Happy Birthday Landen!

As I mentioned in a precious post, I recently had a chance to catch up w/some old high school friends at the Batman birthday party. Well, here is Wendy's precious little boy, Landen.


He was turning 4 and invited us to his birthday party at Pump it Up in Frisco and what a fun time we had. Kase had a special friend spend the night the night before so he told me he was "too busy" to go to the party so it was just Keller and I. It was his first birthday party to go to w/out big brother so it was a special time for both of us. He had an absolute blast playing and once again, I had a chance to catch up w/some more old friends. In fact, one of the girls, Shannon, was a friend I hadn't seen {except for 5 minutes at my 10 yr. HS reunion} in 17 years. She and I were the best of friends during our early teenage years but her dad is a pastor and started a new church in Plano so the family eventually relocated. We saw each other periodically but once high school started, our visits were few and far between. She is still just as sweet and endearing as she was many years ago so I had a great time visiting w/her. I enjoyed it so much that I didn't even realize Keller had wondered into another room. Guess he wanted to try out every bounce house in the place. Thanks to whoever the man was that brought him back to me!

Now for some pics of my wondering man, man on the loose or just plain ol' wild man!

Keller with his eye on a piece of cake that's coming down the table towards him!

Group shot, minus Keller who wasn't quite ready to stop for a picture. Don't you love how Landen's covering his ears? I wanted to do the same thing myself!

Keller telling me to go away with the camera!

Look at this boy climb! I just knew he was going to need a boost but he did it all by himself...
and he was so proud!

Weeeeeeee!!!

The party is over!

As you can tell, Keller loved the party and wasn't quite ready to go. Poor baby was sacked out before I made it back to the Tollway. Thanks Wendy for inviting us; we had a great time and are excited about seeing ya'll next weekend!
