Happy Birthday Devin!

Devin turned 11 this week! Can you believe it? This is his year for a family party, not a friend party, so we planned a swim party at my mom's on Saturday. Then, it forecasted rain and was supposed to be nice on Memorial Day, so we moved it. Poured today, oh well. Yesterday we had some family over for dessert (after eating Devin's birthday dinner of choice--chicken & broccoli casserole--Shaylee opted for leftover mac & cheese--ugh). Anyway, here's a picture of him blowing out the candles on his cream puffs:

Showing off his Alvin & the Chipmunks movie:

His camo shorts from grandma, "Where are they?"

A serious super soaker from his cousin Ryan:

Jeremy & Cynthia were borrowing the cotton candy machine for the 6th-grade carnival, so Grandma & Grandpa Brown brought it up, and of course we had to test it out to make sure Jeremy knew how to use it:

Devin and Ryan love cotton candy!

YUM!

Jonathan (Alicia's fiance) enjoyed it as well.

Devin sporting his new shirt from Grandma & Grandpa Brown:

Star Wars legos from Grandpa & Grandma Pearson (yes, he's already built the spider droid). What do you think of that new haircut?

Shaylee & Breezy play Dance, Dance Revolution.

Shaylee enjoying the spa (the rain was so cold).

Devin's thinking, "This pool party is the best!"

Aspen telling mom, "Just go over there and I'll shoot this water to you." Uh huh.

Connor is, of course, sick again with RSV, so he stayed inside with grandma. Thanks mom for letting us use your pool and for the great BBQ--we loved it! I got off easy with root beer floats. :)
