Pretty girls

The lake was so pretty.

We were able to watch some really amazing and unusual (for Nebraska) pelicans.

There's a short video at the bottom of the pelicans.

My mom had the idea to make each child an owl-shaped cake and let them decorate it with fruit.  I helped Bowen a little bit, but the older kids had a lot of fun picking out the eyes, beak, and wings,

Happy Birthday, Baby Bowen!
(He ate the blueberry eyes first!)

Alexa was proud of her owl.

Tysen's owl looks a little jumbled up!

Cousin Dezirae, Uncle Eric, and Granddad and Grandma Briggs were able to come out to celebrate Bowen's birthday with us.
