Happy Birthday Brent!!

Today was Brent's 29th birthday! We didn't get to do all that much, although yesterday he had a great time going to several stores to price yard equipment. Today we drove by the house, but someone was working inside so we didn't disturb them. We also made a bunch of cupcakes and decorated them together. I made the actual cakes, Brent frosted them and Mariska was the sprinkle girl. She also loved blowing out candles. We aren't sure what Brent is getting for his birthday yet, he's still debating between a wieght bench or a bbq grill.

It's so fun to take video without Brent knowing. People always talk about how quiet Brent is, here's a little glimps into reality...

Hahaha...the sprinkles thing was pretty funny.

Happy Birthday Brent!

It's funny that his two choices for a birthday present would be a weight bench and an anti-weight bench.

Me, I'd go with the grill. It'd get used more.

I know... that's what he keeps debating, "one will make me less fat, one will make me more fat, but be more fun". I'm staying out of it and leaving it to him!

Happy birthday, Brent! I say go for the grill - it will actually be healthier than cooking meat in the pan, since the fat won't pool around it. You can also grill veggies and fruit. See? Healthy!

Can anyone say "The Parent Trap"?

Happy B-day, Brent. I say totally go for the grill. You can get the exercise with all of that yard work you want to do!

I know!!! Her hair looks just like the Parent Trap girl! I made the mistake of saying, "hold still, I know it's itchy" while I was cutting it and that of course caused her to start wiggling and scratching her back... so I just gave up and hacked away, it'll grow back!

Happy Birthday too! We miss you guys. I guess a Christmas trip is outta the question with the baby coming huh? :( Excited to see her/him in pictures though!

unfortunatly yes, we won't be coming for Christmas... we're hoping to maybe pull of a summer trip next summer and make it to Christmas 2009, we'll see how it goes!

I was so confused about the Parent Trap thing. That's funny...and cute. I think you did a good job.
