"Kayla..."

Cayden gives up. Kayla doesn't listen.

But, really, she is the BEST DOG EVER!

Linking up with Communal Global~

Happy to be home again!

We are back home from our Road Rash 2011 trip and we are so glad to see our little gems! I have many things to post about~ Here's just a preview!

We had a private concert at the pool~

Miss Layla Lynn sent love on this post! Isn't she so beautiful?

Beckie and Donny had a Cornhole Tournament again this year!

Danny just might have won it...

The kids played down by the creek and Sarah found herself a frog or two! She proudly wore her Adopt-A-Lion Hat from the Grand Canyon that Meme and Papa got her!

We also had a family pool party the night before Bridget, Cyle and Cayden set off for his yearly appointment at Shriners Hospital in Montreal, Canada. Everyone was happy to this guy!

Molly cried when she saw me come walking toward her~ she hugged me so tight and just cried in my ear! Happy tears that her Meme was home again!

More happy faces...

We kept Mya with us while her family went to Canada. She was sad without her Mommy. We took pictures anyway!! She was only content in my arms... like she thought "I lost one mommy so I am not letting this Meme out of my sight!"
