Still Partying

Yes friends, we are STILL throwing parties around here to celebrate Bubba’s 30th Birthday!  Every year, in the midst of the birthday celebrations for Bubs, there are also 2 other important events going on as well-  my family beach trip and the Member Member golf tournament.  Seeing as how Bubs is not going to miss a tournament and I am not going to miss a beach trip, we usually have to compromise on how birthdaying around here is done- at least for Bubs.  This being an extra special milestone year, I feel as though the partying has been cranked up to another level.  To be honest, I felt a little guilty because the kids were not invited to the festivities the other night but I wanted them to help their Daddy celebrate his 30th – so birthday partying we did again!!  Fortunately, this crowd didn’t seem to mind and it provided an entire day of entertainment so it was a win-win for us all!! 

While Bubs was at work , the kids and I decorated the kitchen.  Okay, really, I asked them if they liked were I was placing the decorations.  Thankfully Sheriff Woody and Cowgirl Barbie were around to aid in the decorating process.

So together, we decorated the house for our special Birthday Daddy!

We spent our time making Bubba’s favorite cupcakes-  lemon with lemon icing.

And we even chose some attire to add to all the festivities!

Finally, in the nick of time, Bess decided to join the party.  Wouldn’t you know it, she could have cared less about decorations , she just wanted to eat a cupcake!

As patiently as 3 toddlers can wait, we “hid” ourselves in the kitchen behind the counter.  Finally…. the birthday boy walked in!

He was presented with his official kid made birthday party hat!

Then the kids presented him with their cards!  Wylie was so excited about her Singing Ariel card!  Charlie has been telling Bubba for a week now, he was going to give him a “Ronnie Car” card that sang.  And Sweet Baby Bess was just as thrilled with her selection of a Dora Card!

Believe it or not, this  party is still not the end for this lucky birthday boy!  While me and the kids set out for our 2nd beach trip of the summer, this Daddy has his family party to attend!  Glad these milestone b’days only come around here and there-  this partying can tire a girl out!!!

So, yet again I conclude by saying… Happy Early B’day Bubs!
