We had Xavier’s 4th birthday party just two days after we got back from vacation. It’s been quite a busy week after a full 7 days off, and I was just now able to get the pictures up. It was a really great party though, lots of friends showed up and I think we had more little kids at this party than we ever have before. We set up a bunch of water toys and Mark and Stephanie brought a bunch of water balloons to add to the fun. The kids had a great time throwing balloons at each other and the adults, and when it finally came time to give Xavier his power wheel, they all took turns driving them around the yard and racing each other.
As usual, Megan made another awesome cake, despite the time crunch. Xavier wanted a Buzz Lightyear cake, so she made a big planet with an awesome Buzz gum paste figure on top of it.

We just got back from our first family vacation, and now we’re feverishly trying to clean and prep for Xavier’s birthday party (or at least Megan is, since I’m actually uploading pictures and writing a blog post 
). We went to Sarasota, Florida, and it was a blast. I’ll try and get Megan to do a good summary of the whole trip in the next couple of days, but I wanted to at least get the pictures up before Xavier’s party since I’ll have a whole other round of them from that. So here are the pictures from the trip and check back soon for birthday pictures and details.

I’m a little late in getting these up, but it’s that time of year again, the May birthday rush! This year for Ali’s party we had a pixie/enchanted forest themed party, and all the kids that came dressed up as pixies or dragons (just Xavier really ). I think it was probably our most successful birthday bash yet. All the girls looked adorable in their little pixie outfits, and Xavier’s dragon outfit helped keep him from feeling left out.
Of course Megan outdid herself again this year, with what may be her best cake yet. The main part of the cake was a big decaying log, with vines and flowers and all sorts of stuff growing on it to go along with the enchanted forest theme. Then sitting beside the log is the little pixie she made by hand, and it’s all edible!
We decided to get the kids power wheels for their birthdays this year, and so Ali got a pink Barbie Jeep. She’s got quite a ways to go before she really knows what she’s doing, but she loves taking her little Eva doll for rides in it, even if she doesn’t like to use the steering wheel .
Lots of pictures are up in the gallery, so check them out here.
