Brekken's Family Party!!!

On July 11th, Brekken's 6th birthday, we had our family party.  Brekken wanted a football themed party!!! Grandma and Grandpa Graff were kind enough to let us use their pool to beat the heat!!! After swimming, Brekken opened up his presents.  He got some really cool presents this year including; a new bike, lots of new school outfits, two pairs of shoes, an MP3 player, a football(of course), transformers, new swimming towel, books, money, remote control cars,a club penguin membership,  a golf putter with balls and a practice hole, and even more toys!!!! What a spoiled kid!!! After that we had root beer floats and cake!! We had a blast swimming and being with family!!!

After swimming, we went and ate at Texas Roadhouse where Brekken rode the horse!!!!  Thanks for such an awesome day Brek, we love you sooo much and more!!!!

We had Karter's family birthday party on Saturday, March 21st.  He had a Skateboarding Theme!!  He is growing up so fast I seriously cannot believe that I have a 9 year old!!  He scored of course with tons of presents including; money, gift cards, skateboarding stuff, clothes, bionicles, DS games, etc.  What a spoiled kid!!  Thanks to everyone who came and helped to make Karter's day special!!!

Traevn's Day!

Okay, so after the friend party we had a couple of hours to get ready for the family party.  Traevn wanted to have a Star Wars Clone Wars birthday so we decorated the house like that for the party.  He received his 7 balloons, his favorite of course being the Yoda balloon.  The guests all arrived, we opened tons of presents, ate Star Wars cake, had yummy sherbet punch, and partied into the night.  Traevn had sooo much and totally scored with presents.  He has been wanting a Nintendo DS and he finally got it, as soon as he opened it he jumped up and down and was so excited!!! He also scored 5 cool games for it, accessories for it, clothes, money, outside play toys, swords, candy, more star wars lego toys, shoes, art supplies, and so much more.  What a spoiled boy!!! He kept saying, "This is my best birthday ever!!"  So cool to make him know how special he is to us and to our family and to celebrate a day all about him!! After the party, we went and ate at where else but Texas Roadhouse!! He proudly got up on the horse and yelled "Yee-Haw"  We love you so much Traevn and glad that we could be a part of your day.  

I forgot to do this on his actual birthday so here goes:
