B's 8th Birthday ...

Sorry this blog has been such a SNOOZE lately! Just hard to keep up with everything ... blogs, Facebook, Etsy ... kids, etc. Anyhoo ... in case you haven't heard, BRETT IS NOW EIGHT.

We celebrated with an awesome pool party. Brett was in heaven... he probably went down the 2-story slide 109 times.

Here were the highlights of his Birthday Celebrations:

The banner [well, maybe not a 'highlight', but a tradition].

The treats.

His buddies.

The slide.

Legos & his new Jaguars shirt [thank you Gays].

His new bike.

And a self-inflating whoopie cushion [he's sitting on it]. We couldn't possibly forget that. :)

He has had an awesome year ... and I know this next one will bring even GREATER things. We love you Bretty-Brett! Happy 8, Big Guy!

Happy Birthday, Roman!

Yesterday was Roman's 3rd Birthday!

We celebrated with him on Sunday at his Fireman's Birthday Party!

Becky had a cute activity where a large house had been drawn on the driveway & she had the kids draw flames with pink, red, orange & yellow chalk.  Then they threw water balloons at it to put the flames out!  So cute!

We had a great time!

[We thought this was so cute ... one of Roman's presents was this huge dinosaur.  He immediately ROARED & had it attack Brett's stomach!  :)  It was so funny ... and I loved Brett's reaction!]

Happy Birthday to my very favorite 3 year old nephew.  :)

How Davis spent HIS DAY.

Before I do Easter, I need to finish up Davis's Birthday!  :)  Here is how he spent his BIG DAY.

Davis got to be "Star of the Week" at school which meant he got to bring in a poster with all of his favorite things.  The morning of his Birthday, Libby & I went to his classroom to read Davis's favorite book, "The Runaway Pancake".  We also brought a cookie cake to share with his friends at school!  After school it was a nice day, so Davis, Brett & Libby played in the backyard.  They enjoyed blowing bubbles!  Then later Mimaw & Pappy came over for dinner.  He opened presents & cards and we all had ice cream sandwiches as Davis's Birthday dessert (he picked it out).  All in all, it was a FABULOUS FIFTH BIRTHDAY.

 

 [Isn't this so cute?  They all put their hands in!]

[and I just thought this was too funny. Libby put Mr.Potato Head's glasses on her Dora doll.]

The Spiderman Party!

This past weekend Davis had a Birthday Party with his best buddies from school. We kept it simple ... and it was perfect.  Here are some photos.

"pssssst..."

"hee hee ha ha"

Mr.Twenter leading everyone outside for games...

After some B-ball, we played the Spiderman version of Pin the tail on the Donkey.

(I covered up the eyes of a Spiderman mask.)

Jackson H. was the winner!  :) [Prize was just braggin' rights]

Then we moved on to the pinata... 

Everyone got a couple turns before it burst!

Then we moved back inside for cake & presents.

Mrs.Twenter led every one in singing "Happy Birthday to Davis".

This little guy has been anticipating his Birthday since it was my Birthday in February.  I'd say it was worth the wait!  :)
