H's Barnyard Bash!

We celebrated Mr. H's birthday yesterday with a Barnyard Bash.

I'm going to break this up into 2 post - one with the fun stuff, and one with the details. 

Just in case you want to know all of that stuff....

Wild Man started his party with some serious jumping in his new Bounce House.

Love that hair.

There were long lost sorority sisters with their beautiful girls...

Bashful Baby Will... 

Sweet sorority sisters/lifelong friends...

Princess-in-Training aka Mary-Miller

Serious "Dad" conversations...

Bouncy House fun...

Major grandparent time...

Even more bouncy house bonding...

New baby outings...

Potential future romances... 

Mandatory family birthday poses...

Cake and candle blowing...

Followed by cake eating...

And attempts to eat plastic barnyard toys...

And then the real fun began...

(As you can tell by my facial expression.)

Goats who had no concept of personal space/boundaries...

Feeding of ducks...

Feeding of donkeys...

Some of the animals really liked MiMi.... and tore the bag right out of her hands!

MM was cautious...

(Along with Mommy Baker)

Colton was ready to go, as he's an old pro at the Petting Zoo!

The Shepherd's were having fun, regardless of what Will is expressing in this picture...

DeeDee and Uncle Mitchell were having fun...

... and so was GiGi!

The Meriwether's took a break to smile...

And PawPaw put the sassy horse straight so kiddo's could pet him.

Sweet Baby Bess was soaking up the sun with Mommy,

while Daddy Dennis thought about kidnapping the baby goat.

Mommy Baker and MM lookin' cute!

Sweet Lindley posing for the camera...

With Birthday Boy following suit...

Daddy Pelham did some horse whispering...

While Aunt Anna and Uncle Whit relaxed in the shade...

(and planned Princess birthday parties for Baby Elizabeth that will not include barnyard animals...)

Me and the Birthday Boy!

Daddy and his birthday boy, looking cool in their matching shades.

Thank you to all our family and friends who celebrated our little buddy's birthday!  We are so blessed to have you in his life!

Special thanks to our family who helped us with the party set-up and clean-up.
