A Very Merry Birthday post for Kace Eli

It is Kacie-Con-Queso's birthday! Wow, the world meets a super cool five year old today. Kace is a classic 2nd child. He is easy going, friendly, & fiercely loyal. Uncle Matt is a 2nd child & totally relates to this kid.

Koen & Kace will actually smile for the camera! They let me have at it during their summer trip here. Their deal is that they have to be able to look at the picture once you have taken it. They are both tech savvy beyond their years.

Berry pickin' during their visit. Parker mocked Kelly out for his poor showing. (His tray had been robbed by the kids repeatedly.)

One thing cousins that live in seperate countries miss is the birthday parties that come and go each year. Kaleb was stoked the boys could make it to his Roaring Springs 9 year old adventure. In July I won 10 tickets to H2Overload & knew we would use them for Kaleb's big party. It was not exactly age appropriate, with all the hormonal, bikini-clad teenagers grinding on the dance floor. But no one in our group under the age of 10 seemed to care. And hey, the price was right.

Grandpa Ken is having a birthday in a few weeks. He is a little older than 9 ;)

Kaleb good friend for 3 years, Cade came along so we had Ken, Kelly, Kaleb, Cade, Koen, Kace, & Cojo-whew! We only lost one kid. Collin wandered off & scared me to death for about 5 minutes.

Well, this one was for you Kace, you are our #1, just like your jersey says. We wish you great things this year & can't wait to play again when we meet up to see your new BROTHER. That's right folks, Kirsten is having a boy. (I already told you, Archuletas only produce male offspring. Hey Kir! We could have been Queens in China!)
