The Party was Today!

Well, with Grandma and Grandpa here, we had the birthday party for little peanut today at Chuck E. Cheese's, you know, where a kid can be a kid!
Here is Collin watching daddy make his birthday cake.Yes, D not only makes swords, he makes cakes ladies. Yes, and he even sews. Weird. Anyway, here's a picture of the finished cake. He really does make amazing cakes.
So, that was the one he made. Here's the one I made for the actual day of his birthday. See a difference anybody?


Here's the king for the day blowing out his candles!
Here's Collin and his friend saying, "please mommy, can we play a little bit longer?" Cute, huh?


You'll never believe this, but we have been saving CEC tickets for years now. We had almost 3,000. There was a remote control car there that was 4,000 tickets. The girl there said that she'd give it to us cause it was the last one, and had been there a while. It's really, really cool. They're downstairs playing with it right now, including Grandpa! I'll have to post pictures of that.

Thank you to everyone for being so sweet to my sister-in-law as she starts up her blog. She's so excited to get to know everybody. I have the best blogging friends in the world! She's so addicted already, she's waiting right now for this post!

We have done so many exciting things lately that I've taken cool pictures of. We went to a waterfall the other day, and I got amazing pictures. I'll have to post them later in the week when I have time. You'll love them.

Later everybody!

All I can say is, "Thanks Mom!" My mom exposed me to all those those things growing up.

But a really big thanks to K for making all the really important things happen...getting the needed ingredients, getting the gifts, and getting me out of bed this morning when I wanted to still be sleeping, or the cake wouldn't have been done on time.

Again, another awesome post! Okay, so I knew D could sew and make swords, but I had no idea he could be that creative with a CAKE and make it happen! WOW! I was very impressed! And you're right, I have been waiting for the b-day post from you. I told D last night that you needed to update asap about birthday details....and you followed through! I enjoyed it! Brent and I started to write another post last night. We figured since we are so boring, that we would think back to something exciting in the past and write about that. So I started to write about your cruise we took about a month ago. See, problem is - I go into way too much detail. The post would have been WAY too long. Why can't I ever make anything short and simple? Oh well, another post should happen soon on my page. Thanks for sending your friends my way. They're great!

Looks like a great birthday party! I am so impressed with that cake, and the fact that your husband embraces his feminine side. Big Daddy does, too; he does beautiful floral arrangements!

Glad Collin got the remote control car! He desrves it after getting all those tickets!
