Preston’s birthday was in January and we had a little family celebration then<\/a>.\u00a0 However, in typical Kate fashion, we had his party this past Thursday!\u00a0 I was 9 months pregnant in January and miserable and he wanted a swim party, so we decided to celebrate his HALF birthday this year!\u00a0 It was wonderful!<\/p>\n

The party was hot and fun, and we are so fortunate to have a wonderful place to have a swim party.\u00a0 Brad’s parents always willingly open their home and their pool to us and to all of our friends, and our kids love to have parties there.<\/p>\n

Preston decided months ago he wanted a Baylor party.\u00a0 He actually wanted an RGIII or Brittney Griner party and asked if I could make an RGIII cake.\u00a0 While I was flattered that he thought that was in any way possible, I assured him that it was not!\u00a0 I told him I would make a Baylor cake, but it would not be a sculpted person, nor would either of those players be making an appearance at the party.\u00a0 He was fine with it.<\/p>\n

I did, however, call Baylor and tell them that I had an 8 year old having a party and asked it they could send me a few Baylor Magazines and any other little goodies for little guys.\u00a0 They were WONDERFUL!\u00a0 A box arrived a few days later with magazines, coloring pages, pennants, a rally towel, highlighters for all the kids and more, and it was all FREE.\u00a0 Preston was thrilled, and I am positive he is SOLD on Baylor!\u00a0 I also purchased shirts from the Baylor bookstore that were on serious clearance, and all that made for a pretty fun party favor.\"\"<\/a>I wish I had more pics, but I think I was shooting in the wrong mode, because many of my pictures were too blurry to use. :(\u00a0 Here are a few from Preston’s 8.5 Baylor Birthday Party.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>When we received our box of free goodies from Baylor, Preston (my child who does not color, draw, or create ANYTHING unless a teacher is holding a box of sharpened colored pencils to his head) took the Baylor Bear fan, and drew a picture of the bear.\u00a0 He did an AMAZING job, and I had to hang it at the party!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The cake…a Baylor baseball, basketball, football helmet cake.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I told Preston he couldn’t get in the pool until I had a picture of all 3 of the kids.\u00a0 I got a quick pic of my kids, and about 5 minutes later I was taking pictures of Georgia and it hit me that I don’t just have THREE kids!\u00a0 I have FOUR now!!!\u00a0 Wow!\u00a0 Sleep deprivation setting in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>George (Granddear) and Georgia<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Nolan, Josh, Preston, and Michael<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We got to use the field goal my brother-in-law, Alan, made out of PVC pipe for Preston a few years ago.<\/p>\n
