J & J's SuRpRiSe 30th Birthday Fiesta!

Amigos!
I will never forget when the twins were born!  I remember sleeping with my parents the night my mom went into labor.  Her water broke ;)  Bless her heart...she had no idea what was in store.  The twins came 6 weeks early, and I guess I should mention, she thought she was having 1, let me say that again, 1 baby.  A couple hours later she pushed Joseph Scott out, and then the Doctor told her to keep pushing because there was another heartbeat and she was going to have another baby, which minutes later would come breech, Jeffrey Ryan.  Can you imagine?  Because I CANNOT!  They were so teeny and sweet.  Had to be in the hospital for quite awhile, especially little Joey.  Man, I love these boys!!!  They have added so much joy to our family, I cannot imagine life without them.  They really can turn a frown upside down, they constantly make me laugh.  They are 2 of the most lovable, yet bratty boys you'll ever meet.  We tease them saying they created Hennessy humor(although Uncle Noel adds his fare share too,) which has now been passed onto my children ;) I have ALWAYS been so close to them.  They have been constants in my life.  Two of the best friends a sister could as for.  Everyone that knows me...also knows how protective I am of them.  I took on a motherly role with them at a young age, and had a hard time letting go of that.  They are two incredible men and I am so proud of them!  I love them dearly and couldn't ask for better brothers(I love all my brothers, but these guys are my baby bro's!)  I can't believe they're 30!  I cherish all of the memories I've created with them over the years.  I am so blessed they live in Spokane.  My kids love them to bits too, so they'd be so sad if they didn't have their uncles here.  They miss their uncle Noel so much and talk about him all the time(another story.)

Tabitha, Tara, my mama, and I(I really didn't do much,)  planned a surprise Fiesta.  It was so much fun!  The Mexican food was out of this world, we played Latin music all night, the kids played pin the tail on the donkey, the guys played cornhole,  we ate, and ate, and ATE, visited with family, and laughed all night long.  Was a perfect party.  Here are some fun pictures.  Tabitha has more, and got some super fun pictures, so I will add them soon.
Sweet baby girl Reegan(my niece)

Hi, I am the CUTEST senorita in Spokane!  I kept telling her she looked like Rosarita on the can of refried beans, or better yet, the lady on the box of sunmaid brand raisins.  Tab you are the cutest and I love you!
