Happy Birthday, Rocky!

It was time to light 14 candles today!

And, we got to light them on Grandma Jo's homemade chocolate cake....a special request by Rocky.

Then...it was time to blow...

...and blow....

...and blow again!

I guess those candles I quickly grabbed at Wal-mart were labeled "magic re-light" and I didn't notice as I was only looking for the right color.  Whoops.  He finally got them blown out, though!

Another traditional morning birthday golf date!

Happy 14th Birthday!
It was a fun day!
I LOVE celebrating birthdays....because I LOVE remembering the day each of my children were born!
The best memories ever!

Twoscore and Four Years Ago.......

.......was a special day.....

....so special, that we had to celebrate with cake....

.....a head massage...

...(a good, deep head massage).....

Happy Birthday, Dear Dad!!!

Happy Birthday, Nacho

A 'dino'-mite boy having a 'dino'-mite day!
We Love You!

Two Cute and Funny!

Coco was excited to eat cake....

...but wasn't quite sure....

...what to think when everyone burst out singing....

...."Happy Birthday to you!"

In fact, she wasn't too happy to receive....

....all that direct attention....

.....and when it was time to blow out the candles......she refused.

But Nacho, always ready to help out in candle blowing....

....offered his assistance right away....

..and took care of one candle for her.  Now, we thought she'd get the idea and blow out the other candle.....

....but she went about it Moe-Style.........snubbing it out with her fingers.
(Don't worry, no appendages were burnt in the process)

Finally, she was able to enjoy the long awaited cake!!!

We captured her special "candle snuffing" on video and the playback (and IRL episode) got LOADS of laughter from her older brothers.

Coco, you are TOO sweet for words.....TWO is fun when it is with you!!!

Happy Birthday, Coco!

Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Coco,
Happy Birthday to you!

We Love You!
