Not only did school start a few weeks ago, but during the first full week of school we celebrated 3 birthdays! I told Kevin that this week may be the death of me for the next 14 years! We were all tired because school started and excited because there were birthdays to celebrate. It was a fun but long week. I think everyone was celebrated well.

 On their birthday, Brooklyn and Hudson woke up to balloons in the family room and two small presents from us.

Later that day we got the house and yard ready for their little birthday party. It was really more of a playdate with cupcakes and presents. It was my goal to invite kids their age so we had a fun mix of kids and moms who don't normally all hang out together. It was a beautiful morning so we played outside most of the time. We had 4 girls and 3 boys. Days before their birthday H and B were arguing because Huds wanted to invite girls to his party but Brooky said girls could only come to her party;) So fun to listen to their conversations.

We had Superman/Hello Kitty cupcakes. Kara also made adorable superhero masks for all the kids that I forgot to get pictures of. She make yellow and red for the boys and pink and purple for the girls....super cute!

Hudson and friend Talen. They looked like twins that day!

Here's what an awesome mom I am. The lighter ran out of fuel when I went to light the candles, so we sang to each of the kids individually and then they pretended to "blow out" their candles. I'm pretty sure this is the only year I'll get away with that one!

 YUMMY cupcakes. Pretty much the only reason kids like birthday parties right?

Hudson loved his transformer motorcycle.

The kids had never had a birthday party so they never had so many gifts at once. They were perfectly happy with their first gifts and wondered why they had more to open:) Thanks friends for totally spoiling us!
