Happy Birthday Daddy & Happy 1st Day at the POOL!

Happy Birthday to our wonderful and awesome daddy!  While this month has been crazy with travels and parties, we did make sure to take the time to celebrate the best daddy and sweetest hubby in the world.  And how do you show just how much you love a guy who doesn't want anything?  Take him to dinner at Babes for fried chicken and then top it all off with Ice Cream Cake!!!  His favs - it was a smashing success.



 

Here are the kids line dancing to the hokey pokey!  Dinner and a show, it doesn't get much better.

Of course you can't blow out candles without a serenade from the cutest four kids you know...


and of course, those cute four kiddos will assist you in your old age in blowing out said candles at the end of the song :-)

We decided to wrap the celebrate up with another super duper exciting activity: THE POOL!  Finally after nine long months of waiting (maybe not patiently waiting but waiting none-the-less), the POOL was open.  Let's just say the smiles on KK and AJ's faces lit up the sky.  I found myself smiling from cheek to cheek just watching them as they dove in and floated in the water.  So simple and yet they found pure bliss in that hour at the pool.





Of course, the party had to come to an end, as all things normally do.  My blissful babies decided to show me and the camera exactly how they felt about having to go home.  Note that no babies were left pouting for long once they were reminded that we were returning the next day for a pool party.



And there is one more baby to add to our pictures - despite my preference that I not be pictured at the pool this summer, baby "Trace" had to be included for documentation purposes:



We will see if Trace gets to join us this pool season or waits until next summer to enjoy the waves!

I also wanted to show our fun little party for Daddy at G-ma's house last week.  All great parties include homemade punch, stirred by two cute grandkids:



The critics say: best punch ever!  G-ma and the gang got daddy a yummy birthday cake and even managed to surprise him with it and some very sweet and thoughtful gifts.  It was awesome getting to celebrate our best guy with the rest of the family before heading home from vacation.


So Happy Birthday sweetheart!  We love you more than words and pictures can show - here is to sharing another year with you that I am sure will be full of fun and laughs!  KK, AJ and I love you bunches & bunches, to the moon and BACK!
