Happy Belated!

Rhett just had a Birthday recently! His Birthday was September 7th.He is now my little 5 year old! We had a little Birthday at the water park with some of his close friends during the weekend. He had pizza and an awesome Buzz Lightyear themed party with awesome cupcakes made by my husband and an awesome cake my husband and I did together. He also had a mini Birthday party on his actual Birthday he wanted hamburgers and picked out a cupcake cake at the store that looked like an icecream cone. Let me tell ya that kid is very spoiled. But when it comes to Birthdays in our family we do like a week celebration. I can't believe my boy is 5 now! Let me tell you a few things about Rhett, the kid loves to joke! Anything can turn into a joke it doesn't even have to make sense it's hilarious to him and that's all that matters. He likes anything green especially dark green but most kids I meet like that color for some reason. Rhett is obsessed with Mario all though he refuses to even try to play the game. He asks his dad to play for him all the time not just Mario but other games on the Wii also. He talks sooo much at this age and tells stories about of course mario! Sometimes I think I might just go crazy if I hear another thing about Mario and all the other characters!! Just recently he's been teaching me letters and makes me write them after he shows me how to do it. lol What a smarty pants!! He has been stubborn all his life so he will argue like no other! I can already tell he is not going to be a push-over when he's older. He'll stand his own ground! I've had an awesome and hard 5 years with him but I love him like crazy! I love my little stink! Happy Birthday Rhett!!

The Lake

Man it's been forever since I've been to the lake! Probably since high school which was like 8 years ago! Lame! Anyway Mikes buddy Russel invited us a couple weeks ago. He had a boat he borrowed from a family member which was awesome! I don't think I've ever been on a boat before this little adventure.. At least not that I can remember.The boys loved it! Boys have no fear I tell ya Rhett was jumping up and down in the front of the boat and Gage was trying to force himself over the ledge as far as he could go. We stopped at a little beach and the boys just went wild with there friends. I forgot to mention the couple we were with had two boys also. When we were leaving Rhett had his little Yoshi toy which he loves and was hanging it over the boat while the boat was moving. Mike and I kept warning him Yoshi was gonna fall and what happened? Yoshi fell in.. It was like a pet he had for years had just died. He screamed and cried and even said he loved Yoshi. This went on for like a good 20 to 30 minutes while riding back to the car in the boat. I think that was the longest I'd been in the sun the whole summer! Yes I'm a whitey.. The lake was super relaxing and I hope to go again soon. We ended up getting another Yoshi and telling Rhett he found his way back home. It was too funny he was really quiet and started to wimper a little bit. I asked why he was sad he said "I'm so happy my Yoshi's back". The cutest thing.. Sorry about my pics I need to figure out how to re-focus my camera. It sucks at the moment!
