We were so very happy that we were able to travel down to Louisiana over the weekend to celebrate Hunter turning 9 and Bralyn turning 2. It was such a great birthday party and a very hot day for this pregnant lady. It was so good to see most all of the family and visit and have a good time. They all cannot wait for Finley to get here so that they can spoil him also. Since we were so close, after the party we took a little ride on over to the Duck Commander Headquarters. We love this show and it was fun to see where all the funnies happen for the Robertson crew. Grace was worn out by this time but we still made the most of it.
Hunter and Bralyn went with a camo themed birthday party, and these cakes turned out perfect from Ambrosia Bakery in Hot Springs. They do such a good job on their cakes.
Bralyn was not so sure about blowing out the candles but she soon figured out how much she liked dipping the candle in the cake and then licking it off the candle. Hunter wanted his cake to be green on the inside, so whatever Hunter wants, Hunter gets. It sure was good too.
Rick was sporting his HEY JACK shirt and it fit right in with the Duck Dynasty crew.
Grace and Ryan could not help themselves, they had to have a picture with the Robertson Family. I am so glad Grace is smiling so pretty in this picture. She was so tired from all the birthday activities and swimming.
Mom and I sitting on the loading dock at Duck Commander. Every time I think of the loading dock I think of two different episodes. The one time when they decided to flood the dock and put ducks in there and the other time was when the AC went out and they put a tarp in the back of the truck and filled it up with water to make a pool. We love our redneck ways.

I could not resist buying Finley his first Duck Dynasty outfit. One of Uncle Si's best quotes, however there are so many. "Drink a little tea, mow a little grass. Hey, work hard, nap hard. That what I always say, Jack."
Grace's eyes are closed, so this was the best we could do. The sun was so bright and poor baby was so tired, but we had to get a picture in front of the Duck Dynasty bus.
Grace sure does love soaking up the sun. She is a little afraid of the water still, but she will float in her raft all day.
Ryan's birthday weekend is also this weekend and my mom and Rick got him this umbrella full of $2 bills. Grace says it's raining money.
Look at Daddy. He didn't want to get in the water but he sat by the water all day with Gracie Goo.
We can always count on Mamaw to make sure everyone is protected from the sun. I remember her coating us down our whole childhood. We just wanted to get in the water as fast as we could and mom would be there loading us down with sunscreen.
The three amigos. Grace loves her Papaw Rick.

Look at the birthday duo! They are ready for some presents.
This is what Aunt Jamie, Uncle Ryan, Grace and Finley got Bralyn and Hunter for their birthday.
