Happy Birthday Aidan! 6 years old today!

 First up, last weekend we had visitors!  Lauren, Reid and Cameron came to visit.  We went to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch.  It was a fun visit!
 We had some very excited boys about their apples!
 Since Uncle Justin was gone fishing, Dan had to help Reid reach the really high apples.  That's where the best ones are!
 Liam got his turn getting the good ones too.
 We got so many apples we couldn't even fit Aidan in the wagon and it was hard to stop eating.  Reid even ate the core of his!
 Luckily we could fit all three boys in the tub and had some fun splashing and getting crazy hair.
 Today is Aidan's 6th birthday!  He picked out this super cool spiderman cake and we got a quick boys picture before the party started.  Yep they were really excited.
 Aidan had his first big friends birthday party.  14 kids came (a couple little sisters too) and they all had so much fun.  I didn't realize what a process it would be to get everyone pizza, then a drink.  They were good kids though and Aidan had so much fun!
 We even had to use the little table for the small kids cause we ran out of room.  They had fun socializing themselves as well.
One big group shot with the cake.  Smiling birthday boy and all his friends singing happy birthday!  What a fun day and what a proud little 6 year old we have!

Sorry about the long break...We've been busy and Liam is 3!!!

 Lots has been going on.  First big thing was new cousin Cameron was born to Aunt Lauren and Uncle Justin.  Liam was really proud of being able to try to feed him his bottle.
 Little Cameron is pretty cute and suprised us with lots of dark hair.
 Liam and Cameron's big brother Reid have been having a lot of fun this summer at the farm.  Boy what two 2 year olds can get into!
 Grandpa's sandbox is getting more use this summer.  Lots of digging and building which is so fun for all these little boys.
 Liam was being silly with Cameron-and I can't believe how much bigger Liam looks!
 Mugsy also wanted to cuddle with Cameron and he didn't mind one bit!
 Aidan has taken a lot of turns holding that new little boy, but he will hand him back as soon as Cameron's crying.
 We took a trip to the sandhill one day to get a little more sand for Grandpa's sandbox.  It was fun for the boys to climb.
 We got to go to Matt and Britta's pool one day.  Aidan loves the big chair and his water gun.  Goggles were just in case!
 Here's all the older Thomforde Grandson's celebrating Reid's 2nd birthday.
 4th of July at the Huneke's in the little pool.  What a good guy uncle Justin is to play with the kids!
 Second new baby of the summer-Matt and Britta's new daughter Graysen.  She is a cutie too and has tons of dark hair.  A little girl on the Thomforde side, finally!
 Aidan and Liam got some more time with this little girl too.  They are getting great at holding little babies.
 Liam prefers not to wear clothes.  Which he showed everyone at the Huneke party and spent some time going down the slide naked.  Not a shy boy here.
 Last week we went to Jellystone with the whole Huneke family.  All my boys sure love the golf carts we get to drive around.
 Dan, Aidan and Liam built a lot of castles with moats, which they then break to let the boats float into the lake.
 I had to get in one picture.  With camera shy Liam
 The boys love Boo Boo.
 Liam's first mini golf game.  Not great at waiting for the ball to stop, and not great at actually hitting the ball, but he had fun.
 Aidan showing us how it's done.  If golf were a timed sport, he'd win.  Not one to wait for the ball to stop there either.
 Grandma Ellen with the crazy boys.
 We tried for a family picture with Cindy Bear.  I was looking!
 Dan's 33rd birthday was during Jellystone week too so we got his favorite-DQ ice cream cake. 
 The boys both loved the water balloons.  Liam will throw them quicker than we can fill them.
 One of the boy's best castles and moats, complete with Star Wars guys protecting it.
 Grandma and Grandpa Thomforde came for a day as well and got their first ride on the golf cart.
 Aidan being a zombie and Grandma being a person.
 Aidan realized how much fun the water slide is.  He's getting so much better swimming.
 Pretty proud!
 Aidan also made a water balloon face and wanted to show it off.  He's pretty creative.
 Here's the whole Huneke clan.  We had a really fun weekend and love this new tradition.
 Another try at a family picture.  Pretty typical.
 Liam was so excited to see the real Boo Boo and couldn't wait to give him a hug.
 Sleepy Aidan with sleepy Boo Boo.
 Sleepy Liam with Sleepy Boo Boo.
 Sitting with Boo Boo and smiling so cute!
 One more before we leave with Cindy and my crazy boys.
 Now for the big birthday-Liam is 3 and he loves the new castle we got for him!  Aidan and he have been playing so well this weekend!
 The cake Aidan and I made with Liam's requested colors-yellow and red.  Happy boys.
 Dancing like on Madagascar 3-goofballs!
Birthday boy dancing with no pants.  Perfectly happy!
