Group Birthday Dinner

We had dinner tonight at our favorite restaurant - our "birthday" restaurant. We didn't go for Flower's and Super's birthdays back in September, and Jelly Bean's birthday is coming up next week, AND we had family in and Grandpa S had a birthday this month, so off we went. It is a Japanese Steak House place where they cook the food in front of you and the kids love that. The first time we went, I figure the kids would have watching the cook, but I didn't think they would eat that type of food. But they all love it.

Happy Birthday Jelly Bean! We love You!

Super Turns 4!

Flower and Super's birthdays are at the end of September, so it is always a week of cake, presents and fun, well, Jelly Bean sometimes doesn't think it is so fun (her birthday isn't until December, which to her, seems like forever)

Anyway, here's some pictures of Super's Day of turning the big 4! (There aren't any pictures of Mom crying because Super is no longer her little baby, but there should be!)

Mom appreciates that he is still excited about getting underwear for a gift!

Super LOVES Fireman Sam!

I told you that Jelly Bean didn't think it quite as much fun

Flower's Birthday

I can hardly believe that my first born child is NINE. She is a joy - well, most of the time anyway.

Here are some pics from the day:

She wanted to go to our new favorite restaurant

Jelly Bean - it was wacky hair day at school so she had pink hairspray in her hair

Super - being himself LOL O.K, maybe a little more wild than usual

Happy Birthday Flower! We love you!
