Fun With Friends

We've gotten a few cute pics when friends have come over lately. I think the funniest is the one with the kids and Drew ... the new thing to do is to get out all of Mommy's brushes and fix people's hair. And the best way to style hair? To add cheese, of course!

Birthday! Birthday!

Today was a busy birthday day. We started the day off at Monkey Joe's for Alicia's 5th birthday party. As Monkey Joe's is one of the kids' favorite places, it was a good way to start the day. And Heather did an awesome job making Alicia's cool castle cake. :) Happy Birthday, Alicia!


After fun at Alicia's party and a nap to re-energize, we headed to Hannah's 1st birthday party. Lucas and Megan were excited because they were on their way to eat pizza and cake for the second time that day. :) Happy Birthday, Hannah!

A Star Wars Birthday Party

The Star Wars themed birthday party for Samantha (5) and Everett (2) was pretty cool. They had lightsabers (chocolate covered pretzel rods), Han Solo stuck in carbonite (a small figurine in jello) and several other themed food items. Darth Vader's head even doubled as a piñata. The kids had a blast playing together and we (technically Drew) even got a good picture of all of them together: Lucas, Samantha, Hannah, Carl, Megan, Ben, Alicia, Everett, Kaylee and Nathaniel.
