Someone's turning five!

Today Roy's little niece Elissa turned 5!

I can't believe it. 

It makes me sad that all of  Roy's nieces and nephews will be so much 

older than our kids, if we have any...

I guess we'll just have a good supply of babysitters!

Roy has 9 nieces and nephews, and they're all pretty much adorable.

But I might be biased.

No, actually, they really are just adorable.

They call me Aunt Baff...and I love it :)

Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the birthday girl, because that would have

required her to stand still!! And they were just having too much fun to slow down!

Here's a few pictures of the cutie pies...most of these are kinda old unfortunately,

which just tells me that we need to see these kiddos more often!!

Jordan and Dakota

Elissa

Kayden

'Kella'

Danielle

Well thats all but 2 of them. The others I have actual photographs of, 

but not on my computer. I'll have to scan them in sometime. 

Things kids say:

Elissa (to the ice cream man): excuse me, do you take debit cards?

**initially i though this was hilarious, but after some thought I

realized that ice cream men may very well have credit card machines these days

Danielle (to me): Are you a baby or a mommy?

Me: I'm not a baby or a mommy

Danielle: Are you a kid?

Me: No, I'm a not a kid...I'm a grown up.

Danielle: Did you marry your daddy?

Me:  No, I married your uncle Roy. Thats why I'm your Aunt Beth

Danielle (after a long pause): Hmmmm...

Will you push me in the baby swing?

Apparently, in the mind of a 4 year old, you're either a baby or a mommy...

anything else is just a little too hard to grasp! Ha!
