Birthday Party

Hayden and I went to Conway on Saturday for my niece's birthday party. She turned 7. Hayden is not really thrilled with that because they will be the same age until he turns 8 in (gulp) less than four months!!
Saturday was actually my nephew's birthday. I canNOT believe he is 12. Time has just flown. Here he is with Mommaw and Poppaw! Isn't he just so handsome?Poppaw and Mommaw with all the grands.
His favorite soccer team is the Arsenal. So you know I had to search far and wide to find gifts having to do with the Arsenal for him. (That's what any good Nannie would do, right?) I cannot even express how much this guy means to us. Hayden just adores him. I will always have a special place in my heart for him. He was our first little boy! Gosh, he is not little any more.
He is so psyched to be getting as tall as his Momma.
Now on to the birthday party girl....her party was at a gymnastics facility. The kids all had a grand time playing and being silly.
Waiting is sooooo hard.......
Even for cousins......
The rope swing into the pit was one of Hay's favorite activities....
Wouldn't it have been nice if I had not cut his head off in the picture? HAThere was a lot of running and we loved that.....
Two of my very favorite people.....aren't they beautiful?
My niece LOVES turtles so Hayden and I got a precious gift bag with turtles on it for her....I think she likes it as much as the gifts.....
A little surprised, maybe?
I think she liked this gift too!
Another photo of my pretty lil' sis
Silly little birthday girl.....(her momma will be so proud I got this picture)
There is just no telling what was going on here.....
More waiting.......
Aren't those attempts at smiles pitiful? These were two worn out puppies by this time in the party.
