Best Shot Birthday Monday

Crazy weekend. Partly because it was Chance's birthday. I'm waiting to throw his party until he's been at school for a couple weeks. But to celebrate the actual Day Of Turning Seven, we headed to the Rainforest Cafe downtown. Pictures can make everything look so darn perfect, so I'll go ahead and throw in the tidbit that (since neither one of us pay much attention to local news) we didn't know they'd closed down the freeway (again). Took us over an hour to get there. But it was fun once we made it.

Chance found a vent in the street that kept blowing his shirt out. This is my Best Shot Monday. Check out the rest at Picture This.

Which one of these kids is doing her own thing? Come on, can you tell which one?

The wildlife looked a little too real for Emily.

As you can see, they make a big deal out of birthdays there. The kids LOVED it.

Chance listening to "happy birthday" messages from family (that is too far away).

Happy birthday sweetie. Our big boy starts First grade today. We are incredibly proud. And I am incredibly loving the idea of having a routine back.

For all the kids starting today, this is what my mom said to us every morning on the way out the door, "God bless you, angels walk with you, and don't forget your lunch." 

Also, Kal's re-design prompted the need for an impromptu candy shoot. Now it looks like Halloween in my kitchen and I don't need it. Do you want it? First person to guess what number I'm thinking of, gets it. Come on can you tell which one?   :0)

Those are all such great shots - what a great way to spend a birthday! But I agree with your best shot choice - that is hilarious!
