Good Times...

More good times in Van Wert!

Sarah and Mya 

Molly and Cayden

These two drove that car around all day!

Molly, Mya and Cayden

"Cheese"

Mya and her big brother!

Cayden loves his little sister!

I love her too!

Who wouldn't?

She is edible!

Good times!

Our fun day ended with a concert...

I bet you wish you were there too!

Happy Birthday Mya Brynn~

I should call this a "travel" blog!

I took Sarah and Molly and headed to Van Wert Ohio to

watch Cayden and Mya while their parents went

to a golf outing.

While we were there, we decided to celebrate Mya's birthday

a few days early since I won't be there for the actual birthday.

I really don't think she knew the difference!

Friday, August 17th is this sweethearts birthday~

We sang to her on Tuesday night!

She is 2~

Mya is just a little love.

No more Mya the crya!

Everyone now...

MYA IS TWO!

She loved opening presents with most of her cousins

helping her!  We missed our Layla bug tho!

We did FaceTime her and Uncle Tegan for a bit!

Then came a late night four wheeler ride!

Uncle Cyle tried to give Meme a heart attack when he came around

the house like this...

He said... "Calm down... it's in second gear, she isn't going anywhere!"

Yikes!

Then all the big kids got on for a ride!

Again there's that Birthday theme!

It was so fun seeing Cayden with his little buddy Ringo!

He is just the sweetest little Puggle!

We had a big day Tuesday 

and we all were excited to spend the whole day

together on Wednesday!

Make a wish...

We celebrated Kelley, Tegan and Layla's birthday while I was there!

Kelley was born on August 1st~

Tegan was born on August 3rd!

I am not going to make it back in October for Layla's big day

so we had celebrated them all at once!

She was a little confused about it all!

But she sure did enjoy eating that chocolate "to die for" ice cream cake

over three nights!

Yummy!

I will be sending her something really special for her 

2nd Birthday in October!

Hope all their birthday wishes come true!

Family Affair and some BIG NEWS!

Layla had some photos taken by her Meme...

We posed her with her Mommy,

We posed her by herself,

We posed her with her Daddy,

and then with her Mommy and her Daddy!

She was a little love throughout the photo shoot!

She really, really, really, and I mean REALLY

wanted the popsicle Meme was holding!

See her lick her lips?

It was a fun time!

BIG NEWS~

Melissa and Jason had their baby...

A BOY!

Welcome little Wyatt Madden to the world!

Mommy and baby are doing great~

Nonna Roxi is thrilled!

And just take a look at the big brother, Levi...

He looks pretty happy about Wyatt too!

Much love to my friend Roxi~

She is seeing STARS right now!

On the night that you were born...

Layla loves the book

On The Night You Were Born~

(Nancy Tillman)

"on the night you were born

 you brought wonder and magic to the world."

"On the night you were born, the moon shone with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered, 'Life will never be the same.' ...

I wrote her name on each page when I got her this book

so that when we read it we say her name over and over again!

On the last page I wished her sweet dreams...

I read it to her every day.

She will never have to "wonder who loves her... How much, or How far"~

because she will know it's her Meme who loves her up to God!

Life will NEVER be the same for me 

with this little gem in my world!

What a joy she is to me~

Meme will follow her where ever she goes...

She is my Laylabug~
