Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

Ok, so Dan's birthday is on the 19th. The day of, he took the day off work and we spent the day playing together and just relaxing. We walked around the pet store with the kids and laughed as they got excited over every animal they saw. Then we spent the afternoon playing together and making daddy's cake. Finally we had a few friends over that evening for cake and Ice Cream. Dan and Eileen tried to make a pinata together for the kids to whack at during the party. They had a rough start of it, because they couldn't get it to dry, but eventually they just used it with its one layer of paper mache and it worked since most of the kids were under 8. They played with water balloons and just had lots of fun!

Saturday we celebrated again with my parents by spending the morning on the boat. Dan, Eileen and my dad were the only ones brave enough to get in the cold water. Dan took Anna and Aaron out in the tube (which was ok with Anna because she wasn't actually 'in' the water)

Today we got a new Bishop, since the old one got called into the Stake Presidency. It was a really neat experience and a great Sacrement Meeting....I just wish I could have heard some of it.... I think that we are the ward joke now. Today during the Sacrement, Anna and Aaron bonked heads pretty good and started crying loudly. After about 10 seconds Dan and I couldn't get them calmed down. We exchanged glances, picked up all 3 kids and walked out. Everyone in the ward (ourselves, the Stake Presidency and the Bishopbric included) were trying VERY hard not to laugh out loud. We were quite a sight. Me with a girl in each arm and Dan with Aaron.
