Big Birthday Boys !!6!!

The attic is getting close to being move-in-ready so that means we can shift furniture around and the boys get their own room! Jamison stayed in the room that they had and Peter moved into the "toy room" or "Keiko's room" The boys were very excited to have dresser space to display their most prized treasures....rocks and jewels. They even have enough dresser drawer space that they each have a special drawer of treasures...more rocks. (man, if that drawer pulls out all the way and crashes on toes that person is not going to be happy. BIRTHDAY PARTY! and that means cake manipulation. Jamison requested a bunny, like the one we had at Easter, but chocolate. This one had to laydown because his legs broke off. Eventually his head broke off also but Jamison did not notice because of all the excitement. I added jellybean poop for the kids. They loved eating the poop. Peter requested an army cake (again). I am still not a fan of army men, so thank goodness to ToyStory3 and Legos, i had to accessorize with Lego men. "Birthday Goers at 5'oclock!'. I know why my mom only let us have 2 parties....they are exhausting!. Pizza making, relay race, scavenger hunt, pinata and a water balloon fight! Who needs a bounce house and those crazy party places.The army cake was declared the "coolest cake ever!" by one of the 6yos. I am pretty proud of myself! Pinata wacking!....rules. #1-backs against the barn #2-each person gets 2 swings #3-wait until we say "go" to scoop up candy. Yes...someone got hit in the head because he broke rules #1 and 3. Fortunately it was my kid.Presents. The boys made a haul! For their actual birthday we had a pretty low key day. Swim lesson, martial arts class, birthday dinner(breakfast for dinner, including yes, you guessed it- BACON) and an ice cream cake! The boys gave each other gifts "Cullen style" in a brown paper bag. At one point during the day Jamison asked "Mom, am I really 6?" yes dear, I cant believe it myself. Happy Birthday Boys!
