HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIE! She Turned 3 May 9!
We had my Mom, Dad & Bryan over for cake and Ice Cream. She slept with her presents that night. I had a great picture and I accidentally deleted it. AARGH! I can make myself so MAD! She had a cute Tinkerbell Cake that she loved, Balloons and she got this Tiara from her Grandma P. NOTE: This is her Beautiful Princess Pose. Cracks me up her little face.

BIRTHDAY CAKE!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHOEBE! 1st Birthday May 17!
We celebrated with my Parents and Brayn. She loved the Balloons and I made a little cupcake cake. She ate her cupcake like a pro. We love her so much and her personality. She is so mellow until she doesn't get what she wants then watch out she will give you the what for!


DREW'S PRESCHOOL GRADUATION
Drew loved going to Preschool! His class put on a great Graduation Program. He learned so much and to this day when we pass an American Flag and he notices, he will say the Pledge of Allegiance. It is adorable, he says he wants to remember it so he can tell his Kindergarten teacher all about it.

ROB AND DREW'S TRIP TO NYC
Rob and Drew were able to go back to NYC for 5 days to visit with his Sister and Mom and some of his close friends. They had such a great time. Rob had a long list of Tourist Things he wanted to do, they weren't able to do all of them but they did get to check a few things off their list.

STAKE LAGOON DAY
I remember back in the day.... When I was in Grade School through High School. Stake Lagoon Day was IT! We looked forward to it, It was usually our main summer thing we did. But the whole Stake go involved. The Pavilion was full. The older people would hang out in the pavilion and visit and the kids would stop in during the day for drinks or treats or food. Last year we went and granted it was a little chilly but there we only 2 families in the Pavilion and ours was one of them. It was kind of sad. This year we went and camped, it was really nice we never did go to the Pavilion so I'm not sure what the Sad turnout was this year. My kids had fun and I'm sure the taller they get the more fun they will have. Drew went on the Rocko Rollo Planes with Rob this year. Drew is 5. I did not dare on those until I was at least 16....

DREW'S 5TH BIRTHDAY!
Drew really wanted a Friend party this year. I hesitated because honestly I did not want to put one on. I had never done it and I was afraid I would blow it... But he had so much fun with his friends, I'm so glad we did it. We decided (rather I decided) on a Space Themed Party. My Dad and Rob have this Rocket launcher they use in their Science Classes. I thought it would be fun for a bunch of 5yr olds to launch rockets themselves. I mixed in Alien Gold Robbers, Pin the Alien in the Spaceship and they each decorated their own Rocket Ships I think it turned out all right. I wish I had more photos, however I did this while Rob was away to school so... I didn't even have a chance to think about photos until the party was all but over. After it was over I wish I had a picture of each one of their faces when the pulled the cord to launch their rocket.

THE BOYS (Sophie) and THEIR ROCKETS:

BIRTHDAY CAKE! or as I have BIRTHDYA
Anyway I think it turned out cute and it was a GREAT alternative to cake. The Aliens were fun to make as well. Its the first time I ever used the Food Coloring Color Mist. Just a word or warning put down more protection that you think you ll need.

BIRTHDAY LEGOS:
Thanks Grandma P for helping make Drews BDay Fantastic. As you can see he is in love with he set. He even said, I will never take this apart. In a 5 year olds mind never must mean 24 hours. Admittedly that is 23 hours longer than he has ever left any other set together.

SILLY PICS OF THE KIDS:
That they took of each other.



DREWS EAR:
I just noticed this yesterday and I was sick to my stomach. His poor little ear is swollen and so bruised that its black. I thought maybe Sophie had bit him but he said he fell while getting out of his bunk bed....
