Waiting out Ike and Birthdays!!

So this year Matthew turned 4 and Aubrey turned 3, although we didn't do a big party for the kids they had a blast. We actually ended up doing 3 little parties since Hurricane Ike ruined our other plans.

One night we did a pre birthday party with Aunt Deanne so she could get on the road and head back to Little Rock. Here are a couple of pictures of the kids with their gifts.

And here is one of the balloons I picked up. They were Super excited about the balloons.

After this little party - the next day we headed to Cuero to stay with my parents and pretty much the rest of the family along with my brothers friends.

We had a good time and so did the kids. We had another party for them, made a birthday cake together, played washers and lots of games. Here are some pictures of it.

The kids opening their fishing poles. Matthew got Batman and Aubrey got Barbie.

Then the following week we did a little party again at Grammie and Grandpa's so they could give the kids their gifts. Here are the pictures.
