Happy Birthdays

Well we had a successful birthday weekend! For the most part. We wanted to try something new and fun for T's birthday so we ended up going to an indoor water park! It was a lot of fun except that it was a little cold. It was warm inside but the water was just a little too chilly. We ended up only staying for 2 hours and Bug's teeth were chattering almost the entire time.

We also had an incident. We didn't even make it out of the locker room before having a catastrophe. We were there literally five minutes and had just got changed when Bug slipped and fell in the locker room. She kind of fell on the side of her face and even though she got a big fat lip I didn't think she hurt herself that bad. Later though, we realized that her front right tooth had some blood around it and the gums were starting to turn purple. We showed it to the dentist at church this morning and it's not looking very positive. I'll be taking her in tomorrow so we'll know more after that. We're praying that it's not permanently damaged.

Anyway, back to the birthday fun...the water park had a kids area with a 50 gallon bucket that dumped out every now and then. Boo and I were underneath it and I thought that the water would just go around the platform we were under, but apparently 50 gallons has a lot of force and we both got soaked! She didn't really care for that. :)

(you can see K's fat lip in this picture)

"Brr Daddy, it's cold!"

Our favorite thing ended up being the hot tub. :) We put Boo on the edge and let her put her feet in. She loved it! She giggled and splashed happily. You could go under this little door in the hot tub and it connected to an outdoor hot tub in the snow. T and I took turns doing a few of the big slides. They were pretty fun!

After we were done we got dressed and went into the arcade part of the place. T and K played a few of the games.

Ski ball.

The Smash the Spider Game.

The Clown bucket game.

Bowling. Boo tried to get in on this one. :)

After that we left and headed to Target where we ate lunch...yeah I know kind of a weird place to eat but that's one of our fun family things that we do. They actually have really good food for great prices and we like to grab a whole bunch of different stuff and then browse around the store together. We always find good deals to take home. :)

Then we headed to a contractor's store and picked a color for our new roof...very birthdayish I know. :) We mostly did it b/c both girls fell asleep in the car and we wanted to give them a few extra minutes. Toys R Us was our next stop where we bought a few Legos for Daddy and K to play with together, and then we met Grandma and Grandpa at Applebees for dinner. It was a fun day!

Today after church we went out to lunch with Noni and Papa and let the guys open all their presents...or rather the girls opened all their presents for them. :)

We haven't given Daddy our present b/c it didn't come in time. He'll be getting it on Tuesday.

Happy Birthday Daddy and Papa! We love you!

P.S. I'll post a tooth update tomorrow.
