Family birthday parties!!




WOW, what a busy weekend we had!!! Mark had to take the day of on Friday and go pick up Wyatt at 5am, he had surgery the night before on his wrist; had to get a couple pins put in it, broken pretty badly, poor thing...so Mark stayed home with him, and the girls and I went to my Uncle Ray's for his birthday party!! I made a chocolate cake with chocolate butter cream, and covered it in white fondant, and put a music note and some stars on it. It was a pretty small cake, a seven inch pan, so I also made a banana-nut bread to take along. I didn't get one picture of the little girls, they wouldn't get out of the pool long enough for that, but I managed to get a few of the BAND!! My brother, Jason was on the drums, my Dad is on the bass, Semie was playing lead, and we took turns playing and singing. Madi sang a couple with me, and ALL of the little kids gathered around us, and they knew every word to the songs we did, it was SO SWEET!!! We left there, and made a mad dash to Guitar Center, and we finally got Madi her very own guitar...HAD TO- or else I was never gonna get to play mine again!! I am so proud of her, she has learned how to play so well already, and isn't afraid to play and sing in front of strangers either...she took her guitar to a party Saturday night, and she ended up playing and singing about six songs for a whole bunch of people she didn't' even know, and she was so excited!! If she wasn't hooked before, she is NOW!! Then Sunday, was my Mark's birthday, and we just hung out and played outside; washers, guitars, Clay came over to hang out awhile. We had a very relaxing afternoon. We are planning a 'grown-up' party this coming Saturday, in Ft. Worth. Getting busier by the day with the cakes...VERY EXCITED about that!!! My sweet sister-in-law designed a logo for us, and it is on this blog if you didn't notice!!! THANK YOU SHELLY!!!
