US+2sDay The Pumpkin Patch

We have had a busy two weeks since our last post.  These are the highlights:

Mom took Dad out to celebrate his 47th Birthday.

The Wordbird flew into town for business. Shemp and Dad joined him for dinner at Mortons.

Dad and Mom celebrated their 11th anniversary!

We went to the pumpkin patch with Mom, SuperNanny and Baby Julia. We had a blast!

US+2sDay The Birthday Wrap-Up!

On Wednesday Mom had her last birthday in her 30's.   To kick off the day Mr. H fell on his face and broke a front tooth.  He will be ok.  Mom did some therapy by getting a manicure. For dinner we celebrated at the Mellow Mushroom a pizza restaurant. SuperNanny II helped us get cupcakes to celebrate with Mom. Mom opened some gifts and we ate the cupcakes. The next day Grandma and Pepe came to our house to help Mom celebrate.  That evening Uncle Mel, Aunt Heather and Cousin Carter arrived for the celebration. We had a nice family meal followed by gifts. Cousin Carter scored a pair of alligator crocs just like ours! Friday started with a home cooked breakfast, compliments of Aunt Heather. Then we were off to the club for swimming. Cousin Carter sure is brave. He wore out the slide at the pool.  After naps we cleaned up and headed out for a Fiesta at our local Mexican Restaurant. A birthday celebration would not be complete without Sombreros and Tequila. We tried to get in some racing at the gokart track but were rained out. We played in the rain and had a blast. That night we ate Mom's one day old cake. July 4th started with another home cooked meal followed by some fun at the GoKart track. Even Mom and Aunt Heather gave it a whirl. We did some swimming at the pool and then said goodbye to Aunt Heather, Uncle Mel and Cousin Carter. That night we helped Dad cook up the Hamburgers on his Dad's grill. The night went out with a bang as we watched  fireworks. On Sunday we went to church, swam  at the pool and had a picnic lunch. That evening Grandma surprised us with a meal of crab and shrimp.....Yummy!   As you can see Mom does not just have a birthday she has a birth extended weekend! We can't wait to do it again next year when Mom celebrates her first anniversary of her 39th birthday.

US+2sDay A fun couple of Weeks

We have been busy, but we are having fun with all of our activities this summer. We have taken a liking to art, in addition to gym and now swim classes. Today we had our first swim class....pictures to follow next week.  We conspired with SuperNanny II to visit Dad at his office but he went AWOL, so we snuck up on  him at lunch for an early Father's Day surprise. That evening we went over to GrandBoogie's home to celebrate FunUncle's 42nd Birthday. We had fun with our cousins and loved playing with Dad's old toys and eating the ice cream cake.  After 2 months we were raring to go to see Miss Tina (the original SuperNanny) and baby Julia.  We hit it off just like old times. What a blast we had.   Mom and Dad say that Miss Julia is a real cutie.  We think she is quite cool!  We really had a good time. It was fun to visit.  After our visit to Miss Tina's home we were tuckered out, but the fun was not over for the day. We went to dinner and then "Lighting McQueen" (aka Mr H. ) and Dad went go cart racing. They like to go fast. We had a relaxing Fathers day that included church in the morning, swimming and gifts for Dad.  Mr H and Dad got matching swim trunks. We hope you enjoy the photos!

Happy Birthday Common Tater!

70 Candles is a good reason to have a party and put up a post a day early! We love you and hope that this day is special.   Here are a few photos from the little get together that we had on Saturday. To see all of the photos click this link: GrandBoogie's Birthday Bash
