Anden's Favorite Pals

Anden at Travis' Graduation Party.

Lauren giving a great toast to Travis.

Happy 3rd Birthday Grace!





Happy 4th Birthday, Peyton!



Anden had a great week because he got to hang out with some of his closest friends. Of course Anden is super close to his cousin Tylan. They are practically brothers and spend more time with each other than possibly anyone else. My face lights up when those two are together (well....for the most part, because they also fight like brothers). These pictures depict their relationship perfectly, cracking up at nothing simply laughing because the other one is, content just being with each other. I was so glad I was able to capture this moment of them. I have such fond memories of growing up with my cousin and I am so blessed Anden will have the same sweet moments!

When we are tucking Anden into bed, there are a few things we know he is going to mention in his goodnight prayers - Peyton, Tylan, and Trains! I think Peyton has a special place in Anden's heart because Peyton's mom Tamyra watched him for me last year. Peyton got to hang out with Anden when he was just a little guy and taught him the ropes. Now, Peyton is so great to allow Anden to follow him around. If Peyton jumps off the curb, Anden does...if Peyton goes down the slide, then Anden is right behind him. Peyton's little shadow. Anden had the best time at Peyton's Fourth Birthday Party this past Wednesday, just because it was Peyton's Party.

On Friday night we went to Grace's Third Birthday Party. Grace's parents Lauren and Travis lead Life Group with us, so Grace & Anden often hang out together. They can play for ever together and not get upset at each other. Grace is so laid back and sweet, she can just roll with Anden's over possessive attitude toward his toys. Grace just smiles at Anden and will find another toy to play with. She is so sweet and I think Anden adores her for it!

On a side note we also went Grace's dad's Graduation Party on Saturday. We are so proud of Dr. Jordan. Congratulations Travis!

So it was a great week hanging out with Anden's Pals and our friends too! Unfortunately I ate way too much cake!
