Party Hopping

We usually do not have a ton of places to be at on the weekends, but this Saturday was pretty busy as we did some birthday party hopping to celebrate some special people in our lives.

Saturday morning, Davis and I headed to the waterpark in Canton for Cousin Brynn's 6th birthday celebration.  What a great place!  So family oriented and just the right size!  Very cool feature there...you can have a birthday party there and be allowed in the park an hour before anyone else!  Being able to have some rides there "line free" was awesome for Brynn and her friends.  Unfortunately, we could not stay long.  We were back in the car after about 45 minutes to head home, have lunch, and take a quick nap before heading off to the next celebration.

Next stop for the party bus, Papa B's 70th surprise birthday party.  Dee (his wife) did a wonderful job putting it all together for him.  Jared was in charge of A) getting him out of the house on Friday night and Saturday B) getting him to the party on Saturday afternoon.  Everything worked out, he was surprised, and it was a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, Davis had about as much partying as he could stand by 3:15.  So, we had to head out a little early.  Poor little guy, teething and terrible allergies were making him pretty miserable with sad watery eyes and a runny nose (both from teething and allergies).  So combining that with being woken up from an afternoon nap after about 30 minutes, he was ready to head to the house. 

But it was a great time!  We loved being able to see sweet baby Thomas (Jared's brother's son) and Andrew (Dee's daughter's son).  These three will have lots of fun together one day!

Surprise Papa B!

So this is what it must be like to have twins
