Happy 8th Birthday Mighty Quinn!

It\’s been quite a week for our Mighty Quinn with his birthday party last weekend and gifts and fun all this week.  He has really stretched out a good long birthday week….and we still have the weekend to celebrate!
Quinn celebrated with Grams before she left.

He loved the Amphibious R/C car that can go right in to the pool.  Thanks Grams!!

Birthday morning wouldn\’t be complete without balloons and a present (a pair of Heelys).

And a specially decorated birthday lunch box for our Brofist with mom\’s amazing sandwich!

A slow start to his morning.  Yes, his new favorite place to sleep.

And we are out the door with a new pair of Heelys on his feet and one of his favorite Captain Underpants books.

Home and ready for cake!!  My two favorite guys doing their best Brofist!

Quinn asked for a Captain Underpants birthday cake so that\’s what he got!  And it turned out super cute and gluten free!

And opening a couple more presents!  Quinn is only opening a couple of presents a day and he is really enjoying each and every one.  You can see the Nerf Target hanging on the window  from Lucas and family.  A new favorite.

And of course I know what kind of card will make the kid smile.  A Diary of a Wimpy Kid Loded Diper!!

Happy Birthday Mighty Quinn!  You are loved so very much.

A Day at Getty Villa

While Grams was here we went to the Getty Villa in Malibu.  They have a family friendly tour where the kids use an ipod to tour the villa.  Quinn had so much fun hunting out the rooms and the names of the tours were Villains, Monsters, and Heroes.  It was alot of fun for us adults too.

The Villa is JP Getty\’s dream of recreating of an ancient villa that was buried by Mt. Vesuvius in Italy.  It\’s designed to feel like you are entering a (very nice) excavation site with multiple striations of earth, stone, etc.

The security wasn\’t too keen about Quinn setting the ipad down on the antiquities 🙂

A look out to the gorgeous gardens.  Because of the draught all of the water features were turned off.  

Don hamming it up.

8th Birthday LazerTag Extreme!

This year Quinn asked to have his 8th Birthday Party at Lazer Tag Extreme with his 10 bestest friends!

Pre-party fun with a couple of buddies!

All 11 crazy boys after their first round of Lazer Tag.  The boys just loved it and had so much fun!

Party time!!  You should feel fortunate that this picture doesn\’t have sound.  Wow was it loud and crazy!

His party host Ryan doing some magic tricks for the boys.

After pizza and cupcakes Quinn got to sin the wheel for a special gift.  He was hoping for Dippin Dots Ice Cream.  Just what he needed 🙂

Um, yay for Dippin Dots?

 The boys had so much fun and Quinn stated it was the best birthday party ever!!!
