July Birthday Party!

Tonight we celebrated July birthdays with our families. The guests of honor were Cade (July 16), Willem (July 29), cousin Daniel (July 21) and me (July 26). I also thought of my mom whose birthday is also in July on the 25th :). I love our family parties as they are just relaxed and fun and a little crazy with all the kids. We were lucky to have four Loftsgard cousins from Nicaragua with us to help celebrate! It was nice to just sit and talk with everyone for a few hours. Happy happy birthday to my sweet and crazy boys and their big cousin!

The birthday boys: Daniel (19), Cade (13), Willem (9)!

So many cousins! Love it!

I tried to get a shot with the birthday boys and this is what we got :)

Nev insisted on being in the picture and Willem was just goofy!

So, I thought, how about we just get a family picture then (even though Elle was trying on a Scandinavia costume for Grandma!)....

And, still this is all we got! That's just how it goes sometimes!


Also wanted to include a picture of Willem's friends party at Putters. Will invited his soccer team and the boys played tons of games, ate pizza, cake and played in the play area...

Haha, those family pics are classic! Sometimes the not-so-perfect are just more meaningful than the more-perfect :) Haha, all those silly faces by Will are the best! That's just so boy and age appropriate. Happy Birthday to all of you!!
