I let the kids make this "tent" yesterday. Then they wanted to bring up a "few" toys to play with in the tent. As you can see a few toys turned into a huge mess. Kate begged me not to take it down, so this mess with live to see another day at least. This weekend was super busy, but fun. Dan turned 32 on Saturday. We also had a ward luau that night. The food was fabulous and later they had Polynesian dancer's come. Dan was called up to shake it with them. He did a good job!
Since the party was Saturday, we celebrated Dan's Birthday on Sunday. I made Dan's favorite dinner; Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and fruit. We invited his parents, and my parents over to eat with us. Then the rest of the family came for some cake and ice cream. It was a little crazy because right when everyone got there the lights went out. We still had the party, we just talked in the dark. Luckily we had a handy dandy emergency preparedness lantern Dan's mom had given to us for Christmas a few years ago!
I made Dan blow out thirty two candles. Even though the cake got a bit waxy, I think that blowing out the number candles is just cheating. He actually did it in one breath, what lung capacity!

Happy birthday Dan! I'm glad you guys could attend the Luau! Thanks for the support. You were a great "hula" dancer.
Holy cow that cake looks AWESOME! I'm so sad I couldn't be there to have a piece (and wish Dan a happy birthday of course). You look fabulous by the way your getting too skinny! And YES you should be blogging even when there is a mess because otherwise a mom would do nothing more than pick up messes all day...some things can wait! Sure miss ya we need to chat sometime soon!
I loved making forts as a kid, and don't worry my mom always let me keep them up for a while. That's what makes you fun!!!
