Birthday Girl

Just over 2 weeks ago we invited 2 of our favorite friends over for an afternoon of fun, dinner and cupcakes. My friend Sally had a very unexpected death in her family so I offered to keep her kids for the afternoon. I wanted her to be able to spend time with her family remembering the family member they had lost. Betsy birthday had also been during that same week and this gave Ruth Ann a chance to celebrate with one of her favorite friends. Arch picked up Chick-fil-a...because a birthday party isn't complete without Chick-fil-a at our house...then we played and finished up with fresh cupcakes. Somewhere in between I got a few pictures of these sweet children...

Jay and Betsy will be welcoming a sibling later this summer...I love this picture because I can see Jay helping Baby Brown #3 always face the camera...



Too bad Jay wasn't sitting next to Ruth Ann...she's usually the one NEVER looking at the camera.

I did manage to get her attention once...



And this is why I'll never have 4 children...can you imagine trying to get a picture of all of them...together...looking at the camera???

This last is the best picture of sweet Betsy...the birthday girl...and since it was her day it's only fair to post this picture too...



If you don't know Betsy-Boo...you're missing out. This girl is equal parts sweet and sassy and we always love having her over to our house to play. Thanks for spending the afternoon with us...Ruth Ann is lucky to have a sweet friend like you!
