Pokeball Cupcakes



Lucario Cake

Last Saturday we celebrated Gavin's big 1-0 birthday. Gavin changed his mind....Oh about 50 times as to what kind of party he wanted and who all he wanted to invite. So we decided to go with a cookout at the house and then planned to take Gavin and the girls to do whatever he decided he felt like doing that afternoon. Gavin's theme was Pokemon, which he is very into right now and Danny's daughter Katdy made Gavin the coolest cake with a Lucario design (don't worry, I had no idea what that was either) and then cup cakes that looked like Pokeballs. Both were a huge success & very delicious.  The day started out as a rainy day dashing the plans for water balloons and swimming however the weather did finally clear up & everyone had a great time.  He had a few boys come over & the majority of the time was spent battling out various games on the wii. This suited Gavin just fine. Gavin's menu choice for the day was burgers & chips...no complaints there! Gavin did really well and his friends ended up staying thru the afternoon. When the rain relented the mini people went over to Aunt Jessica's for some swimming time with freinds followed by a little more video game fun. Though there were a few stressful moments, Gavin had a really good time when it was all said and done. He even really bonded with one of the boys who was able to come and is hoping they will end up in the same 3rd grade class next year. It's been a rough past few weeks for Gavin, so I was very happy see smiles! Gavin got some very cool gifts including a slew of Pokemon items, a foam water sword kit, a new Wii game & some $ and gift cards.

Genius.

We still owe Annabelle 2 more AR trips so yesterday I thought I'd escape the "hurricane" madness of Pensacola and cross one off our list. We decided to give Auntie Jenny a visit in her new apartment in Mobile (AU Pharmacy Program...GO JEN!) and let her show us around for a while. We drove around campus for a bit and grabbed lunch at Hero's, which is close to her apartment. It has a very "college" feel to it, and Annabelle felt very "cool" to be out with the ladies. After lunch we headed over to the Explorium to waste away the rest of the afternoon. I love the Explorium, because they change their main exhibits our pretty regularly, so no 2 times are ever the same. Plus, it actually attempts to help the kids LEARN something while they're playing....vs just running around like mad heathens.  Annabelle really liked the kid science area & the "matter" exhibit they have. Especially the soap bubble cloud maker. The poor worker re...

Fish Tale

By
After feeding and watering the dogs for 6 weeks, Annabelle earned herself a fish today! After much debate at Petsmart, she decided on a pink "dragon scaled" beta & a mermaid themed tank. She has named him Poseidon (we're a bit into Percy Jackson right now...for better or worse) though I personally pushed for King Tritian (I mean HELLO it's a mermaid tank!!). She could not wait to get home and get it all set up. Because we (I) underestimated how big the tank we selected is, we set it up in the girls room...as there is no where else to put it. He has lots, and lots of pink decorations...so hopefully he's not too much of a manly man fish.

Carolers

By
The girls Brownie troop went Christmas Caroling this weekend at University Pines Retirement Community. They were absolutely precious. Words cannot express the cuteness overload. Several local troops were there and they sang for about half an hour. The girls have been practicing their songs for weeks, and they did spectacularly. The adorable retiree's gave them rave reviews and they were stopped by several people asking them to come back next year.  Could they be any cuter? When we got home, we thought it only seemed fair to get the dogs in the spirit too..... Kingsley the Great Bayleigh the Princess
