Grant finally gets a party!

So I've been feeling very guilty because Grant has never had a birthday party with friends, whereas Andrew has had one every year.  I don't mean to seem like I'm playing favorites, Grant's birthday has just been at a chaotic time the past coupe of years.  Anyway, it was a month late, but we finally had a party for him today.  He picked Cars invitations, a Mickey cake, and a star shaped pinata. :)  The original plan was to do the party at the pool, but because of the weather lately the pool was nasty and closed.  So, we moved the party to the house...thank goodness for an awesome sandbox, a hose, and water balloons.  Grant had a blast, thanks to those who came!

Go Grant!

Andrew gets really into it...

Grant's cake...you can tell one of the kids stuck their finger in it right next to Donald. :)  I am still battling with my Cricut Cake, but I will be victorious one day!

Look at that cheesy grin!  Goodness, I love this kid.

Very focused on opening that present....

Grant's awesome boat...he's enjoying this whole present thing!

Love his expression...he's really excited to see that he got a r/c Mater.

At least he was paying attention...

So today in church, the speaker mentioned Nauvoo.  Andrew got all excited and said "Naboo?!?!"  Apparently we focus too much on Star Wars and not enough on church history...


Not five minutes later, the speaker was talking to the children about cleaning their rooms (thereby helping to create a calm, clean home so that you can feel the spirit)...Andrew turned to me and said (quite loudly) "You need to teach us how to clean our room!" 


I'm so glad he was listening!

And for a bit of Grant cuteness...he'll go up to John, look confused and say "Why are you smiling daddy?"  He also has a tendency to call me daddy and John momma.  Love my boys!
