There is nothing like a tailgate party for your Birthday.  Ellie and Daimon are looking for the Devaney's to arrive so the party can begin.  Pizza, Orange Crush, and Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Cake...that's a Party Brown Style!

What a Night...Thanks Polar Ice!  Happy Birthday Ellie "We Love You!"

3rd Place Baby...Pinewood Derby Time!

Let me just start by saying that I am not sure who the Pinewood Derby is more for "Fathers or Sons".  I never had a car that won a race, and I can still remember how bad that felt as a kid.  So my goal every year for Daimon is not to have him win the whole thing.  It's to have him win at least one race...

This year Daimon decided to paint his car red.  So the name "Hot Rod" seemed to fit the bill.  Daimon thought the flames were cool.

To celebrate the family January/February birthdays (Colten, Kelly, Grammy, Teri, Becky, Ellie) we did a croquet themed party. Everyone had to wear their best croquet duds. We grilled burgers on the barbie and played a mean game of croquet, it brought out everyone's competitive spirit! It was so fun to see everyone's outfits! This is a family who definitely knows how to have fun together...... "a family that plays together stays together!"

Weekend Surprise!!

DSCN0033

Much to our delight, our cousin Tara and her new hubby Scott made a last minute road trip to Arizona.  They are such a fun couple and it was great getting to know Scott better.  His amazing homemade salsa was an added bonus.  The weekend was spent introducing Scott to all the "Foodie" musts in the valley.  You could call it an eating marathon!  Tara shared her talent and took some amazing family photos for us. Thanks Tara and Scott for spending Valentines with us, we love you!
