Last Birthday Party

We had a fun weekend!  On Saturday, Kam and Gi performed at the Globetrotters game and my Sis was the lucky one to take them.  I stayed home with O Man because he was working hard at kicking his virus.  He was already feeling so much better by Saturday afternoon.  On Sunday, his symptoms had almost completely subsided, and he was so happy! 

We had a family party planned to celebrate Owen, Kam and Gigi's birthdays!  Nana with her Bridgey.  My sister said that she'll walk up to her in her swing and say "it's okay.. Mummy's here."  Nana was telling me last night that I was holding her baby and isn't she sweet.  Her memory is going quickly.. some days she recognizes me and calls me her friend.. she isn't sure who we all are or how we belong together, but she just loves us.  I handed her Bridgey and gave her Sophie the Giraffe and she loved squeaking it for the baby.
Gigi and Kam both looked goth at the party... they apparently didn't wash off all their performing eye makeup from the day before.  The girls were outside playing with sidewalk chalk while my Dad and Rog cooked burgers and dogs on the grill. {see owen's purple toes peeking in the pic}
I found a bunch of sand toys in car.. so they were digging to China.  Owen looks so blue in this picture.. I probably shouldn't dress him in so much blue. He was freezing too.  It was cold.. well 60 degrees cold.. it's cold for us.

My pops is rocking his pink cast!!  Last Tuesday after running Gigi to dance, I got a call a few minutes after he dropped her off to tell me.. "I was in a car accident, call mom and tell her not to worry."  His BMW got tore up, his airbag crushed his arm and not a single person stopped to help on one of the busiest intersections.  The other driver walked away okay, my dad refused to go in the ambulance.  I picked him up and his arm was looking gnarly with airbag rash.  We ran to get Gigi at dance and took her home on our way to the hospital.  They confirmed his arm was broken pretty bad and we were home by 10:30pm. Gigi wanted him to get a hot pink cast.. so he did.  Only real men can pull off pink. 
Back to the party... after a delish dinner, we sang Happy Birthday to the silly threesome.. where is Gigi? 
I couldn't resist this picture of Liv.  She was sitting so patiently at the table waiting for her cake. 

The kids opened presents and we called it an early night. It was simple, fun and this officially wraps up the kid's birthday celebrations!!
