we had kaden and gavin's birthday party last week! it was a lot of fun, and well worth all the hard work i put into it. you know me, i love throwing parties...especially when it comes to throwing them for my family members. this post has taken me a while to get up! there is A TON of pictures. i couldn't choose my favorites, so i posted a bunch. i had an awesome photographer take most of these {http://www.seenboxphotography.blogspot.com/}. lyndsey, thanks so much!
