Carter and Avery's birthday party

Last weekend we celebrated Carter and Avery's birthday. Carter will be turning 4 in September and Avery turned 2. Its so hard to believe how big they are getting. I honestly can't believe that Gavin's 1st birthday is right around the corner and a month later Dylan will turn 4. Anyway, the party was a blast. The weather turned out to be really nice too. The kids played outside and they enjoyed hitting the Dora pinata. They especially loved the candy too.

After that game, they played pin the bracelet on Dora. That game cracked me up because the little ones didn't know what to think and they wanted to peak. The older kids spun around the number of years they were and that was pretty cute seeing how dizzy they could get. Angie's niece Audrey won the game. She was pretty happy. We enjoyed having her around too. She was Gavin's little babysitter the whole day. It was nice having my arms free for awhile =)


Keagan wasn't too thrilled getting his picture taken by the Dora poster. I just thought it was pretty funny.



The next day, our neighbors came over to see if Dylan and Gavin could do pudding paint. Well... of course. they loved it. It was a little messy, but that was ok. Poor Gavin just got pudding all over him. The kids would just plop it on his head. Of course Dylan did that to me too. Afterwards, Kim hosed them down. They have warm water hookups outside, so it was awesome for them. It literally was like taking a shower outside.
