Despite the confusion on our social network page, there was no confusion in the house who's birthday it was. June 2nd it was about DAN the MAN! (His family's nickname for him, not mine.) We were still living with Andy & Angela and so they helped join in the birthday fun.
Dan had a couple job interviews that day so I had plenty of time to put things in place to party. I picked up some festive decorations and wrapped his gifts. He knew pizza was on the menu so I sent him out to pick it up since I had too many other birthday celebration items to do.
Here are a few pictures of the festivities:
Dan thought he was super cool to get a free dessert from Domino's for his birthday.
I set him straight though. (If you can't read it his plate says "You are Special Today! (only)")
It was fun to have young nieces and nephews around to help celebrate.
I thought these candles were great but found out they burn super fast. Won't be using them again.
Dan knew most of his gifts, like the shoes he'd been wearing for a couple weeks, but I threw some surprises.
A few days later, 6 to be exact, it was our nephew Trace's 5th birthday. Again pizza was the dinner choice but this time at Chuck E Cheese's. We all headed over to play games and enjoy the food before returning to the house for cake and ice cream.
Jordan's pleased with his performance on that game.
The Birthday Boy!
Dan playing a little arcade style Mario Kart.
Ty & Trace playing one of my favorites, air hockey.
This was played by more than one of us.
Andy & Ty with a little "friendly" competition.
Pokemon's alive and well!
Trace was soooo excited when he saw this gift! It was only a matter of minutes before he was outside riding around the neighborhood.
This became known as the "Birthday Flower." One bloomed on Dan's birthday and, thankfully, the other on Trace's birthday.
