1st party with friends


Connor requested to go to the Movies this year for his birthday.  The only problem was the movie he has been anxiously awaiting to see - did not come out until the week following his birthday - so, we waiting and had his first ever Birthday Party with friends a week late. 
He was able to invite his cousins, friends from school, and some pretty awesome grandparents along too.  We saw Dolphin Tale 2 then celebrated in the party room with presents & cookies!!!

Thank you Van, Ethan, Jacob, Joey, Dylan & Tyler for making his birthday party so much fun!!










 I hope you had a wonderful birthday party Connor!!

Michigan State University

Aunt Jen, Uncle Tom, Ga April, Mommy, Daddy and Connor went to the home opener football game for Michigan State.  Aunt Jen & Uncle Tom were in town for our annual pig roast and wanted to go to a game while they were in town, so we went along.  Connor enjoyed seeing a college campus (besides UT).  I think he enjoyed watching all the students as we drove closer and closer (especially the sorority girls).
 

We tailgated! Played some football! Got Connor some MSU gear! Watched the drum line..


 
Took a selfie & played on some HUGE trees!
 
 


 
 
 Connor loved watching the game too.
 And he about ate his way thru that stadium!!
 


Love this kid!  And enjoyed a fun evening with him!
