Mason's 1st Birthday!

October has one straight week of Birthdays! 
We had one CRAZY week! 
My Uncle turned the BIG 50 on Wednesday...My Nephew Mason turned 1 on Thursday and Dominick turned 7 on Friday! October is full of Birthday's in this family! Almost as bad as February! 



Birthday Boy Mason! 



Present Time! 





He LOVED the tissue paper! 



Baseball Toy!!...Had to be from Uncle Dave! 




Cake Time! 



He LOVED everyone singing Happy Birthday 
to him! 




Not too sure he likes this whole cake thing! 




Starting to Love It! 






Daddy got his face pushed into the cake!! 





The aftermath! 



One Sleepy Birthday Boy after a LONG Day! 

Happy 7th Birthday Lil Stud!



On Dominick's actual Birthday, Dave took Dominick and Jaden to Dave and Busters, then came home for Presents and Cake




I'd say someone's Happy!! 



Dominick's Favorite Cake that Aunty Manda got him!! 



Make a Wish and Blow those Candles Out! Here's to another Fantastic Year!!



It's hard to believe it's been 7 years since Dominick was born! I wish time would slow down a few...He's growing up to be quite the little man! I'm so very thankful for him and can't wait to see what life has in store for him! But as of right now...I'm ok with him staying little!! 


And it's PARTY TIME!




This was the Biggest/Craziest Birthday Dominick has ever had! Each year it gets a little bigger...We have a big family as it is...then you add family friends, school friends, and sports friends, and neighbor friends and before you know it you have 25 kids and 50 adults!!! 



I was running around the whole time...We had a jump house in the backyard and the racecar in the front yard! I felt like I was doing laps through the house, out back, down the side yard and into the front...the entire party trying to keep an eye on every kid! 







As crazy as it was, Dominick and all of his friends had a great time! I really loved the theme and thought it all came together pretty well! 




CuppyCakes!! 










I was able to get a picture of each of the kids in the car!! All 25 kids were looking at me and smiling...except Dominick!! 







And that's a Wrap! Thank you for celebrating Dominick's 7th Birthday with us! We had a Blast!!

Back to School

The kids have now completed about half of this School Year! (When I started this post it was the first week of School! I just haven't got around to posting it!) Both are doing Great and Loving School! 





First Day of 2nd Grade!





Nervously waiting in line to meet the teacher!


 


And at this point I was bawling! All the kids were walking into class and after the last one the teacher shut the door! Ok...so your probably thinking what's the big deal?...I felt like we were missing something...every year before this one we've walked him in, took a picture of him at his desk, said our goodbyes and that was it! This year felt so different!


Dominick had a Great First Day and I managed to make it through as well! 


First Day of Preschool!








Emersyn LOVES School! There was no doubt in my mind that she was going to LOVE it! She loves to learn and she's pretty good at it (if I don't say so myself, lol). 







She was so funny..she had Dave, Her Teachers and I cracking up! When we went to pick her up the teachers were telling us she kept calling them Aunty! So when we were leaving she said "By Aunty see  you tomorrow". It took her about a week to call them teacher!
