family ties...

moving right along and lest we NOT forget our Mimi, who also shares charlie's birthday....

Happy Birthday to mimi & charlie.

 yes, that would be a scooter INSIDE.

 and a requested "camping" cake... cutest thing ever and my jeans DO NOT thank olexas for cake all day everyday this past week....yum!!!

And God Bless "faye" at american cookie company.... she ended up pulling through for us but goodness gracious, the tent cookies for the class stumped her and the request for a "FALL" birthday cake for our Mimi nearly sent her into cardiac arrest.... Luckily i had the boys WITH me when i picked them all up and she was so frazzled she gave us 4 extras.  Thanks Miss Faye and we promise to stay away for a couple weeks!!!!

 i was super busy hence the thrown together paper products....very NOT like me... very not matching the fall and camping theme we had going on.... and VERY OVER IT by this point!!!!  enjoy.

Mimi surprised the boys with treats from her recent travels.  Perfect and more perfect. thank you mimi.

and so that concludes are birthday events for our biggest baby.... Next up the requested LEGO sets that almost put me OR SOMEONE NEAR ME 6 feet under.... 

Dear Santa,

don't you dare bring us ANY legos even if they are on our list.

thanks,

 and yes, i most likely will have a change of heart with some time.
