5 Years Old!

Happy Birthday Blakely and Drew!  Today is their BIG day - they are now 5 years old!!!  They are so excited.  I would have to say this is the first birthday that they have been really, really excited.  So today we thought we had to do something special for their special day since we weren't having their actually birthday party until Friday so we headed bowling and then for some yummy Yogli Mogli (Thanks Papa!).  They had so much fun bowling.  Earlier this summer I had bought a Groupon for like $20 and it included bowling for 2 hours for up to 5 people.  It included shoes as well as a large one topping pizza and a pitcher of drinks.  So it was a deal and they really enjoyed it.  Grandma, Papa, Quinn, Maya, Me, Phillip, Blakely and Drew went.  It was a fun time.  Quinn brought them balloons and lollipops and Phillip brought some cupcakes so they were thrilled.  We all bowled except Papa (Poor Papa - if you didn't hear he had to have a pacemaker put in last week and it is not allowed to do any lifting.  I know he hates all this social computer stuff so I let him tell you about it.)  We all did pretty good but I am sure it was due to the bumper that helped us out.  Even Miss Maya tried her hand at it and did pretty well.  After our bowling was over we headed for some frozen yogurt and it was wonderful.  Now if I just keep them contained until their birthday party Friday.  Until then...
