We decided to not let our party completely fizzle out, and headed to a local creek instead. Both of the boys LOVE creeks, especially ones with rocks on the banks. They'll sit and throw rocks for HOURS if we let them. We found a little shady spot and watched the boys gleefully splash around and toss rocks to their little hearts content.

really, I just can't get over Connor's baby belly. I'm in no rush for his sweet chubbers to go away

Brayden has (sometimes) started to ask to have his picture taken, and will even give a genuine smile. I love these two guys so much!

PRE.SHUSH. I hope he always loves his daddy as much as he does now. There's no one else on Earth I'd rather either of my boys to emulate than this man.

I rarely embrace the camera. Thought I'd come out for a bit :)

poor Con-con is so allergic to something in the air. By the time we left his eyes were swollen and bloodshot.

I love his little imagination.
The evening was a perfect cap on a perfect day for our family, and made us ready for our lake day with friends on Sunday. I'll post those pictures soon :)
