Fun with Cousins

Mike and Karen invited us over for dinner on Saturday to continue our celebration of Jake's birthday. He got to pick the meal and they had presents for him and Tim.

After bathtime, the kiddos had fun with one of the boxes a present was wrapped in. 

Tim is finally big enough to play WITH his cousin to a certain extent. It is so fun to watch them. I LOVE having Mike and Karen and their family so close!

Jake's Birthday

Thursday was Jake's 26th birthday! We didn't get a chance to do a TON of stuff that day because Jake was on campus from 0800-1830 and then I had a bell choir rehearsal from 1900-2100. 

But I did have this little surprise up my sleeves:

Shelby helped me bake, frost, and pipe 120 cupcakes. (They were mini cupcakes)

We arranged them as the Periodic Table of Cupcakes and brought them in to the Stockroom.

Jake turned 26, so element #26 (Iron) got a special little bit of something.

Tim had fun running around the hallways.

As an awesome birthday surprise, Jake had a telephone interview for one of the jobs he has applied for!
