We have been celebrating birthdays since mine on June 26th. July 2nd Gary (Steve's dad), 13th Karen (Gary's girlfriend), and 15th my mom's. On July 14th we were invited to Danielle's party. She is Steve's step-brothers daughter. I believe her birthday is actually the 12th. So we drove down to Conyers on Saturday and it takes about 1 hr 15 min to drive to their place from ours. What a drive!!! So we arrived for the party and here you can see the birthday girl already needing a nap. Her mom said that she snuck into the icing while she was making her cake and you know what happens when you mix sugar and kids.....NO SLEEP!! She did great during the party even though she was sleepy. She looked so cute in her pink cowgirl boots.
After a while the party moved outdoors and here are my boys giving the swingset a try. Luke is in a climbing phase so anything he can climb on he is ready.
Here is Grandpa Phil (Steve's step-dad) smiling with Alex. She would not look at the camera because all the kids were playing around us.
If you did not guess by Danielle in her boots this was a cowboy party. Danielle's mom rented two horses to come out to the party for the kids to ride on. It took a while for most kids to warm up to the idea, but after some convincing Kade decided he was going to ride. Here he is with Grandma (Steve's mom) after making a lap around the yard.
Phil thought that maybe Alex would like to check it out, but right after I took this picture she started crying. Notice the girl on the horse. She jumped right on when they brought them to the yard. She was screaming at her mom to buy her horse. It was so cute.
Here is Steve's step-sister Kathy with the birthday girl.
So Alex decided to drive the Barbie jeep to pick up cute boys and she picks up her own brother!!. Just kidding she is actually to small but it keep her entertained so I could eat lunch.
So after Luke almost knocks Alex out of the Jeep he takes over the drivers seat and another boy at the party decided he would jump in the action.
We'll after so many birthdays I think we have a break until August then it will be Melanie's and Steve's mom, and then following close behind will be Luke's second birthday on September 20th.
Happy Birthday to everyone!!!!

Great pictures. I never got a pony at one of my birthday parties! I'm jealous! Alex will be driving before you know it.
There is only one month out of the entire year that we don't have a family birthday or some other sort of celebration and that is March! I feel your pain David's b-day is September 10th...he and Luke are only 10 days apart!
Melanie, my birthday is in August too...what day is yours?
Those pics are awesome! Looks like the kids all had a great time.
That is certainly a ton of bdays all at once! Our family is like that in December!
WOW! Danielle has grown a ton since I saw her the last time! I'm jealous, what girl doesn't want a pony or two at her birthday party?!?!?! Sounds like you guys had a great time!!!
