Today was a very cool but very busy day for the T family.  My mom and stepdad came into town late last night (actually, it was early this morning) and were thankfully here to help us celebrate!  The kids and I got a special treat – Grammy made them an early breakfast and I got to sleep in!  We lounged around the house a bit before heading over to our local Pottery Barn Kids to meet a couple of Star Wars characters during their special meet 'n greet event!  I had picked up tickets a few weeks ago after learning they'd be here this weekend.  I'm not sure who enjoyed it more – the kids or Grammy!

 

 

This was the only way W would pose with the characters – in Grammy's arms.  What I failed to get on camera was his complete beeline towards the door when it was his turn to go up alone.  That was most certainly NOT going to happen!

We browsed around the store a bit while Grammy purchased a few very cool books for the kids and the we headed over to lunch at one of our family favorites – Jack Stack.  The only thing crappy about our visit there was that our waiter was not too keen on what great service should really be.  Oh well, the food was good, nonetheless.  We were all stuffed!

About that time we headed over to Target to pick up N's birthday party cake and then headed over to the bowling alley for the party.  All the kids had such a great time and by the end of it just wanted to devour some cake.  N received lots of great goodies from great friends and has pulled just about everything out to play with it!

 

 

 

 

My favorite, though, was when he received a fist-full of cash from Grammy & Popo and exclaimed, "dollars!" then proceeded to stuff it into his tiny pockets.
