Birthday Month Festivities

Well Birthday month is pretty much over :( , but here are a few pics of this years celebrations. Since I've joined Dan's family and since the birth of our niece and nephew, our family gets to celebrate 5 birthdays all within about 5 weeks. So I've started calling it Birthday Month!

To start off we have Dan's birthday on September 28th

Then it was my birthday exactly one week later, October 5th.

This year, Dan's parents came up to celebrate our birthdays together. We made a trip to the Portland Art Museum, ate at California Pizza Kitchen, ate delicious chocolate cake from Costco and enjoyed each others company just the 4 of us. As you can see, Dan acquired the always needed art supplies, and other art related gifts. My gifts included The Office Season 5 (hilarious!), Fossil jewelry, a new satiny robe from VS and an amazing new hair dryer. Dan and I also celebrated our birthdays some more by going out for CPK again on my actual birthday.

One week after my birthday, is Dans moms birthday. So we headed to Eagle Point for the

weekend, to celebrate her birthday as well as our nephews (which is this week) and our niece's which is two weeks after. We also celebrated with a faux Thanksgiving dinner because Dan's brother was home on leave from Iraq and won't be here for all the festivities. I also had a delicious breakfast that same morning with my sister, nana and Dad. So we had a pretty busy weekend!

And now birthday month is over..... :( But the holidays will be here soon...

Here are a few pictures of the kids last weekend.

This picture reminds me of the book, Where the Wild Things Are! :)
