Birthday Boys!!

Last weekend we celebrated both boys birthdays. CT's birthday is on the 11th of this month, and Deacon's is on the 26th. :) Since it is such a busy month, we just did it together. Next year we are going to celebrate Deacon's in September on Gotcha Day! Since his is the day after Christmas. We will also do a little family party on his actual birthday.

On Friday we had big plans to take snacks to CT's school, and open some gifts early. Well, KG brought home a stomach bug that Mommy, Daddy, and she all got. So we were in bed all day sick as can be. We did manage to get a cookie cake to CT's school. Daddy felt well enough to let them open a few gifts.
Here KG is helping Deacon open his. :) He was so funny opening gifts. He would get so excited just in the opening part. :) He didn't really care what was inside, just thought it was fun to open them.

CT ripping into his gift.
Yippeeee Star Wars bedding. Deacon's was Spiderman bedding.
Saturday we had their party at the church. Deacon was loving the balloons.
We had a competition to see who could get the most points. Top two highest points won prizes. We had a basketball game, soccer kick, football throw, and golf putt.
Papa helped with the basketball toss.
Nana helped with the putt putt game. :)
Deacon was loving the inflatables. He thought it was cool he got to actually jump on something and wasn't getting in trouble.

Whooo Hoooo!! A Transformer helmet. Thanks Nana and Papa.

Loving the cake!

Happy Birthday You'll Have!!

This weekend we celebrated CT's 5th birthday with family and friends! He requested a bowling party again this year. Last year we only had about 2 friends show up, this year we had 12! It is such a crazy time of year, you just never know. :) Everyone had a GREAT time, and CT was very excited about the party and presents!!

CT wanted Yoda on his cake. So Yoda we had. :) He even had little hairs coming off of his face. ha!

May the force be with you! Notice KG eyeing the cake. We had to keep her away.

Friends having a great time bowling.

CT getting ready to bowl. We had to tell him to let others have a turn. He thought one lane was all for him.

Poppa and Papa hanging out, and guarding the cake. :)

KG wasn't as into the bowling as she was running around. I kept having to look for her.

CT blowing out his candles.

KG making sure that none of the icing went to waste.

Whoo Hoo!! Star Wars PJ's. What more could a boy ask for. We have worn them every night since.

Today is CT's Happy 5th Birthday!! We are SOOOO excited around here to be the BIG 5!! We have been waiting on this for a whole year.:) We started the morning with blueberry muffins, opened one birthday gift (our big party is on Saturday), and watched a Star Wars cartoon. All before we headed to Wee School.

Singing Happy Birthday to the shirtless wonder! :) He refuses to sleep in a shirt.

This past weekend we celebrated CT's 4th birthday. He wanted a CARS party at the bowling alley. So that is what we did. All the grandparents were able to come and a few of his little friends. They had a GREAT time! CT is very excited that he is four. He also is very concerned whether or not his clothes are a 4T. He informs me that he is too big for a 3T now. :) He is a mess, but makes us laugh. KG is still singing Happy Birthday to him. :)
