HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLUE!!

This is my precious nephew Blue - cutest little boy ever. When he was here for Mckenna's baptism I totally fell in love with him - just a sweet little boy. He called me Crystal. He turns 4 today! This last week he was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. Our hearts are aching for him and his family. We love you Blue!

What a Weekend!!

What an amazing weekend we had! The icing on the cake was Mckenna's baptism. It was such an amazing day. She just beamed with excitement. She looked beautiful. We were so grateful for all the support we received. It was so fun to have our families join us for this special occasion.



Travis and Sienna flew in from Colorado for the occasion - what a treat. Thanks to Travis for all these great pictures.

Willey Cousins

It is a rare occasion for all of my siblings to be together - we took advantage of the opportunity and had 3 1/2 fun filled days together! Best of all was being with each other and catching up on each other's lives. It was fun to see my nieces and nephews who are growing up.....and I mean up - look at Hayden my 15 year old nephew. He is the tall one in the back in our family picture. We had 33 people together. Here we are altogether.....

Kaden's Birthday Celebration

LOADS OF FUN


Another celebration.....we had LOADS of fun!! We had very low key birthday since we had family coming into town the next day. This was my favorite cake yet! Just made brownies and dumped them in the back of the dump truck and drizzled it with chocolate frosting!!

Kaden got this bike for Christmas....it never got put together....so we put it together for his birthday. Mia informed us that wasn't fair to give it to him again. We tried to explain that we didn't give the bike to him, we have the putting together of the bike to him!!

Kaden's morning surprise.....Kenna helped me decorate Kaden's window. She drew all the trucks and the beep, beep, beep.

What joy this little boy brings to our family. I wish I could keep him this way for a little longer (minus the mischief he gets into jk). He is a very active little boy. At 2 he loves to get into anything and everything he is not suppose to...most common being the laundry detergent, the game closet, the pantry, mommies nightstand drawer, the toothpasate drawer, the vitamin cupboard, the kitchen window bay...and...and. Never a dull moment around here. He definately knows what he wants in life. He calls the end bar stool - his spot (my pot). If anyone sits there he pushes them out and says my pot, my pot. My favorite word of his is pot pie (aka up high). His favorite books to read are Where's Spot and Good Night, Gorilla. He loves the keys on each page. Each time we turn the page he say, OUT, as the Gorilla lets each animal out of their cage. Kaden is definately a daddy's boy! He does everything his dad does and follows him around like a little puppy. What a precious little boy. We are blessed to have him in our family!

Mckenna's Baptism

Turning 2!

We thought this would be the perfect theme for Kaden's 2nd Birthday. DUMP EVERYTHING.....sums up his life right now. That would explain why we have child proof locks on all the doors and closets (never had to buy them with our girls). Kaden's latest...while I was showering he pushed a kitchen chair into the laundry room and got inside the washing machine! Never a dull moment around here.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIA

Our little Princess is 5!! What a joy she is to our family! She is so full of life and helps me loosen up and enjoy the moment. She loves to have a good time. She is always putting on lip gloss and saying "Don't I look cute Mom". Every store we go in she wants to try on shoes. She always says "Mom these are so darling." Her favorite pastimes are playing Polly Pockets and riding her bike. She loves to make up songs and dance around to music. She's all about keeping Matt & I on our toes about being "fair." She loves to snuggle and give big hugs. She loves preschool most days. She has a very difficult time sitting still (wiggle worm as we like to call it). She defiantly keep things lively around the Willey House. We are blessed to have her in our family. Here are a few highlights of her celebrations!

The Birthday Cake!!

Thanks to Maria and Katy for helping me with this.
Mia loved it.

Mia had great fun planning her parties. She knew exactly what she wanted and didn't want. She was particularly excited to decorate her cake. When Aunt Maria came over to help us she told Abby that she wanted to help decorate her cake and not play. She said she had been waiting all day to do it. It is fun to see her excitement. She asked a million times when it was time for the party. Matt finally set the timer as a count down. We had a fun couple of days celebrating.....Now it's time to plan the next birthday party.....Kaden's turning 2!
