Here we go again . . .

Justin and Dayna had us over for Caycee's birthday. All the grandparents and Justin's sibs. Dayna's sibs are: one, out of town; another, out of state; a third, out of the country.

The party girl

Caycee's in Grandma Nettie's arms as we sing and she blows out the candle. She was so proud of herself and LOVED everyone singing to her.

Cooper is waiting patiently for his cake. Looks like his mouth is watering.

And, while we were there, we found out that Adam, who is in the Army Reserves, is being activated and will be deployed. It's like knowing your children are going to drive. You know it's going to happen but watching them drive away is so hard. We knew he could be deployed but it's still a kick in the gut when you get the news.
