WBW ~ A Birthday Bash

OK..so it's not WAY back, but it is a bit late. Sean and Owen turned 3 on Nov 4. We had their birthday party a few weekends ago.

We had a Public Safety Theme (which matched their Halloween theme as well). I want to start by saying a BIG THANK YOU to your local Police Dept. They sent out two officers to talk to the kids and let them sit in their cars. They were able to sit in the cars and push buttons for the horns, sirens, etc. We were the talk of the 'hood.

However, I will say that the boys wanted nothing to do with the officers. Oh well, everyone else had a great time with them.

Thanks again to my sister for doing the cakes. We loved them!

They both blew out their own candles this year and wanted to do it again.


STRONG!

Don't forget to head over to Twinfatuation to see who is playing this week.

Whatcha Gonna Do? Kids Get Cancer Too

15 Months....
It's all it took.
15 months to change my life forever.
15 months to change my friend Jess' life.
FOREVER.
Just fifteen months ago, Tuesday was a healthy little toddler just enjoying life with her twin sister, Piper. She was a precocious little girl who tormented her brothers and made them laugh with her silly, infectious giggle and she was the apple of her parents' eyes.
And then she was diagnosed and life changed....
Life was cancer.
Every.day.
Cancer.
Painful.
Horrible.
Pitiful.
EVERY DAY.
Until she was gone....
And now, 15 months later, her parents struggle. Her brothers struggle. Her twin sister struggles.
To get beyond cancer.

They want people to know the truth. About cancer.
Whatcha Gonna Do?

And, I am honored to share their truth...







The truth is...cancer sucks.
It's not pretty. It's not smiles. It's awful.
Plain old awful.

Now, what are you going to do?

WBWW ~ Walk for JD

I am walking to raise money for Juvenile Diabetes.

JD, the son of a friend of mine was diagnosed with Type 1, Juvenile Diabetes, in January 2005. Since then his family has walked in the annual Walk to Cure Diabetes. I have walked 3 of the 4 times (I have a good excuse to miss the one, I was 7.5 months pregnant... with Twins.)

Well, guess what? It's that time of year again when we gear up for the JDRF annual Walk to Cure Diabeteshis diabetes. He is insulin dependent and has been on pump therapy for 4 years and it hasn't slowed him down a bit. He has continued to participate in gymnastics, soccer and baseball. JD was even able to attend golf camp and spend a week with his grandparents this summer. Along with his family, I am dedicated to helping find a cure for JD and the best way is through the annual walk. Since his diagnosis in 2005, JD has made great strides in controlling alk. Last year our team, JD's All-Stars, increased and we were able to exceed our team goal! This year, we would like to at least match that amount of $3000!! You can join the effort by clicking here and sending a tax deductible donation via credit card. I also have the button on the right of my blog. I have set my personal goal at $100.00

Here are a couple pictures of JD and Delaney

Just Plain GROSS

Debi's family arrived late Wednesday night. The 4 little ones took no time at all to warm up to each other and play like they have been friends for ever.

After dinner, the kids ate their nasty treats that Debi and I got them while we were out at the grocery store.

What did you guys think of dessert?

Check out some pics of dinner and yummy desserts over at Debi's blog :)

PS...obviously Debi has been working her scrapbooking magic on my Blog! lol Thanks!
