We Are 2 YEARS OLD!

After Red Robin on their 2nd Birthday. Blake didn't let go of those "bawoons" the whole way home!

Drew didn't want anything to do with the "baboons" that day!

 

Blake telling me that these are "bawoons"!

The boys were much more excited about "cake" this year!!

"When can we eat this cake?!"

Susie G did such a great job- it was almost too pretty to eat!!

Blake picked these presents from Aunt Jill & Mike 1st- soccer balls!

After these were opened it was hard to get the boys to open anything else!

They LOVE their sports!

Blake, the boots are just a little too big!

Blake and "Gidgi"- he just loves that dog!

WOW! Where does time go!? My babies are big boys! It's bittersweet, since this is such a fun age! Kyle took them to Racketman the weekend of their birthday to pick out thier own racket (Daddy was relieved they didn't pick out the Dora racket)! We had a blast celebrating the boys "birthday week"! We kicked off the week by going to Red Robin with Grandma Debbe and PawPaw, the boys were sung to and got "bawoons/ baboons" and ice cream! Then, we went to Longhorn with Grandpa Bruce and Mimi while they were in town and got more ice cream! Longhorn brough two cups of ice cream with whipped cream and a candle in each cup, Blake blew out both candles and then yelled, "I did it!". Drew showed Mimi and Grandpa Bruce how he can finish a dessert!

We did a Curious George theme and the boys had such a good time celebrating with grandparents and Aunt Jill & Mike. Grandma Debbe and PawPaw hosted the party, since we moved in between mailing the invites and having the party (who'd a thought we would have been able to move in 2 weeks!?). The weather didn't cooperate to try out their new soccer goal, but that didn't bother the boys! They were entertained by using their balloon bouquets as punching bags!

We had pizza, the boys favorite, Papa John's and cake from Susie G's (yum)! Blake couldn't wait to dig in the cake, so since it was his b-day we let him stick his fingers in the icing. Grandma Debbe made them each their own cakes so they could each blow out 2 candles- they loved it! The boys got a lot of awesome new toys and clothes! Drew loved to model his new outfits! 

Thank you so much to everyone for the great gifts and again to Grandma Debbe and PawPaw for hosting our party! It was a success and can't wait to have it next year at our new house!!
Just for the record, the boys have had an eventful birthday since they were born (thanks to Mother Nature). The day they were born there was an earthquake with a few aftershocks, last year the day after their 1st b-day bash, our basement had a major crack in the basement (the flood of 2009), and this past year we had a tornado warning! We are optimistic this cycle will break next year!
