Happy Birthday Carter!

Our friends Mindy and Chris's son, Carter, turned 3 last week, so I took the kids to Mac for a carnival birthday celebration. Caden started out shy and quiet--he always has to take everything in first, but he warmed up and tried out all the games, played with Carter's fun toys, and ate some yummy birthday cake. I feel so blessed to have them close by so our kids can see each other and play together. On the way to Mac, I told Caden that we were going to Carter's party and that Carter was turning 3.
Caden said, "Carter turn 3 (pause)--already?"
--that made me laugh--too funny!
Caden is always excited to see Carter and Brynn and Asher are just too cute!

The duck pond was Caden's favorite--Mindy had no idea the kids would have more fun throwing and splashing the ducks in the pool instead of just looking for the duck with the X on it.

Brynn is staying warm and cozy with Mindy's sister Lindsay.
