2009 Birthday Celebrations

For the first time, the kids decided to have separate birthday celebrations.

On Saturday, February 7th, Presley had a PAJAMA birthday party with some of her friends from her school. The party centered around "P" activities with kids decorating PIGGY banks with PAINT PENS, playing PIN the nose on the clown, playing hot POTATO, giving out PENNIES for prizes, and having a PIRATES of the Caribbean cake. 4 and 5 year olds have lots of energy so Mom and Dad were exhausted at the end. Thanks to Canyon for being a great helper.




On Sunday, February 8th, Canyon took two school friends, Max and Joseph, to his very first Wilds Hockey Game. We started off the day at Punch Pizza. It was an amazing game with the Wild finally winning after an overtime, shoot out, and sudden death shoot off.





Usually we take the kids out for dinner on their actual birthday. However, on Sunday night, after the hockey game (and Canyon's own hockey game), Canyon got a very bad case of stomach flu with a 103 fever. He stayed home from school on his actual birthday and then Presley came down with a bad case of croup. We were finally able to take the kids to their favorite restaurant, Osaka, on Wednesday, with one of Ron's colleagues who was in town. The kids loved the flames, the flying shrimp, and the mask they get to put on their head. The kids are now 5 and 7. Boy does time fly by!

That looks like an awfully big beer in front of Ron! Trish you must have been the designated driver?

Cheers!
