Birthdays

This year we had our family party for all three boys at once vs. doing three different ones with family.  On their birthday they still got to pick their breakfast, dinner, and had cake.  and of course got a birthday balloon! I usually do a special cake for the kids but it was so hard to come up with something this year for both Ezra and Zephan.  We’ve been watching Star Wars and I was running out of time very quickly!  So, the easiest cake of all came to be:  LIGHT SABERS

We did the cake reveal and stole some cupcakes off the end of each light saber on Ezra’s actual special day.  He chose homemade pizza for his dinner, which we had for lunch because Daddy had to work in the evening.  We played Ticket to Ride and started a 1000 piece puzzle.

After church on Sunday, Oma, Opa, Keisha & Tavis came over for lunch & cupcakes.  All three boys got their birthday gifts.
