Owen's 5th Birthday

Owen turned 5 while we were in Iowa. We had a little soccer themed party for the family. It's been awhile since we've celebrated one of the boys birthday with our Iowa family. It was fun to get together!

I was wanting to get a picture of Owen in his soccer shirt, but of course he wouldn't hold still.

This is a really funny story....there was a mylar balloon tied to the end of the banister. Brady was playing with it and it came off the string. My parents have really tall ceilings, so obviously we couldn't reach it. Rob tried throwing stuff at it to knock it to the top of the stairs. That didn't work so my dad went and got the leaf blower. We all laughed so hard we were crying. Rob was at the top of the stairs to capture the balloon. Funny, funny, funny!! Oh, and they had to get it down so it wouldn't set off their alarm system while they were skeeping or away. :)

Brooklyn and Carson "playing". Brooklyn is about 5 weeks older than Carson.
