Ronan's Party

Ronan wearing his special birthday crown from cousin Tyler. (:

On July 31st we had all of the family over to celebrate Ronan's 6th Birthday with a Star Wars/Slip 'n Slide Party!  Josh had the idea to get carpet remnants and pads to put under the plastic so that we could do the slip 'n slide down our driveway since we were limited on grass space.  It turned out great!

Super Ronan!

  The younger kids liked playing in the "pool" at the end of the slip 'n slide:

Ronan & Josh also thought it would be fun to shoot water balloons out of the air cannon-- (the one that Josh built a few months ago). (:

After the water games we gathered in the backyard for a BBQ

The Cute Novemberists: Griffin, Cohen, Macey, Ethan, & Finley ( Baby Tate will soon be joining their "club"!)

The kids had fun playing with the sweet neighborhood kitten that had been hanging out at our house.

Josh had recently been working on renovating our backyard, so it was neat to see how it felt with a large group of people.  He added benches to the deck, and extended the deck to another sitting area where there will eventually be a waterfall.

Grandpa, Grammie, Memaw, Papa, Uncle Aaron, Aunt Becca, Great Grandpa & Grammie Lermo:

Memaw & Papa gave Ronan this awesome Rock Star costume and an amp for his electric guitar!  He's a real rocker now!

Make a Wish, Ronan!
