Mckay's 5th Birthday!

I think having Mckay's 5th birthday on 09-09-09 is pretty special. I know his Aunt Monica would have some kind of special meaning (ie. extra gifts). Either way, I think he had a pretty great day.
We went to Krispy Kreme for breakfast with his free dozen birhtday donuts. (Breakfast of champions, I know! I'm a good Mom!)


Later he took Dibs Ice Cream bites to preschool for his birthday treat. (After a chaotic trip to Target since his Mom just couldn't get things together no matter HOW hard she tried!)

He got a birthday crown at school too (but his crazy mom didn't get any pictures)!

After dinner, he asked for ice cream sundae's (since we don't really like cake).


He got cards and money from both sides of grandparents as well as an Indiana Jones hat and whip and action figures (his latest obsession!).

He was one rich happy boy!

We had his friends birthday party at McDonald's on Higley and Brown the next weekend. It is my favorite way to have a party. We show up and it's all done for us: food, cake, ice cream, decorations, goody bags! The kids have a blast and my house is still clean afterward! We had the BEST service this time too! Thanks to Megan for the pics, since I still don't have a camera!




Happy 5th Birthay Mckay!

Brayden's 2nd Birthday!

I'm so SAD! My BABY is TWO years old today!! We celebrated with a simple family party at home with gifts, cupcakes and ice cream. Grandma Crockett also sent him an Elmo card in the mail. He had a great day!! It was a bitter-sweet day for me.
