Birthday weekend!

More birthday celebrations around here. Ben will turn 11 next week (more on that later) but wanted to have a party while school is still in session. Usually we party in the summer but friends are already on vacation and such so we decided to hold a friend party a bit earlier.

Ben wanted a boondocks party. He had a blast with a few if his friends and the party was a success. He doesn't like cake so donuts were enjoyed by all. Boondocks was a family affair as Chris, Andrew, Nic and I tagged along. We had an awesome game of miniature golf - Nic stole our balls almost every hole. And we soaked each other well on the water boats.

Last night we had a two-for-one family party for Nicholas and Ben. Since their birthdays are so close It's easier for everyone to hold one family party. Less driving, etc. it was a fun night packed with boys, water guns and bar-b-que. not many pics from last night. Duh, me. I made an awesome cake which I'll share photos and the recipe in a later post.

Happy birthday boys!!!
Thanks for coming everyone! 











Nicholas is 3!


WOOHOO!

We had a birthday around here! Yesterday was a big day, Nicholas turned three years old.  He was extremely excited to have a birthday, be sung too, open presents, blow out candles and eat cake.  He has been waiting patiently for his turn at a birthday to come around.  We had a small family celebration (after a day filled with baseball for Andrew).  Here are a few pictures from the day.  We will have a larger party for him with kid games, cousins and such next week.

I had to hastily wrap his presents because he kept following me around wanting to open his presents.  No glamour wrapping for this kid. He wanted to help frost and sprinkle his cake, he kept saying "me do it" and carried around the frosting package most the day (and he did help). After he blew out the candles he proceeded to stick the candles in various places on the cake.  It was his day for sure.

We all love this little man so very much.  His brothers are delighted with each new thing he does and learns.  He constantly cracks us up.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICHOLAS!!!








Ka-POW! Happy birthday!!!

Hb Logan and Isaac! We had such a great time at your super hero birthday party. Ky outdid herself with hero themed decor, food and costumes! The boys got into the theme and Nicholas has been wearing his costume (party swag gift) all week.

Here is a glimpse (crappy phone photos).
