Isaac's Day...

Thursday was Isaac's actual birthday, so I thought it would be fun to come home to balloons and a little festive decorations! He's really into Beyblades this year so I printed a couple of images and changed out the cars ones!  

 Grandma & Grandpa joined us for his favorite dinner and we save a few presents to open on his actual birthday!
 I think Madi wanted that!


Boys Birthdays!

Here we are with Jon's side celebrating the Boys!  Isaac, Elliot and Austin all have birthdays within 4 days of each other. I decided to make cookies for the boys this year.  I did lightning bolts for McQueen boy...and Beyblade cookies for Isaac!  


 He thought it was cool the presents were higher than him!
 Isaac loving his Michigan gear!

 I love this shot. Helmet, slippers, jami pants, jersey and pillow pet!  He is so ready for bed!!!

Cars Birthday!

So every 4 years the kids get a birthday party with friends. When I asked Elliot who he wanted to invite...he listed all his cousins!  So we decided to just combine his "Cars" party with a few friends and my side of the family. Boy do I love birthdays!  A friend of mine helped me put together his cake! I just love how this turned out and Elliot was even more thrilled!  Of course he wanted a Cars theme...so that made it fun!
 Before the party we let the boys open some gifts from us.
 He wanted to make sure Clifford could see the cars!
 Isaac pretty excited about a new Lego set.
 Putting together the new set with Dad!
 Playing with his new play doh set!
 Can you tell he's excited for the party to start! I thought it would be fun to hang some balloons for color!
 A few fun decorations.
 He really got a kick out of the cars photos in our frames. 

 A little gasoline to drink (okay...really apple juice!)
The happy Birthday boy!
 Cousins!
 A little bit of chocolate on his face.
 The crew!  I have never seen so many kids sit so quiet while he opened the presents! Amazing!

 After Elliot's party my family hung around and we then celebrated Isaac. He was so excited to get a Beyblade Arena!
 His Beyblade Brownies!  
 I just couldn't resist this picture.  I'd like to title it - chick magnet!  
 Everyone crashing at the end of the night with some Beyblade Cartoons!

Valentines Parties!

Here we are in Elliot's class for his party!  
 Excited to dig in! He's just so happy all the time!

 We brought a few friends along to the party!
 Here is one at Madi's. I helped plan it so I really didn't take pictures. Here they are at the Ice Cream Sunday Bar! Yum!

Just hanging out!

Check out my boys!  Elliot had his cars all lined up ready for bed.
 This guys all ready for sleep!  
One day Isaac was home sick from school and I found the boys all snuggled up together on the couch! Loved it!

Michigan's Birthday

Madi's class at school celebrated Michigan's birthday in January. They got all these different foods that come from Michigan and gave the kids a sampling!  

 Madi with her friends!

Upward Basketball

Isaac was all excited to try another year of Upward Basketball. Here he is getting ready to play!


 He really cracks me up to watch him play. I honestly think he just likes chasing his guy and playing defense. He just bounces like Tigger around the court defending his man...



 Getting snack after the game.
the team!
