Grandpa's Birthday

On Saturday we went over to K&D's house to have dinner and celebrate D's birthday. The boys were excited to help Grandpa blow out his candles.

and of course eat a little of the cake, with lime sherbet instead of ice cream. I suppose that lime sherbet goes well with orange dreamsicle cupcakes.

Happy Birthday D I hope we get to celebrate many more with you!

December Photo of the Day and New Year's Eve

I am a bit behind here but I am still in busy mode as we have two birthdays to celebrate this week and I am working on a couple of things for my little niece who also has a birthday this month I will be happy when all of the celebrating is done! LOL. Anyway here are my photos of the day for December.

I loved this project, I was able to capture some moments that I would have missed otherwise and I got to practice with my camera a ton, which was great. I am taking a break from the project for now but I might do a photo a day in May when the lovely Spring light and warmth have returned.

We spent New Year's Eve at K & D's it was a wonderful time with family. We spent the evening visiting, eating great food, and celebrating the end of year and K's Birthday. We also took a few family photos after dinner. It is hard to get little boys to sit still in low light so that there is no motion blur but we got a couple of cute ones.

I hope you all had a wonderful New Year's Eve and are enjoying a great start to the New Year. I will be back to post pictures of Christmas, birthdays etc, etc

Will's Birthday Part 2

We continued Will's Birthday celebration in the afternoon. Grandma and Grandpa joined us and brought Pizza Planet Pizza, which was delicious. We opened gifts, donned birthday hats,and ate cake.

Will's Birthday Part 1

My little guy is now 4! He is very proud of this fact and believes he can do all kinds of thing now that he is 4! He can't wait to turn 5 (I can wait, they grow so fast!). We started out his celebration on Friday with the cake preparations. We made cupcake in ice cream cones, it was a big hit Will already told me that he wants me to make it again next year!

We started out his birthday with Muffins, and a candle (upon his request because we did it last year.) Unfortunately he had gotten up early and then went back to sleep so he had to be woken up and was still really tired so he didn't want to eat much muffin.
After breakfast we packed up the boys and headed to the Giggle Factory. The boys had a great time and we worn out by the time we left.

There was lots of Sliding

Lots of playing and running around

and quick break to read about the latest in the Health industry
A great time was had by all

We finished off the morning with lunch at Perkins, Will had mac and cheese and Jake had a cheese quesadilla, a quick trip to Target for birthday hats, and a nap.
