THIRTY-SEVEN

WHOA...really...I am that old?!  No matter what the friends say...I am sticking to the fact, that it is my last year in my MID THIRTIES!!!  It has been a great day, and a busy day!  Christian ended up with a last minute playdate, so I got a pedicure, hit lunch with buddies, got some sweet gifts, took kids to well checks, had a great mexican dinner on the patio (that pic got erased :(...boo hoo), and finished it off with scooter riding out front.  ALL GOOD TIMES!!!  I could not have asked for a better day!!! 

I guess Christian was so excited to give me his gift.

 

Who doesn't need some Febreeze?!

EASTER STUFF

I didn't want to rain on Christian's birthday parade, so here's our Easter, a few days late. Christian was lucky enough to get in on some Easter action at school. They had a small party, and the kids got to do an egg hunt. I use the hunt word loosely. On Easter Sunday, we went to Collin's parents, and not only did we do Easter, but we celebrated the boys' bdays too. Fun was had by all!

The school happenings.




EASTER SUNDAY

The Cousins




Time for the hunt...


the haul...


MONEY!!!


Finally, some bday gift opening.



He's off into the sunset with his Easter goods and new ride.


Oh the memories...

2 Days Late...this time!

The day before we Easter we celebrated this kiddo!

We started the day with the first soccer game of the season,
and he picked a bagel sandwich for his birthday lunch.

The big party was at 2...at The Playfort!




He had a great time, and got some sweet presents!


Let me just say, I don't recommend the Squishy Baff!

After he opened some gifts, we were off to dinner.

He, like Cutter, made a last minute switch.
He wanted to stay close to home so he could get back to his new goods quicker.


He did get a tasty birthday dessert!


It was a long day but a fun day!

Oh, Christian Kennedy, what can we say about you?!

YOU ARE ALL BOY...still!!!
You love anything boy related, we never know what will come out of your mouth, you are a stinker, have some sweet athletic skills, you love having friends, could survive on nothing but junk, are super good at eating new foods, want everything you see on a commercial,
but you do know how to love!

WE LOVE YOU!
