Our Little Guy is Four!

Abraham had his birthday party last Saturday, and what a party it was! He had sixteen of his "closest friends" there and these kids knew how to party. We'd begun the planning two weeks prior, when we went around delivering his invitations to his friends. William and I thought we'd do the "simple"-type party at home, but of course, there was nothing simple about it :) We stayed up late the night before converting our garage into party central, making cupcakes, and preparing all the goodie bags. We had all kinds of themes going---cars balloons and table cloths, Thomas cake, and football plates, cups, and party hats. The kids ran wild having fun and eating pizza, cake, and lots of other snacks. It was tiring for us but he certainly had fun. Now we're getting ready to do it all again next week for Annabelle, who will be turning three. Stay tuned for updates on that! Happy Birthday, Abraham!

    He's so handsome! It's so great to see pictures. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to believe he's really 4 years old.

    That looks like a great party, and I can only imagine the chaos. I was glad that we only had enough space for 6 kids in our apartment...whew! Well done. Hope Annabelle's has gone well too. And Abraham looks like such a big independent boy.What an age...4 yrs old!
