My favorite Birthday Boy!

 Its official, my guy is now 25! 

I made Casey two cakes this year, a paper cake and a cheese cake.  The paper cake was just for fun.  I made 25 paper candles and hid them throughout our house so that he would have to find them.  For some reason he loves this kind of stuff, So seeing looking around the house enthusiastically for an hour was worth every minute of making that 6 tiered red velvet cake.  





After finding all 25 of his candles we headed off to the movies as a family.  We had just pulled into the AMC parking lot when we hear Tinsley throw up.  Nice.  Well luckily right next to the AMC is a Target, so we drove over to the target with the windows rolled down and I ran inside and got Tins a new outfit and some wipes.  Luckily almost all of there summer stuff was on clearance so I got her a new outfit for really cheap.  I guess thats one way to get new clothes.  

After she was all cleaned up we drove back to the theater and headed in to see Ice Age 3.  The girls loved it, and they did really well for their first time in a theater.  Of coarse they had to stop and "play" a few video games when the movie was over.




 After the movie we headed to a few pet stores and got some rocks and supplies for Casey's new fish tank.  To say he is excited for his new fish tank is an understatement!  He spend a lot of time out back cleaning everything out and getting it ready for his new fish.



I made Casey his favorite, lasagna, for dinner and we topped it off with homemade no bake cheesecake.  




Our fish tank sat empty for a few days while the water filtered and Casey go everything ready.  It didn't matter to our girls that there was no fish, they loved going over to the fish tank and looking inside. 



Casey has been looking and looking and looking for fish to put in his tank (I had to talk him out of going to the pond down the road and bringing home some of those fishies).  Finally he found some fish that someone was giving away that we wanted, so yesterday we drove down to Olympia and My guy got his fish.  I wish I would have gotten his face when he first walked around the corner, he had a smile from ear to ear.


He has been checking on his fish all day and has named a couple.  I think its safe to say he had a pretty good birthday :)
