Porter's Birthday

On September 5th Porter turned 6! He wanted a "Shark Party" and we celebrated with ALL the Liddell cousins, aunts, uncles, and Grandma and Grandpa - what a fun night! Here are a few pics from the party:

Pin the Fish on the Shark!

Decorating the table cloth and coloring fish!

After the party, he had a few quiet moments to himself to REALLY enjoy his new toys - and boy has he been enjoying them! Thanks so much for all the wonderful gifts!

The "Birthday Shark" poster was created by Makenna and I! While Peter took Porter and Charley out for the afternoon, Makenna and I decorated for Port's party - I drew the poster and Kenna painted it, we had so much fun!

Since Porter has had his big 6th birthday and is starting Kindergarten on Monday, Peter and I have been feeling very sentimental about our baby boy growing up. We wanted to look back and remember the day he was born - what a special boy and what a special day!


We love you Porter! We're so glad you had such a Happy Birthday!

Cold Cheeks at Three Creeks

In spite of fair warning, we decided to brave the wind and go up to swim at Three Creeks Lake! With the Boivie kids in tow, Grandma Liddell wanted to provide fun entertainment while Uncle Greg and Aunt Robin enjoyed a relaxing mini get away! Trish, Maria, and I plus our kids came along for the fun - and in spite of forceful wind gusts and the occasional sand storm, the kids had fun and always do swimming, getting sand down their pants, digging, and especially getting Grandma wet! You're a sport Debbie!
