Happy Birthday Micah

Happy 8th Birthday to Micah (9-27-08)!  We celebrated his birthday at Ocean Park Beach with a Minion theme. The kids had a great time playing near the water but the highlight of the party was the Minion water bottles full of Minion pez and whoopee cushions that the kids had to find.  I can't believe Micah turned 8... where has the time gone???

New retainer

Noah officially received his new retainer today. He chose a funky tie dye color. How long will he have to wear this retainer???

Building character

The kids washed cars just like my siblings and I did when we were kids. They enjoyed scrubbing the cars, getting wet, and playing with the soap.  They did a pretty good job and the neighbors were asking them to wash their cars too!  I wonder if they should start their own business???

Micah's turning 8

  Micah is turning 8 in a few weeks.  We asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday and he chose to celebrate it the same way he has for the past few years.  He wanted a Minion theme with the same type of food and the same invite list (he's pretty consistent).  One thing  I love about his birthday list is that he invites kids that he went to preschool with that he has not seen in a long while, so its nice when we see his old friends.  What will we hide in the sand this time???

Ukelele

Micah has now started learning the ukulele.  His teacher, Ms. Yolanda, teaches him piano and ukulele.  Micah is enjoying the new challenge although he says his fingers hurt. I wonder if he will be playing this on the beaches of Hawaii when he is older... nice dream wouldn't you say???
