joe 6th b-day (september 2016)

We started off the month with this super fun kid's 6th b-day! How is it possible that he could already be so old, you ask? I have NO idea!! The good news is that he's still our sweet, affectionate, silly, fun-loving youngest child. He's a constant reminder to all of us of the beauty of innocence and we are so grateful to have him in our family. 

McDonald's lunch date 
(his favorite place to eat out;). 


Family B-day party.

We were happy to have Auntie Jill, G-ma Loo, and the cousins over!!

James and Jill chillin' together:-). 

Mae was amazing and planned a fun Pokemon Party for her little bro. 

Complete with pokemon labeled food: Squirtle Spit, Charmeleon Chips, etc. ... 

Pin the tail on Pikachu ...

And some charades-type game (can't remember what she called it) where we had to act out a certain Pokemon and try to make the right sound. Definitely amusing since many of us really don't know anything about Pokemon characters. 
Joseph thought it was awesome!!

She had also prepared a saran wrap ball for us to have fun with. Never heard of one? Basically lots of candy/prizes folded into layers and layers of saran wrap. Everyone gets a quick turn to unwrap (and claim the bounty) as it's passed around the circle. 

Then we enjoyed some presents!

Angry Birds game, Captain America costume ... 


Ninja weapons, Star Wars pillow book ...

New Star Wars back-pack/lunch box for kindergarten, and the crazy Pie Face game!!

We were all pretty excited about Pie Face!

We were also pretty excited about this awesome Pokemon Ball cake that Mae and Gracie made--
Joe's a lucky boy!

Happy Birthday, Mr. Joe. Thanks so much for being a part of our family:-).

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
