Riley And Brandon's Birthday Party

Since Riley was born 3 days before Brandon's birthday we now celebrate them together (Poor Brandon). So on Sat. July 17th, which just happened to be my Step Mom's birthday, we did a party for Riley and Brandon. We had all our family there plus a bunch of Ry's friends. We set up the water slide in the backyard for the kids to play on and had a pinata. The boys were really enjoying picking on the girls by spraying them with the water cannon. Talk about a lot of loud screaming girls. Once the boys were chased away from the cannon though the girls got even. They were all so cute and had a great time on the slide.


The Kids Playing On The Slide
When we got ready to do the pinata I thought for sure it wouldn't last long, boy was I wrong. We couldn't get the stupid thing to break. It even got to the point we stopped blind folding them and it still didn't help. Finally we let Ry go to town on the thing until it broke.


The Pinata

After it was on to the presents. Ry has some really cute friends. One of his best friends gave him 2 things of candy and $15 cash. Ry really got a kick out of it. He loved all the presents his friends and family gave him. I think the only presents Riley was not real excited about was of course the clothes. He truely is spoiled or well loved depending on which way you want to look at it. Riley really had a great birthday and party.

Family And Friends

After all of Ry's friends left we sang Happy Birthday to Brandon and had him open his presents. Brandon made it real easy to shop for him this year. He told me he wanted gift certicates. He got to go shopping with his Mom and Dad a couple days earlier and pick out what he wanted. It was a great day for Brandon as well. That night we went to dinner for their birthdays and Brandon it was a great way to end the night.
