Since we were out of town on Kaden's actually birthday we had a celebration after we got home.

Kaden had his friends, Blake and Michael over for pizza to celebrate his birthday!

 Then we went to iJump!

They played dodgball

Dodgeball was Mia's favortie part :)

This past Saturday Kaden and I played hooky from soccer- I normally don't miss a game but I saw a special chance at spending some quality time with Kaden when I found out Barnes and Noble was having a "Star Wars Reads" day. Now that Kaden is getting older and into lots of other things and always at his friends' houses I am especially interested in finding ways to connect with him (and if it reinforces how fun reading can be then that's even better!) So here are some fun pictures from that day- he even went shopping with me for some shirts after and helped me pick one out :) He is such a good son!

Browsing books

Kaden took this photo from below- so I look like a giant! (And look at my baggy eyes- I worked all night the night before so that's me on 4 hrs of sleep :)

Ready for story time

With R2 he was so cute and made noises too

The cute group of kids

Darth Vader was fantastic

He wanted me to go with him- I think he was a little wary of the clone trooper ;)

Ok I JUST noticed Anakin is missing his left hand LOL!

Love his face here :)

The kids loved giving Ty his birthday presents!

Tyler and I had good birthdays this year- it was my last 20's birthday :( I got to go to a girl's night out the night before, then on the day I got to go to Red Robin and Tyler made me a chocolate cake!

Tyler had a good one too- we made yummy teriyaki chicken and then he had a banana cream pie!

The kids ran a 1 mile race last weekend- it was their first ever and they had fun!

Ready for the start!

Mia running- she actually spent most of the race on my back but at the end she got so excited and ran as fast as she could. (And yes, we were dead last :)

Here's Kyson running- he said his "robot" legs were broken so he had to use his own- he did great!
