Tuba's 19th Birthday!

For Tuba's birthday we headed into the big city for some fun! We rode The Ducks! This is an amphibious bus....so we toured the city and then drove right into the lake and then toured the lake. It was SO MUCH FUN!!!!

The trip starts with the option of purchasing these REALLY LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS duck quackers. Ummm....I bought 5 of them. Seriously, what is wrong with me! I was sick of the noise before we got onto the ride. Uh-huh.

I think that Cam wanted to kill me. I wanted to kill me.

Once on the ride the driver dons various crazy hats, blasts fun music, and tells really bad hilarious jokes while giving touristy info.

We sang and danced and hollered....and quacked our hearts out. Tuba LOVED it!!

They took this cute photo of us...so of course I had to buy it. Tourist trap!! I LOVE it!

After our city tour we went out for burgers and fries....Tuba's favorite!

My BIGGEST baby is 19! How on earth did that happen. I don't feel like I've been a mama for that many years. Oh! It's going so fast. My heart!

Happy Birthday Sweet Tuba. You are my sunshine! 

George's Kid Party

This was the first year that George has had a "kid" party. He was REALLY excited! We planned it all out way back in June. Finally when the day came he was so excited!

We had an old fashioned backyard party. We set up the slip and slide, the sprinkler and let the kids go at it. The weather was HOT HOT HOT!! 

George picked this cake....from Pinterest. What was I thinking letting him look at Pinterest?! But, it was delicious! Layers of chocolate cake and confetti cake with ganache poured over the top and finished with sprinkles. 

Then the kids did a piñata. I felt kinda bad watching the kids whack this cute Minion!

And outdoor present opening. Did I mention the day was hot? Oh, swelteringly hot. 

It was a really fun party and George is looking forward to next year already!
