Happy Birthday Sister!

Last weekend Cliff and I traveled to Arlington for my sister, Leigh's, surprise birthday party. It was such a great time with family. We arrived late Thursday night in time to welcome Mimi and Bipaw who arrived about an hour after us from New Mexico. Aunt Jenny and her kids were also there Friday.

Friday we got to hang out with family and spend some time with Lerin and Robbyn who are just adorable! Then Friday night we went to the party. Leigh was with us all day and would not leave Mom and Dad's house. The plan was for her to leave, go get ready to go out alone with Bubba. So she wasn't really in that huge of a hurry since it was only like 4:30. When she left around five we rushed to get everything ready and get to the barn where the party was held.

Leigh arrived and was soooo very surprised to see everyone there. It was so neat to celebrate her birthday with friends and family. I love my sister!

Then Saturday I got to see more family at my cousin Brittnie's baby shower. She looks so beautiful! I wish I could be in town to see the baby when she is born. She is naming her baby Peyton Ann. So cute!

I didn't take too many pictures over the weekend which now I'm disappointed about, but I was just enjoying the short time I had in Arlington being with family instead of taking pictures of them!

Here are a few:

Lerin and Robbyn getting ready for their Momma's party. Lerin was excited when she learned why things were so crazy around the house after Leigh left. The frezny was almost too much for her to take.

Leigh and Bubba right as they arrived. Leigh teared up from all of the friends and family there.

Two of my beautiful cousins, Meagan and Caitlin.

The Aquino's had this awesome swing rigged up around a horse walking contraption. This is three year old Cybil, the youngest Rampy.

Calvin swinging away. He's such a happy kid! And getting so tall!

Our attempt at a cute picture. Ha!

Lerin and Cybil love playing together.

Isn't this adorable?? Robbyn is double fisting her burrito.

We really enjoyed being with our girls.


Leigh opening up her gifts with lots of 'help.'

There were no restrooms at the barn so Mom in all of her motherly wisdom brought the potty chair for the little girls. I crack up just seeing this picture. These girls had to go to the bathroom at least 10 times throughout the night. They were chugging capri sun like nobody's business. Cybil couldn't pose for a picture because she was telling Mom this very serious story about Princess Blabla. We found out later that this is her pretend character.
