Ryan's Birthday Party

We had a fun birthday BBQ/family get-together yesterday for Ryan's birthday. It also happened to be my due date and everyone kept telling me if I planned something for that day, then she would inevitably come and we'd have to reschedule. Well, it didn't work because I'm still pregnant. But we did have a really fun birthday BBQ. (We won't say how old he is because he gets incredibly depressed about it. In fact, the whole time if anyone said happy birthday to him he said, "it's not my birthday yet!" He is still in the denial stage of grieving).
Anyway, we had Lynne, Dave, Owen, Lila, Kelli, Brian, Cadence, Cameron, my Mom, Nate, Brooke, Gavin, Jackson, Paige, Jason, and my friend Rachael and Brian over. It was quite a big group for our tiny apartment but thankfully, the sun decided to come out and we were able to play and eat outside. It was really fun. Ryan grilled steaks and burgers to perfection and we just hung out and had a good time.
When it came time to have cake and ice cream, Brian told Cadence she could have cake once the candles came out of the cake. So we put the candles in the cake and put them in front of Ryan to start lighting and she goes up to Ryan and asks if she can sit on his lap. We sang a very out of tune Happy Birthday and then before we were even done, Cadence starts to blow those candles out! I think she has had a lot of practice on this because she took out more than half of those candles on there! It was totally hilarious. After they were all blown out she turns to me and says, "Can we take the candles out now?" haha! That little girl cracks me up! Anyway, we had a fun time and thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with us!

 Ryan finally got to blow out like 3 of his own candles. 

Ryan and I. This is my 40 week pregnant picture. Enjoy it because I'm really hoping it's the last pregnant picture I will be taking. (And if you are wondering, I don't wear my own clothes anymore, that shirt is actually Ryan's... It's just more comfy that way!)
