Riley Turned 4 This Year

One year older and this year it just had to be Transformers. Grandma Jo and Papa Kevin bought Riley both the Optimus Prime and Bumblebee costumes. He didn't wear them at the party but he has worn them plenty before and after and will be wearing one or both for Halloween. He (we) is (are) blessed to have such wonderful friends and family. He had such a great time, swimming, bouncing, hitting (the pinata), eating, unwrapping, and especially playing. Thank you to everyone who came!

Happy 4th Birthday Riley!!!

Here's to wishes coming true.

ALL THINGS SPIDERMAN

My little boy is all grown up, or so he says.


Riley turned 3 on July 16th, we didn't have his party that day but we went to the movie with friends Jack, Ty, Tori and Trace. It was Riley's first experience with Veggie Tales. On July 17th we had a litttle party for him, thank you to Daniel and Brit Dye's parents ~ they let us use their incredible back yard. We swam and BBQ'd and had a great time. I didn't take many swim pictures but luckily one of our reisdent photographers was on point and did. So, to see more of the swimming check out Brit Dye's Blog http://danielandbrittneydye.blogspot.com/! Riley has been saying that he was going to have a spiderman birthday for week so what else could we do but Spiderman.



Here's the birthday boy with his presents.

Too much partying did him in.




Riley's presents revisited. Riley tore through his gifts so quickly that I set them back up so he could actually see what he got. This is what he came down to the next morning.




I love my little (grown up) boy more than words can describe. Thank you Riley for making my life richer. Happy 3rd Birthday!!!!!



Thank you also to great friends! We treasure the frienships we have made here in Las Vegas and in our Ward and look forward to many more BBQs, birthday parties, and gatherings in genereal!
