That's what we like to do around here. I don't know if y'all know this about me. I love parties. I love going to them. I love throwing them. The biggest down-side to our house, is that it's not an excellent entertaining house. (We still attempt it's just not as comfortable.) However, for my birthday we wanted to have people over because that's what makes me happy. I made this lovely cake. Thanks pinterest for an easy way to make things pretty.  (But I made myself a key lime pie.) I know I probably shouldn't be cooking for myself on my birthday, but I like what I make better... haha.

This is our good friend Shan. Her and her husband got baptized in December and we consider them dear friends of ours. We our so glad that we have had the chance to get to know them better. They are darling together.

And because my birthday was on a Sunday I got to celebrate ALL weekend! It rocked to get waited on so much.

On Sunday, we got to play games all afternoon my favorite. First we played a new one that we got for Christmas called Quirkle. Aria can play it and it's really fun. Then Nate thought it would be fun to take pictures instead of playing games. I need to teach him how to focus though... ugh. I prefer these kind of pictures.

Nate prefers these.

 

And then we got to play my favorite - Clue. Seriously love that game. You just call anytime you're playing because I'm the only one in this house that really loves it. Any clue fanatics out there like me?

To top it off Nate went with me to our first marriage class. No we're not struggling, but if you keep working on it then you'll never be struggling and so far we've actually learned quite a few things. I'm extremely happy we took it.

We love our pools. Especially with friends. Here we are trying to convince Nate he can do a front flip. He still doesn't believe me.  #thiswasthebestone   #jeffjustwentupanddidit   #overandover   #unafraid   #doesntcarewhatpeoplethink   #wishididnt  # summerlovin Independence day kickball.

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.
