The last of Birthday parties, for now!


Worn out after joint party...like our "Track Hoe" shirts from the party?






Now, that's a BOY cake



Santa, passing out Bells

Their favorite part of the ride, The Treasured "Bell"

THE Polar Express in Palestine in our train PJ's

We had Joint Birthday party for Hudson and Drew for their friends to come to. With all the parties they had last week, I wouldn't have done another one but Hudson has been talking about this "supposed" party with his friends for about a month. So...being the pushover mom, I through a party to together, last minute. Hud wanted to have it at our house. Are you kidding...no way. I can just see 15 wild and crazy kids running through my house, plus their moms, crowded in my living room. Un, uh!! I heard about this party place we now have in Mt. P. I know, can you believe it? It's an enclosed building that has awesome blow up playgrounds. With it being freezing outside, I decided this would be the perfect solution. I have learned one thing about kids birthday parties; all they want to do is run, play and be silly. No need to plan any activities.

We had a great turn out for the party and the boys had a blast. Everyone said it was such a great place and I said "Fabulous, just meet us here this time next year and we'll do it again." No thinking or stressing about birthday locations next year!

Oh, for their birthday, Brian and I got them a Polar Express Train set that will fit on their Thomas the Train track and table. They were so excited and both took their train to bed!! That's when I know it's a success; it can't even be parted with for the night!!
OH, and we took them to ride the Polar Express in Palestine on Friday. They had hot chocolate and cookies, sang Christmas songs and got a visit from Santa. Other than it being frigid, it was a great time for all!
