Final Birthday Recap & giveaway...and a winner

I know you are so glad to see the word Final in the title to the birthday posts! I had to space it out or it would have been a "big ol' one" as Sissy would say. And since we love the number 3 these days, we must be consistent!

On Saturday, the 6th, we had our Family Fun Party. There was more playing and jumping and eating. This time we grilled hotdogs and hamburgers.


This is Sissy with her cousins from the Honea side. My bro's fam didn't make it because it was my nephew's last ball game of the season. But, Sister keeps reminding me that we will have another party next time they come up here.

There was also more marshmallow pops, which were again a big hit.

Even to great grandmothers.

And this is what it looks like when you put a whole pop in your mouth.

And I served the cupcakes again...and my kids enjoyed them again.


And went back for seconds when he thought no one was looking.

And then Sister got the only thing she wanted for her birthday-A WATER GUN!

Which led to this...


Yes, that is a GROWN MAN shooting the kids with a water gun. It's my Uncle Kenny. He was always like a big brother to us when we were little. I was no way surprised when he was the first to pick up the water guns and start filling them up. He is really good at teaching kids things their parents might not want them to know. And, we love him!
So, the birthdays were fun and I am so glad they are over for a while!!!
Oh, 1 more thing...I don't think I said anything about this when it was Bubba's birthday, but I tried to come up with some sort of memento for the kids to have from their birthday each year. So, they have this book...

And every year, I pick a page somewhere in the book and write a little note to them on their birthday. WB does the same. Do y'all have a birthday tradition?

That following Monday was our 7th wedding anniversary. So, we all went out to eat a lot later than we expected because WB was held over at work (happens every time!!) So, we spent some time trying on our "guy-gles."

We went to a local restaurant because Sister wanted to "ride the rhinosaurus"

and decided it would be the last time we would visit that establishment. I will not go into great detail, but we were paid the following compliment by our waiter who we will kindly refer to as Player #2.
"Your son is so cute. He is a boy, right? He's gonna make y'all early grandparents."
Nice.
So, as some of you know that only leaves us with mexican, chinese, mexican, mexican, and chinese to eat if we want to go out close. And since WB will not eat 'nese, you see why we eat at home a lot.
