Birthday Bashes!

My babes are getting so old! This week has been a crazy week of birthday celebrations. I wouldn't say I go overboard but I am pretty near standing on the edge of the boat!! I just love to celebrate and make their days perfect. So it is a celebration from morning until night. We sing at every meal with candles and we eat a lot of cakes and goodies along the way. It makes for a pretty sugar filled week when they have birthdays in the same week! So here is our weeks birthday journey!

Happy B-day G and H!

Let's start with G's morning. French toast with "fire" as he called it and presents! What more could you ask for! I made these little treats for G's friends party- rainbow cupcakes. So much cuter than this picture shows! I frosted them with a little white frosting but they are plenty cute on their own without frosting and super tasty!G got a remote control police car for his birthday. He loves it- although he also loves his new fire truck, 3 dump trucks, helicopter, two trains, train book, transportation book, 2 transportation puzzles, etc. Can you tell what he likes to play with???So we have been so lucky to have so many little friends G's age here! So we invited them to join us at a local farm to see the animals and eat some cupcakes. It was super fun. This is the smile I got from him all day. Well this or his eyes completely shut! But he is still cute on this little pony even if he does look a little like a pirate!And for his cake- you guessed it! A train cake. P and I had fun until 11 p.m. the night before doing this little beauty but it turned out great. G wanted to hold it all day and eat it all day. He would get so mad when I told him he had to wait!And then for the little princess. Ever read the book Pinkalicious? If not, read it. For H's school cupcakes we made the pinkalicious cupcakes. They are super pink on the inside and out. Are they not the cutest cupcakes ever?Then for her friend's party we did a Seaworld theme since we loved seaworld so much this summer. We played pin the tail on Shamu and throw the fish beanbag into the sea lions mouth. We also had this little beauty! Interestingly enough, if you put the mouth in the wrong place it looks like a shark instead of a dolphin. I was very happy when I figured out where to put the mouth. Thanks Aunt H for helping with your superb decorating skills!Isn't getting presents super fun! So H got the opposite of G. Barbies, princesses, fancy nancy, sunglasses, cupcake kits, makeup, and other super girly stuff. Love how different they are from each other but how much they love each others stuff too!For weeks, H has been asking to go to breakfast at Mimi's cafe so we went to breakfast with Grandma and Grandpa and had lots of fun. She got her chocolate chip pancakes and a whole lot of whipped cream on her hot chocolate!I know an umbrella is a simple gift but she has been wanting one forever. Look at how happy she is to have something so simple. Now if only it would rain in Utah!!H had a group of super cute little girls and one super cute little boy at her party! It wasn't that a bunch of little boys couldn't come, she only invited one, so thanks for coming M!

I love how intently she is listening to M about the present. Notice the football in the background...that is what was entertaining P and a few of the other Dad's.

Thanks to Grandpa we had face painting too which they all loved. Because they do face painting at Sea World- we never paid to have it done- but they do have it there!!
So by the end we were all so tired we fed ourselves the Clyde the sea lion. Ok well maybe not, but the kids did think this was really funny. It is pretty funny. This is the bean bag throw in case you are wondering! ( thanks to my friend N who is an amazing artist)
Love those kids and their birthdays. Maybe H will give me at least a few weeks before she starts talking about next years party! She is so much like me when I was little. I blame and thank my mom for my obsession with fun parties. I have so many birthday memories and I know my little ones will too!
