Turning "4" and "29"!!!

I titled this post to be all about mine and Cayson's birthday but I need to add some pics from an ACS (American Cancer Society) event we had this weekend.....
Spike's Sandlot hosted a co-ed softball tournament at the Laurel Sportsplex this past Saturday and ALL proceeds went to benefit the ACS. It was an extremely HOT day but walking away with $2100 to help find a cure for cancer, makes all the sweat well worth it. Games started at 9:00 a.m. (the committee got their at 7:00 a.m.) and ended at 9:00 p.m. We were all supper exhausted by the end of the day..... we didn't do anything but sell consessions so I can only imagine how the players felt :)


Some of our Relay Committee (aka my bestest friends!!!)

Our winning team.... S&S Line Supply

Now for the Birthday Fun!!!!
Yesterday was my 29th birthday and my little man's 4th birthday. Monday night we celebrated his birthday (and a little of mine) with some of our family and friends!!! Pictures will say it all, but according to Cayson "this was the bestest birfday eva"!!! :)

Mickey Mouse was the theme for the party!!!
Red Velvet for me!!!!


I just love his big grin!!!!

 
Yes, my mom put 29 candles on my cake!!!
The greatest gift ever!!! He has shot those disks all over the house.


His sissy got him the matching mask so to him he was the real Captain America!!
My whole world!!!!
Me and my dad!!!
Anna and Brooke
Me and Baby Zachary Parnell :)

This year we are doing small family and friend parites for both the kids since their BIG birthday surprise is coming in September when we reveal their big trip.... until then it is hush hush at our house!!! They have NO clue about any of it so that makes it so exciting.....They are going to flip out and I can't wait!!!!

Hope everyone has a great week!!! Be back soon!!!

Lately.....

Yes, I am the worst blogger ever!!! It has almost been 2 months since my last post... not because nothing has been going on but NO time to stop and type. I have started several blogs but didn't have time to finish them. Then to take the time to download the pics off my camera, its been too crazy for that!!
Well, I am here now with lots of good cute pics of my babies, family, and friends. We have stayed super busy over the past month and a half so I will just do a small recap with few words and lots of pictures!!!

I will go all the way back to 4th of July.... We went to the firework show at the mall then shot fireworks at our house on the 4th... not many pictures from this event but the ones I have say it all.... Kids love fireworks!!

 
Zach's first firework experience and he was AMAZED... (Jason & Jennifer's baby boy)

Cayson loves the fireworks but not real sure about the noise.... 

Too amazed at the fireworks to stop and take a pic with his mommy.

Then came my hubby's 33rd birthday party!! He was not thrilled about turning 33 so to help him enjoy his day, I invited several of his friends and our families over for supper, cake, and ice cream. We partied (7 adults playing phase 10) till midnight that night. It was the most fun we have had in a while.
He wouldn't let me order a cake.... This is homemade from his mom!!! It was delicious!!!


The only pic I took other than ones of Casey... I have been slacking with my camera lately
Love my mom and sisters (Lacy was at the beach this weekend :( )

That same weekend we had 2 other parties for some friends of ours that we go to church with. I only managed to take my camera to one of them. This is Caleb Bustin's party (Our friends Jana and Mikey's little boy). Kids had a ball!!!

My little man slip n slidding


He LOVES cupcakes!!! :)

Cutest cake!!!


We are so proud!!! lol.... pink barbie jeep was a big hit!!


Louging around at home has become a new obsession for the kiddos since its SO hot outside so they have found ways to entertain themselves....
He says he has to wear his spiderman costume (from last halloween) when he watches it on TV
Of course he does :)


We actually had a mother/daughterS date to eat at Landrum's Country one Thursday night for my Mt Vernon's womens fellowship class. The food and fellowship was great!!!

Mine and my sister Lacy's shopping adventure with 3 kids... it was interesting!!!

Then we had the dreaded 5th's disease come to our house... This picture doesn't do it justice but my poor baby's face was so red for about 4 days then it spread to his limbs. It is extremely hard to get rid off but supposedly they are only contagious before they break out.... which makes no sense to me!!
Thankfully it is gone and we hope it NEVER comes back!!!
 I know it looks like he feels bad but he really didn't.... He just got tired of me taking pics of his "sunburn"

 
Just a pic of my pretty little girl... Thankfully her daddy is good looking because she looks just like him!!!

One Sunday before church.... most of these pics are cell phone pics because its so much easier to get to!!

1st day of 3rd grade!!! I put Casey in charge of the "1st day of school pics" so thats why it looks so dark. The other one I have was taken outside and the sun made her have a terrible look on her face so this will have to do.

The only way to shop at Kroger!!!

A dentist visit for Anna to get 2 fillings... The gas made her SO loopy, it was hysterical!!!

This past weekend we went camping with a few friends from church (Jana & Mikey Bustin and Craig & GeorgeAnn Walters). We went to Paul B in Hattiesburg and had a blast!!!

The 4 of us stayed up till after midnight partying hard....lol (playing scrabble)
This game is my new addiction!! I love it!!!

Jana and Mikey

Kilah (Jana & Mikey's little girl) and Cayson riding bikes
They rod from 8:00 Saturday morning till 6:30 Saturday night.. they were exhausted!!

My little man in his new swimsuit!!!

Enjoying the shade!!! It was so humid this weekend!!!

Thanks for bearing with me as I took you through the last month and a half... Sorry it is so long but I will TRY to do better. Right now our weeks consist of school/work, supper, homework, baths, and bedtime. Not much to blog about that....except that we love our family time with our 2 kiddos!!!!
We have started playing board games with them at least a few nights a week and it is so much fun!!!
Have a great week and weekend... Be back later!!!
