Agent E's 7th Birthday

Happy Birthday Agent E!  I love how this kid expresses his joy!  In our family, the kids get to open a present at breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  Here is the first in the line up.  He really had his hopes set on this sling shot!

He was thrilled that his brother bought him the next level for his Star Wars Angry Birds application.

Time for some Facetime with Papa (who was at work) while Agent E opens his next gift.

Ed discovered the Pizza Ranch (pizza buffet!) in Champlin and said we HAD to take E there sometime. Pizza is a food group all unto itself according Agent E.   So in lue of a birthday lunch down near Ed's work we headed to "the Ranch" for dinner.  

Here he's trying out gift number three!

Agent E chose a family party this year.  He asked for a Halo cake (thanks to his big brother we had plenty of figures/vehicles for the cause).  So decorations, family, cake, and some presents and we called it a good time.

Shortcake and Grandpa

Shortcake and Grandpa K - Awww! 

Winter Pink

My mom picked this snowsuit out for Shortcake last spring, I love dressing her up in it and think of mom each time.  I'm sure Shortcake was in the middle of hollaring something important to her brothers!

Celebrating Two!

Shortcake got to start her special day out with our tradition of sugar cereal, a lolly from her brother, and a new purse.

Then there was some time to color.

And a tea party!

And then on party day . . . 

Shortcake adores Blue's Clues so we played the Blue's Clues game to find out what Shortcake wanted to do . . . 

. . . which was to open presents of course!

That Auntie J sure knows how to make a very special hat!

Oh the distress of having everyone sing Happy Birthday to you!  

So we blew out the candles together and everything was fine.  I love you my sweet Shortcake!
