Happy Birthday Becca!!

Saturday was Rebecca's 3rd birthday. We had a party with all her friends, and BOTH sets of grandparents! Rebecca seemed very happy with all the attention and the gifts from all her friends. She had been asking me multiple times a week for the last 3 months (ever since Ben's birthday) when it was going to be her birthday! I think it lived up to her expectations. Below are some pictures from the party, and later I will post some video of her blowing out her birthday candles after I have had a chance to upload that. Happy birthday Becca!

I am the Princess

Crazy Hair

Thanks to the generosity of family, Ben has achieved his own personal goal in his school fundraiser -- getting enough pledges for the Crazy Hair prize.

Just a Little Hectic

It's been a busy weekend and I'm gearing up for a busy week! Weekend activities included Yom Kippur services (for Joel anyyway - I stayed home with the kids), a Break Fast at a friend's house, a birthday party (of the grownup variety, for one of our neighbors), Cub Scouts, the Panthers game (Joel went with a friend), and grocery shopping.

This week Joel is at a conference in Dallas from tonight until Friday night. I am left managing the kids, a full week at work, and a last-minute to-do list for Rebecca's birthday party on Saturday, as well as getting ready to host Mom and Dad from Thursday night - Sunday, and dealing with an altered school schedule because Rebecca is off Thursday and Friday for Sukkot.

Ben's doing a fundraiser for school that has required a bit of my attention this week as well, and homework (which was slow to get started) is now in full gear with spelling homework 4 nights a week, reading 4 nights a week, math homework 2 nights a week, and weekly spelling tests.

So- busy, busy! But looking forward to a great weekend with Mom and Dad and an awesome 3rd birthday celebration for Becca!!
