Today I did an amazing thing. I took the time to actually stick batteries in my camera! Oh sadness, there at least a thousand things I
should have taken pictures of last month... AKA Tom and Zach's birthday, Kaden's 50 mile bike ride for Scouts, Kym and Adam's wedding, a trip to Rexburg that included "Bear World", the beautiful changing fall leaves--oh yeah, and of course Halloween.
Sigh, at least I can rely on Super Grandad for pictures of most of those events because he is smart and actually keeps his camera functioning. SO do you want to know what
finally drove me to put the batteries in?????
Take a look at this

What does a birthday party with 13 kids spell??? You got it.... C R A Z .... No, I mean
F U N !!! It was Tanner's 8th birthday and he just wanted a "few" friends to come over and play. They were actually all really well-behaved boys and perfect little gentlemen to the adorable two cutie pies from across the street that came over to see what all the commotion was about (One of them is disguised in a power ranger costume. That's my kind of girl).
So, what do big brothers do during these kinds of parties?
Yeah, survival of the fittest in this family.

Check out Ryan peeking in a present (He got caught by the camera). It is so hard to convice a 3 year old that none of the presents are for him. All those neat toys!

Look at cutie pie with the blonde hair hanging out in the back. Someday these boys will have a hard time looking at presents over a beauty like this...

Happy Happy Birthday, Tanner Dear. Eight is great and
SO ARE YOU!
