Happy Second Birthday Alexis

Tyler Turns NINE

I didn't get a chance to post these because we went out of town the day after Ty's Birthday. Our first night just the family went to C.huck E Cheese's, and the second night of the celebration we had dinner and cake at my parent's house. He LOVED his presents, he got a PSP from my brother and some cash from his great aunt and cousin:) Oh and we bought him a skateboard.

The Party at Our House

The party was a blast!!! Lexi's little friends were so cute, she had so much fun opening her presents (well attempting to - the other kids were pretty fast helpers), eating the cake, and running around like a the little madwoman she is!!!

Sharing and feeding chips to her friend.

Lexi and her little buddies.

She started out all neat and tidy...

But in true one year old fashion she was a wonderful mess by the end.

Ciara is already aching for another one...

Aren't they cute!!!!

Goodbye Twenties

I said goodbye to my twenties today.  It was a good decade..I can only hope the next will be even better:)  We celebrated by going to the M.elting Pot and eating a ton of yummy fondu.  It was a big hit with the kids - in fact I think it might have been a bigger treat for Ty then me!!  

HAPPY (Belated) BIRTHDAY Uncle Brenton

My brother came down from NYC to celebrate his birthday with his friends this weekend.  He came over for birthday cake and to see his niece and nephew.  Tyler absolutely ADORES him and they had fun playing the Wii games that were Ty's birthday present "from his cool uncle".  Check out the cake...my new hobby has been trying to recreate the C.ake Love cakes and
 cupcakes.  I made both the cake and the icing from scratch using the C.ake Love recipes.  If I can figure out how to pack them I'm going to take one up our newly named MHC in NYC reunion weekend on Saturday.  A group of my college buddies are meeting up because its been too long since we've seen each other and we're out of weddings to go to - well maybe one more coming up (wink wink Dev ).
