Two Birthdays to remember.

This was the first year that our boys had two parties made extra special because all the grandparents were able to be there for both of them. We celebrated their actual birthday with Matt's side of the family and the next day with my side.

This year it was so much fun because they boys had been talking about it for days and even singing happy birthday to each other. They received wonderful presents from cousins, grandparents, and aunts and uncles.

They best part was surprising them with tickets to a real Aggie basketball game the night of their actual birthday. Believe it or not, even at their young age they were very excited and even asked to see the tickets for proof that we actually had them.

Little Daniel was center of attention doing all of the Aggie cheers. He was so into the game he wouldn't even leave for a few minutes so we could go get him a treat. It was so fun to see, and I could tell Matt was a very proud daddy watching his boys cheer for the Aggie's.

Our present to the boys was a basketball hoop. They have not stopped playing with it. Cute Nathan eats, drinks, and sleeps basketball. It is what he does with every waking moment. The boys are even asking for basketball games to watch on t.v.

This has been the most fun age. I can't believe how much they have changed and grown up in just three short years. I am so blessed to be their mommy. I don't know what we would do without these two little munchkins!! Oh, and yeas they LOVED their train cakes. Which made me very happy because despite how they look they really were quite time consuming.
It's not easy getting a picture of four three year old cousins.




I swear this kid is going to be a natural guitar player.

Looks like Daniel has the guitar down! Such handsome boys! They have already grown up a lot since I saw them last. Great job on the train cakes. That looks like a lot of work. I'm going to attempt some kind of cake decorating for Jonah's b-day this weekend. We'll see how it all turns out. Glad the boys had a fun birthday! We miss you guys!
