Make-a-Wish Party

We had a great time this weekend. Family, friends, and lots of fun! The Make-a-Wish organization wanted to give Caed a party/send-off for his upcoming Disney trip. He decided to have it at the Wiggly Play Center. Most of our family were able to fly/drive in for the party and sure helped to make it extra-special for us. Caed's hot, red-face (as seen in all the pictures) gives you a good indication of how much he enjoyed it!

My parents took Caleb back to Lubbock with them today. He will stay with them the entire time we are gone. We sure miss him and it seems very strange around our house without those big blue eyes. However, we know the trip will be easier (and more enjoyable for Caed) without him. (even though it makes us sad not being able to take him too) I keep telling the kids maybe one day when Caleb gets bigger, we can go back.

Only 4 more days until the "big day"......................... Strep is going around Kindergarten right now, so please pray we can all stay well this week!



pictures like this help reassure me we are making the right decision by leaving our 18 mo. old home. ha!

So glad you have the pictures of the party. It was so good to see all the kiddo's having such a fun time together. The Disney trip will be so nice for your family and I know Caleb will have a much better time with his nana.
Have a great trip.
