Gk's Birthday.. Continued!

The day efter Gk/s birthday is Pioneer day, so we thought we'd celebrate a little more. We went to the V.I. for dinner (Thant's lingo for Village Inn). We went up Butterfield canyon to try to find the caves which we couldn't find but we had a nice drive anyway!

Then we went to a little park... it was kinda scary and really pretty hot. So we went home to play with our new birthday presents!! We tried out the pool, the slip & slide, the aquadoodle, the car, and GK got to go for a motorcycle ride with Daddy!

We finished the night off with a Drive-In movie!! I love going there! We went with Brandon and Jenn and they have a 12 passenger van that was perfect!! We took out the back seat so we had nice comfy seats. All the kids fell asleep and we got to eat Jenn's yuumy caramel popcoorn! We saw Cars 2 and I thought Gk would watch more of the movie but it's kinda hard when there is so much going on. I think everyone had a fun day! We are so happy that Gk is a part of our family. I don't know how we got so lucky!

Gk's 3rd birthday party!

Gk is so lucky to have his birthday over the 24th of July weekend! At least in Utah.

We had a party for him at home. It was kind of a Car's theme but really he's all boy so anything goes! He was such a good helper for the party. He wanted in on all the action.

It was really just family and Jennah (you know Jenn & Brandon). Gk got spoiled again!! He got SO many presents and we had a pinata.

Now this little boy LOVES birthdays.. and it's not for the presents. He really likes some birthday cake. He loves the candles and the singing but most of all the birthday person gets to take a bite out of the cake! If it's your birthday watch out, he'll bite it for ya! We thought he'd be more into the cake but with everyone there he was a little shy... it wasn't until he thought he was alone that he really went to town on that thing.

(Oh and Nerds aren't a great idea with frosting...)

I just love this picture... What is having too many swords in your underpants?

This kid couldn't be any happier!
