HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLEY OOP!
Over the weekend we celebrated Alley Oops 14th birthday. With every birthday celebration I find myself forced to look at the fact that these grandchildren are growing in leaps and bounds. At the same time I find myself asking where are the years going? Oops theme for her party was a fiesta, complete with a Pinata, which worked for me, I love Mexican food. Melody made the cake and 'Chef-Boy-Ar-Chris' chipped in and added his touch to the main meal. We discovered that a Pinata can serve two purposes, Not only as a party game filled with lots of goodies, but also as a party hat for a goofy Dad and little brother.
This was the last picture of our B.R.A.T.s taken three years ago.B.ritt~ R.iley~A.lley oop~T.bear

As a final note, I just read Connie's newest post. The good news is that her mother is home, but in a fragile state. Please drop by 'Over Good Ground' and offer Connie some words of encouragement and hope.Wishing you a blessed day.

What a super day!! Beautiful children. I know what you mean about them growing, I am now a Great Grandma. Who, me????
Happy Birthday to Alley. Mexican food sounds good. I have had any of that in a long time. You're making me hungry.
Happy Birthday to your granddaughter:-) Sounds like she had a fun celebration and I love the idea of a Mexican themed party, complete with pinata!! The years certainly do seem to be flying by...it seems the older I get, the fast they go by! xoxo
Do you alwats photograph them in B.R.A.T. order? Love it. They are so cute.
Jo,
With every grandchild's birthday, I wonder - why is time speeding by faster and faster! I love your BRATs and BRATS photos! There they go - another set of grandchildren growing faster than our eyes can track. Your grandchildren are beautiful. Looks like a wonderful party!
hugs,
Tina
