Kolby's Birthday Party

Kolby and his buddie Josh
We spent Kolby's birthday morning with friends.  Miranda came over with Josh & Cheyenne.  Kolby opened his gift from Nana and put on his dinosaur jammies right away.  He wears them almost every night.  I have to wash them when he takes them off in the morning or I he would be wearing them dirty at night.  He likes to wear them everywhere.  I made him cinnamon rolls and we put a candle in one and sang him happy birthday.  


When Daniel got home he opened his gifts from us and was so excited to get some new legos.  My boys love their legos.  After dinner we went to Daniel's work for a football game.  Kolby and Auston were so excited, they were going to play in the band.  Auston on his clarinet and Kolby on his trumpet.  He doesn't know how to really play, but he sure likes to try.  It is so cute.  I don't have any pics of that, my camera broke.  Before we left I started to make Kolby's "train cake" he was so excited, he had been asking me to make the train cake for 3 months.  I was nervous on how it would turn out. When we got to Daniel's work, a lot of the kids were saying "happy birthday kobly" and kolby would say "thank you" with a big smile on his face.   Before the band walked over to the football game they sang "Happy Birthday" to Kolby.  He was so embarrassed, he started to yell at the kids.  I am not going to lie, I laughed a little.  He was fine after they finished and went on his marry way of being the big birthday boy.

When we got home from the football game, I started icing the cake and putting the fun stuff on it.  I was a little worried on what Kolby would think, it didn't look exactly like the picture he picked out in the magazine.  The next morning I showed it to him and he got so excited he went and got Daddy and brother to show them.  That made my heart melt.  I pleased the only one that mattered, It was his birthday and I wanted it perfect for him.
My infamous Train Cake, LOL!
On the day of his party we went down the hill to San Elijo Hills park, they have a spray zone that Kolby loves to play in.  There is a playground in the sand with a large sun shade over it too.  This is the second year we have had his party there.  He was so happy with all the people that came and the gifts her received.  I was so happy for my little 4 year old birthday boy!

How old are you Kolby?
Thank You to Everyone Who Shared in Kolby's Special Day =)

Home Buying

This is a picture of Kolby with his birthday gift from his Uncle Jimmy & Uncle Nette =)
 
I haven't written in a while.  Why?  I can't tell you that.....  I have been so busy with my friends and my son's 4th birthday and ummm..... Trying to buy a house.  We put in an offer yesterday on a home here in ramona.  We are really excited, our offer is the only one on the table right now.  That makes our chances really good.  We are putting it in God's hands.  I don't need to add any extra stress to my life, I am giving it to HIM!  Thank You LORD to taking it.  Hopefully we will hear back from the agent before the end of the week, Wishful Thinking???? I hope not.  

I have learned a lot so far from this home buying process and know that a lot more knowledge is about to come during the escrow process.   I am so happy to just be given the chance to own a home in california.  I have had a few family members leave california so they would have that chance.  I feel so blessed.  So grateful.  and so Loved.
