Boy Birthdays

Yesterday was 'Dads & Doughnuts' at Sand Springs & Kenna was feeling pretty left out. She went upstairs to get dressed and came down looking like this:


I have no idea why, but the goggles made her feel better. And of course, Spencer had to give them a go too:


Thursday was Sean's birthday. We went out to Red Robin with the kids and some friends, and then came back to our house for cake and ice cream. Sean has to have the same cake every year - the german chocolate cake on the bakers german chocolate box.


Today I should have been doing laundry, which I did sort, by the way. But it hasn't made it downstairs yet. The fact that there are 6 buckets full - and another load of reds that is homeless until the first basket is vacant - is just a little bit of a deterrent. Instead I worked on Spencer's birthday presents and watched Harry Potter 1 & 2 with the girls. I am guessing I'll pay for letting them watch the Chamber of Secrets around bedtime tonight, when they complain of huge snakes in their room.

Anyway, Spencer is getting his very own church bag:


It is made out of a place mat ($1 at Big Lot's), ribbon, trim, and iron-on patches.

And his very own tie-fleece. It's not tied yet, but here are the two sides:

Wish I could have gone to dinner with you...would have been fun. We'll have to do it another time. I was at the temple...waiting and waiting to get in the 7 p.m. session, which came and went, and ended up in a super-full 8 p.m. session. It was all worth it, but it would have been fun to hang with you guys too.
