A Party, A Museum, and a Happy Mother's Day!

 A few weeks ago we got invited to a birthday party for a girl in our ward that is in between ages for Oliver and Ruby.  And of course we all know how our kids love a birthday party!!  So they were super excited.  Sadly it had rained the whole day before so the yard was kind of squishy, but the kids didn't seem to mind.  August loved this riding horse.  He spent most of the time petting it's nose and wanting someone to help him on it.
 I just thought this photo was hilarious!!  I mean what a moment to capture!  ha, ha.  It's like someone slipped them both a lemon or something!  Next to Ruby is her little BF here in OK, Kaila.
 Oliver enjoying his gigantic piece of cake!
We have finally been enjoying a little bit of nice weather here in OK.  So the kids have been taking advantage of that and have eaten their dinners outside a few times. 

Hmmmm.....all these pictures seem to involve eating.  We must like to eat around here!  ha, ha

We also went to a museum in OKC a few weekends ago that was pretty fun.  They had a Chihuly exhibit that is permanent.  It was SUPER cool.  I love him.   Not only does he do such beautiful glass work, but he  holds a special place in our hearts because Zack and I went on our first date to see one of his exhibits in SLC during the Olympics. 

Anyway, it was pretty cool, if anyone comes to visit us, we would be happy to take you there to see it! 
 ;)   They were also having a kid craft time, so the kids got to make kites.  You can't really see it much here, but they were pretty fun.
But sadly August got banned from the craft room since there were many MANY things for him to get into.  Beads, glue, scissors, ribbons, buttons, hot glue guns.......you get the picture.  But he did get to run around in the halls a lot while Zack  watched him.  I'm sure the museum people loved that!
 Okay, so I ran across this video.  It is from our trip moving last summer to Oklahoma.  It just sort of sums up their relationship.  Cute and then whap, not so cute.  I just thought it was funny.  I'm sure no one can relate to this at all.  ha, ha, ha

And then these next to videos are for our Moms for Mother's Day. ( I know, this post is getting long, but....) I tried and tried to get them downloaded on the blog on Mother's Day and every day since and it just wouldn't do it.  Then I did the one above and it worked so I thought hey, I'm going to try and get these 2 on as well AND it WORKED!!!  YAY!
So.....
Mom and Candyce, these are 2 Mother's Day songs for you, rather late, but it's the thought that counts as they say!!  (Don't mind the goofiness, that's part of the charm of getting kids to sing to you right?!)
