Birthdays, Digging Potatoes and Chickens











































Sorry I haven't posted lately, but we have been a traveling. We finally made it to LA, after a weekend here with my parents and nieces celebrating Aidan's birthday (party #2). Aidan headed back with my family and enjoyed a week of spoiling from his g-parents without having to share them with his sisters. Needless to say he didn't want to call home and was not to pleased to see me, Adam and the girls show up at my parents house ruining his plans of never coming home.

While at my parents Aidan took up the job of feeding the chickens and collecting eggs, which he took very seriously, even foregoing a sleepover at his cousins house in order to be at maw-maw and paw-paw's house to take care of the chickens. In fact he had a plan to bring at least one home with us, that is of course if he would indeed agree to come back home with us. I think it was only the excitement of getting to fly in an airplane again that lead him to willingly come home!
Of course paw paw also took him fishing on old paw paw's boat and he now has aspirations of opening a fish restaurant, of course he has jobs for us all, Adam is to catch the fish, I am to cook it and he of course gets to drive the boat.

We also got to spend a few days with Adam's parents and to see some of our friends in Bossier City. We miss you Fenner's!
The week with my family ended with another bday party for Aidan (party # 3), Kara, and my nieces Hailee and Emma. It was so great to see everyone, especially family we haven't seen in a few years.
