Birthday Girl's party in a weekend of fun

 We had one of those running weekends again.  Like every weekend.  Cameron wrestled in a tournament in Silver Lake.  He pinned his first 2 opponents which put him into the championship round.  Which I though was awesome.  Any other day, he would have thought so too.  On this day however, he had a ticket to the Kansas State football game with kickoff being at 2:30.  Had he lost earlier, he would have seen the kickoff.  As it was, I got him there before half time.  I have to admit I was more than a little amused with watching him pace around and wait.  They finally announced they would do the championship matches, only after they decided to take a break!  He was not a happy kid!  He did wrestle well, and I am proud of him for not ditching his wrestling team when something he would have liked to do more came along.  He ended up with 2nd place.
The game was made more fun by Uncle Jay coming in from Indiana.  We are always very happy to see him!  He has a tendency to get the kids all riled up and teach them (more) inappropriate stuff.  It was an awesome, short visit.  Jay is one of a few people who voluntarily spends the night in our chaos!
 Sunday we had a birthday party for Saige.  She has figured out this birthday gig - cake and gifts - what more can a girl ask for!

 We had Mexican food, so it seemed like a good idea to have a pinata as well.  Saige seemed a little worried about them beating on her friend...




 Until she discovered there were treasures hidden in that monkey - then she could have cared less about him!
 It did not take her long to jump in with the big guys and get her share!


I think she had a good time.  As I was rocking her to sleep last night I told her this week is daddy's birthday.  She sat right up and said "no - MINE"  yes, we have figured out what being 2 is all about already!
