It's Rob's turn for a party!

Rob's birthday is on Wednesday (my due date) so today we had a party for him. Yes, our family (well, me. I'm not sure about everyone else, but I make them come) likes to party.

Because it's so close to my due date, and because it's so hot out, we didn't have as elaborate a party as we did for Dave. Even though it's Rob's BIG YEAR this year. Luckily Rob is a nice guy and didn't feel slighted.

We had a great dinner of couscous, mediteranean rice pilaf, greek potatoes, pitas and tzatziki, some maui ribs and chicken (or chick'n for those who don't eat meat!) with raspberries and icecream for dessert as well as these delicious italian cookies Alexis and Dave brought. MNNN. It was yummy.

After dinner (when everyone's tummies allowed), we beat up another pinata.





Davey was being quite the encourager. Here he is yelling "YAY" for Jadey's attempts at breaking the pinata open.



David and Jade took a break to play in the sandbox. They were both sluggin pretty hard at that thing, so they probably needed to regain their strength!



That thing was so hard to break, we finally called out the big guns. Rob looks like he's posing here, but he's actually making sure he's using the right technique.

Then Dave tried again.

FINALLY Rob got the pinata open and all the great goodies spilled everywhere. Zellers has a great sale on toys right now by the way. Instead of tons of candy, we were able to have planes, cars, bubbles, and water balls. Awesome!

Rob was pretty quick to snatch up his car. Then again, he is the birthday boy!!!


This is him after flying his plane off the clubhouse.

I guess there was a little bit of candy. Here's Dave helping Davey get his smarties out of the box. Mnnnnnn! Thanks uncle Dave!!

And of course, we had to have birthday cake. Happy Birthday Rob! Hope you have a GREAT day Wednesday!!
