June Birthdays-Platt Style

We just celebrated Shawns 25th Birthday and a few months ago I was trying to decide what I could do for him-and I knew that the best gift I could get him was to have all of his family together for a BBQ. So we planned a fun BBQ Birthday for all of the Platt family at the park behind our house. We had such a fun time all together and it was great because our sister in law Becky was also having a June birthday as well as 2 of our little nephews Cael and Brayden. So, we decided to celebrate all the June Birthdays!
We had everyone together except for Shawns brother, Ben, who was in Texas who will be out next week and Shawns youngest brother Joseph who is on his mission in Tennessee.
It was great to have the park in the backyard and we took over the playground with all of the little nieces and nephews-then we had a BBQ with lots of yummy food and then a competitive volleyball game and we ended with a few presents and some cupcakes.

The whole family
All of the nieces and nephews. 11 boys and just 2 girls!
Shawns oldest brother Garrett and his cute family: Garrett, Cynthia, Jacob, Gabe, and Jonathan Shawn could not wait to get his RC cars out to show them off to everyone. The nephews were loving the cars and Shawn made sure that they all got a chance to drive them around. We took over all of the swings-Kyle is here staying at our house so he helped entertain the kids on the swings

Thank you to all of our Platt family for driving down to our house and helping celebrate all of our June Birthdays. We had fun and cant wait to see everyone for the 4th of July holiday weekend!
