Birthday time again!

Tonight we celebrated AJ's birthday with pizza, cake, ice cream, and of course presents! Ma made him a fabulous Bob and Larry cake, and he got a new VeggieTales movie as well. He also received a couple of Spiderman toys, a new book for his "computer", an activity book, some letter posters, and a very cool helicopter. Click on to see the pictures and a video.

I think we picked the windiest day of the year to visit Lake Mead. It was SO cold, but the kids had a great time anyways. Popa and Ma picked up shells for some crafts back home, and Ray tried to make the birds attack me. Click on to see pictures.
