Casual Backyard BBQ Shower!

We have the best friends that we think of as family. 
This past weekend "The Crew" out did themselves.  They truly know me...they threw Baby Boy the perfect "Casual" Backyard BBQ shower...right up my alley!!!! 

So the story goes...we pulled up to The Garland house to find a STATE flag blowing in the wind.  Michael commenting of course and me thinking "Wow Ty, you're overly excited about football season".

I walked in and had an "ah-ha" moment.  Check out his amazing cake. 

And the delicious spread....um yummy!  I was in pregnancy food heaven.  All my favorites.  Michelle's corn, KC's mac&cheese, dip, burgers and desserts galore!!!!

We had to do it - we cut the amazing cake - DELICIOUS!  Red velvet, raspberry cream filled - need I say more!!!!

The day was spent being entertained by the kids and laughing with friends!!!

The big kids teaching Lyla - Ring around the Rosie. 

Why is Lyla the only one standing?  Hilarious!!!!

Okay let's try this again....

Ashes, Ashes we all fall down....

That a girl Lyla :)

And the live footage. 

How sweet is Reese helping Lyla up at the end!!!!  The entire day Lyla was off with the big kids.  The times I saw her she was either holding someones hand or holding her own - oh yeah Lyla can definitely keep up with the Big Kids - there is no doubting that!!!!

A little mid-day Yo Gabba Gabba session....

Some boy talk....

Reese lost her 1st tooth - check out that glorious smile!!!

James walked into the bathroom to find all the kids in there - he walked right out and went on a hunt to find TY - 6 kids in a bathroom - red flag red flag!   Hilarious story that should have been captured on video too! 

The lil' ones that will soon be running around!!! Girls, girls, girls....let's just say Kaden and Tyson are happy to have another Boy coming into the world!   

Hello Alle!

Hello Jaida!

Hello Sofia!

I did not leave this chair ALL DAY! 

 The girls not only spoiled me rotten by bringing me drinks, food, cake but the ever-so-cute gifts concluded the perfect day!!!

If only she knew she was opening gifts for her brother - of course she thought everything was for her! 

As grandma said, "She's got her daddy's grin."  Haha!!!

Saying Thank You doesn't seem like enough!  "The Crew"  you are family to us and we hope you know how much we appreciate each one of you!!!!  MUAW!!!!!
