More birthday fun!

Saturday we went to my parent's house for a birthday dinner. That's one of our family traditions... the birthday person gets to choose their dinner and cake/dessert for the special day. I chose pork tenderloin and baked sweet potatoes with lemon cake & cream cheese frosting. This year my dad decided he'd bake his FIRST cake for ME! Homemade frosting & all! It was unbelievably delicious. We even got homemade vanilla ice cream to go with it :)

Spending the day with my mom & dad is always so enjoyable. It still kinda feels like home. The kids have a blast and have so much fun. And mom & dad love to spoil them! My dad even has this game he plays with Nolan that he now expects every time we get there. He goes around the house and hides M & Ms so that when Nolan arrives it's a scavenger hunt for candy in each room of the house. Then today they even had a slip & slide set up and a little wading pool for the kids.

Even with the girls, Papa loves to indulge. You can tell here by the "Shutter Shades" (Kanye style) he's willing to fashion for Lauren.

I love my parent's more than anything. I feel so blessed to have them in my life and they would do absolutely ANYTHING for any of us. They're so supportive and kind and a wonderful example for the kids! Thanks, Mom & Dad, for a fabulous day :)
