I can't believe our baby boy is 4!

The time really does pass by so fast. He was so excited to have his birthday party. We had a joint party with another missionary family at Carl's Jr. It is like a Hardee's. The kids loved it though. McKenzi turned 6 and had Hannah Montana and Cooper of course had to have Spider Man!

Can you tell he was a little excited?

Here are a few of the girls playing!

Here is Avery's new little buddy Sophie. They are only a few months apart. Avery is older but Sophie just towers over her. I can't believe how tall this girl is. Or maybe Avery is just really small?

Here is Cooper's Spider Man table. He now has that big Spider Man hanging on the back of his door in his bedroom.

Bowden didn't want his picture taken obviously.

Here is the cake that Kandi made Cooper. Even though it melted some on the ride over it was still adorable. Thanks again Kandi for being such a Martha Stewart.

Uncle David was trying to protect Avery during all the piñata hitting! She loves her Uncle David so much!

This is all that was left of poor little Spider Man!

Cooper still doesn't like loud noises. This is how he was when everyone else were getting their turns in hitting the piñata.

All of the kids getting their candy. Including the "big kid" Darin. He says that he is helping Cooper. I think he means helping Cooper get the candy that he wants to have. Also you can see Avery to the side where Uncle David is putting the big princess hat on her. She wasn't scared to get in there with the other kids and grab as many suckers as she possibly could!

The two goobers! Getting ready to sing Happy Birthday!

Cooper's favorite but also his most shy part.

Cooper and Aunt Tiffany. She had to wear both party hats to make both of the kids happy!

Here is the birthday girl.

Cooper with his two favorite girls, Landri and Susanna!

Happy Birthday Coop!

Here they always smash your face in the cake but Cooper did not want to do that. So daddy happily stepped in to get a big bite of cream cheese icing. Avery started crying though when she saw them do it to her daddy. Cooper thought it was pretty funny. I believe he was just happy that they didn't do it to him.

Here are the girls showing Coop what they picked out for him.

After the party we went home to give Coop his presents from us and from Baga.

He was so happy if you can't tell.

He had to model and get a picture with his presents.

I was trying to just get a picture of him opening his presents but when he would see me with the camera at him he would just smile so big.

Cooper even let Avery play with his new toy for a minute. That was only because he had others to open though!

Thanks again Baga for the cool Spider Man toys. I think you can tell how much he likes them!

I don't like to take pictures but I had to get one of me and my big birthday boy!

Daddy had to get one with his big 4 year old too! They are so much alike. Both adorable.

Happy Birthday Cooper!

We have enjoyed the past 4 years so much! You are such a blessing and we love you!

Oh the reason why everybody is called Uncle and Aunt is because when you are in missions they are your second family. So even though they are blood family they are our mission family. So the people on the blog are our mission family! Just wanted to make that clear because we love and miss all the aunts and uncles back home very much. But we also have our mission family here that we love dearly!
