Ry's 7th Birthday!

7 years ago we really didn't know what we were getting in to! This little guy screamed and screamed and screamed. But, for some reason Aaron just loved this little guy like no other daddy could! I remember one day Aaron came home from work and he wasn't screaming. He asked, "what is wrong with Ryan?" Seriously, he thought something was wrong because he WASN'T crying! 
I have now just realized that the first day I ever stayed home and didn't go anywhere ALL day was after I had Ryan and realized he always cried! It was around the same time when Aaron once again came home from work and I told him I didn't go ANYWHERE all day. He didn't believe me!
Our Ry is now just the best little guy! Always willing to help, has a little OCD when it comes to organizing and is just a great big brother to his little sister especially. He often asks me, "Where is the littlest?" He is just so cute and we are so happy we have our little Ry in our family!
We headed up North the day before Ry's birthday because Taylor was receiving the Melchizedek priesthood the day after his birthday. We wanted Ry to have a good day and how else to do it than by hanging out with the Smith's?
Playing some cards before breakfast.
Grandma Smith is where the tradition of the "Big Birthday Breakfast" started for this family. 
Love it when Grandma and Grandpa do it:)
Ry with his decorations. 
I was proud of these!! I like it!

Birthday "R"
There wasn't much snow but enough!
Silly, Cute Boys!
I can't believe how big my boys are really getting.
I just love them so so much!
We decided to go down to "Boondocks" to have a little fun.
We first did some miniature bowling. 
The kids had so much fun!

Next year she can join in on the fun
Such a cute face!
Brayd was the winner and this is what he did when he found out!
SO CUTE!!
Laser Tag was the next game the kids did. They seemed to have a good time!
We then went to the mall to get some lunch and to Smith and Edward's to pick out treats. 
It was then dinner time and we just got Little Caesars pizza and breadsticks then went back to grandma's to eat it.
Lyla came to visit that night and we always have to get pictures of them together because they are just too cute. They kept touching each other and were just talking away! 
It was so funny. There were about 14 people just standing around watching them. You would have thought they were the first grandchildren, not 12 and 13!
Cute little girls!
Ry picked out what kind of cake he wanted and we made it for him. Ashley decorated it and it was just too cute! Reece's and butterfinger for the topping on a white cake! 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN!!
You make us so happy!
