More birthday celebrations

Happy Birthday to Aaron!!



A chocolate pecan cake with butterscotch caramel and choc. drizzle. Aaron's special request.

Sunday night we went to my mom and dads for a birthday dinner for my boys :) We played wii, had dinner, cake, and presents. Thanks Mom and Dad for a fun night. And for Aaron's new tools. He LOVES them. Now I need to find a project so I can put him to work.

Tonight we are having a little family party for Aaron at home since today is really his b-day. Yummy dinner and some more presents. We love you Aaron and hope its a great day!

Parker and KC got fun new capes, Superman on one side and batman on the other. Here's my little superheros saving the day.

I know, the videos are kinda long, but its so worth it :)

Sorry, I'm extremely unphotogenic, but heres my best attempt at a picture of my new hair color. What do you think?
I'm in a rut right now and needed to try something different. I like it in in person, but not so much in the picture. Guess you'll just have to come and see me to get a better look.

Birthday Boy

Parkers birthday party was so much fun. All his little friends were able to make it and he was really excited. First thing this morning I came downstairs to find him setting the table for his party. Plates, forks,a nd even the extra folding chairs. And then he ran laps around the house practically until everyone got here. I love his birthday. It might be even more fun for me to see him so happy and excited than it actually is for him. Here are some of the highlights.

Does this remind anyone else of a pet store? Its a double decker crib system for daycares. Oh the things you can find on craiglist. Poor kids

Yeah for McDonalds!

Well tonight we took Sarahs advice and headed out to McDonalds, after dinner, so the kids, mainly Parker, could play. It was so great!! I never remember to go there and think we will try more often now. The one by our house has a great play place and Parker had a chance to burn up lots of extra energy. Even KC got in on the fun. They had an area with basketballs and a hoop and he just loved it when we would lift him up so he could make a basket :) So thanks for the tip Sarah!! Worked like a charm. The kids got to have fun and run around, and Aaron and I got to keep our sanity :) Tomorrow afternoon they are off to grandma and grandpas house for some fun so that will be nice too. They are going pretty early, what will I do with all that kid free time before Aaron is off work?? I can hardly wait

On another note, I'm trying to teach KC how to say I love you. Hes learning lots of new words right now, even though I think I'm the only one who understand them. So tonight we were practicing, and I actually heard a little "wuv oo". Even though it wasn't spontaneous, it still melts my heart. That boy is too cute.
