Happy Birthday Jim!

Today is Jim's fortysomethingith birthday. He is never all that thrilled with birthday candles - but he indulged his wife and children! You never get too old to be sung to and to make a birthday wish! Jim is an awesome dad and husband and we are very blessed to call him ours! Now you can see where Preston learned to pose for photos! For his big day, he got tickets to watch the Cats play basketball at the Sprint Center tomorrow night. He wanted to take all the boys but Colin has to wrestle so he is only getting to take Preston and Cam. He tried really hard to find the tickets for Tuesday night since the kids don't have school on Wednesday, and Colin would have been able to go then, but had no such luck! Preston is so excited about being included with the big boys! Anyhow Happy Birthday Jim - we love you!
And speaking of included, Quincy was invited to one of her preschool buddy's birthday parties yesterday. She was INVITED! She started in the minute we got up yesterday wanting to know what time I would take her! Sometimes I forget how hard it must be to be on the younger end - she sees everyone else going to stuff and she hardly ever gets included! She had a great time and got a goody bag with a basketball whistle in it! (Next time I will be screening the goody bags more thoroughly!)

We had "Langsgiving" today. It was fun to get to see my family. I even got in a little bit of snuggle time with my new nephew - although Harper is not too thrilled with anyone holding him! Unfortunately, Cam spent the night with a friend last night and came home today not feeling well. Jim stayed with him during mass, but when we got home he was still not good. Jim then volunteered to stay home with him and watch football. It meant that they missed out on turkey dinner, but they seem to have had a good day without the girls trying to change the channel during the big games!

Two days of school for the kids this week and for me too! I am excited to have some time off, even if it means that I will pay for it when I return!
