Introduction to James, Elias, and Cora

James enjoyed a great birthday and Halloween celebration with my roommate from the Academy and her husband! This is a bit late as winter is almost here!  Here are some great pictures from our Fall adventures - including the local county fair, attending a friend's wedding, a trip to Florida, and Halloween.  My Halloween Dynamic Duo - Batman and Robin! James loves to "read."  He loves all super heroes.   Me and the boys going for a walk! While in Florida we enjoyed a wonderful visit with Grandpa and Grandma Sunshine!

Where has the time gone?  James Douglas Walters is now 5 years old.  What joy he brought to our lives in 5 years!  To celebrate his birthday we took a Disney Cruise.  JillMama, Aunt Pat, Cousin Tisha, Aunt Teri, Elias, and I were all there to celebrate James' birthday with him.  Unfortunately, Tobias wasn't able to make it due to work commitments - but we had a great time.  Daddy will definitely join us for the next cruise though! James and JillMama on the ship ready for the big cruise!   There was so much to do onboard - even play Foosball on the 13th deck! Aunt Pat and Elias ready to set sail! Birthday breakfast in Nassau, Bahamas. Enjoying the Toy Story room onboard - so cool! There were 2 water slides onboard and James loved them both! Happy birthday wishes from Donald! Handsome birthday boy! Birthday cake - tasty, tasty, tasty! And an ice cream sundae - 2 desserts for the birthday boy! ...
