Happy Birthday to Darren

It was Darren's 41st birthday today. Took him out for dinner at Pei-Wei's. I hope he enjoyed!

Happy 12th Birthday Bradley

Pics from Bradley's birthday party. After loading up on cupcakes and munchies, an epic nintendo tournament ensued.

Happy Birthday Darren!

Darren turned the big 40 today.

After opening presents with the kids, we celebrated by going to dinner with a group of friends at La Puente. The Mariachi band serenaded Darren with a rendition of Happy Birthday and then Stairway to Heaven by request. We laughed our butts off and had a great time.

Happy Birthday Hubby!

Makenzie's 13th

Our Makenzie is now a teenager - Yikes! She had her party at Sky High (formerly known as Some Dude's Playground). They wore themselves completely out.

I'd say she likes her new straightener.

Wa-hoo

Brad's Birthday Party

We celebrated Brad's 11th birthday today. He decided to have his party at the recrecation center. The kids had a blast on the indoor waterslide and enormous play center. (Bradley loves to go bowling, hence the bowling birthday cake)

The comments that come from 11 year olds are pretty funny. As Brad is opening his presents, Boomer asks Brad - Who is this present from. Brad answers - My mom and Dad. Boomer replies - Oh, don't worry, they know what you like.

Here are some excerpts from the conversation on the way to the recreation center. Rodrigo: Hey, there's an airplane. I'll bet my mom is on that plane. She's coming home from New York today. Boomer: City or State? Brad: Rodrigo, can you quit talking about your mom.
