Happy Birthday Boys!

I thought that after the trek my life would slow down some, but it seems busier than ever. Last week we celebrated two birthdays. Nathan turned four and Gary turned...well let's just say he got a year older.
After I finished decorating his cake he wanted to take a picture. I know there are more than four candles on the cake but we decided the race track needed lights.
After he blew out the candles he asked if he could race the cars. Of course he is the last child so I said "whatever you want cutie".

This is one of his favorite presents, a Lightning McQueen hat from his brothers and sisters. You'd think he would outgrow his Cars obsession by now but he still loves them more than ever.

And then here is my other birthday boy. I can't believe he is getting so old. We celebrated our 14th anniversary a few weeks ago. Have we really been married that long? Seems like yesterday we were footloose and child free. I can definately say it's been a long road, but also a very happy one.
I also have to give a shout out to Nathan's birthday buddy, Michael. Hope your finals are going well. Can't wait to see you and your family.

Great cakes:) Michelle, it is time to add Facebook to your life! It's so much easier to write notes:) No pressure! hahaha I need your email address. Also, I was at the outlets today. J Crew has some great clothes:) Bermuda shorts and capri's. I didn't buy anything due to the fact I'm on a serious journey to weightloss (at least I hope) but I will once I start slimming down:) I'm sharing because I think they are your style:) I really miss our shopping days!
