birthday...dancing...derby??

It has been a bit since our last post...but much is abound.
Mom celebrated her birthday and was surprised several times by her wonderful husband and fabulous friends! Here Dylan is taking on the opening present job for mom...

...and just LOVES the new necklace! So does mom...who has been eying this piece for a while now!

The weather is turning nicer...not so many rainy days. We headed out to some lunchtime music with friends and Cole got a hold of the camera and took a bunch of pictures...
Here is one of our bag...my newest sewing project (not a great shot of what the bag looks like but you notice it carries the important items like chips and sunscreen!)

The light post.

Cole's self portrait.
Dylan in the mean time was boogieing down to the music!
Random shot during the week of mom in stripes with son in stripes.
The best part of the birthday celebrations was going out with a bunch of friends to a roller derby bout. A few of us dressed up for the occasion!
Oh yeah! We're tough all right!
After the 'bout' we headed out to a martini bar for food and drinks...and as you can tell we changed into our martini bar attire. Not a bad way to bring in mom's 36th year!! I can't wait for our next adventure!
To top off this week Aunt Lesley came for a visit while Daddy was away on a work trip. Let me just say LIFE SAVER!! or shall I really say MOM SAVER!! It was so great to have the extra help and the boys had so much fun!! Thanks so much for visiting us Auntie Lesley!!! We can't wait until next time.
