Birthday Season Is Upon Us!!!!

Build-A-Bear
For the kids' birthday party, we took Grandpa and Grandma Erickson and a couple of their friends to Build-A-Bear and everyone got to make their own bear. The kids had a ball and Gma and Gpa even got to make their own souvenir bears! We had so much fun!

The kids have taken over Sadie's (our dog who isn't living with us at the moment) new dog bed that we just bought for her. They think it is their mini bean bag that they can sleep on.
Jaxon got a hold of the peanut butter jar and was handing out spoonfuls to everyone. If he could, I think he would live off of peanut butter!

Birthdays are so fun! We just had Evie's 1st (same day as Jaxon's) and Owen's party is in 2 weeks. It's kind of nice to get them out of the way at the same time though, so much work for such a short time. I'm sure the kids are loving the snow, Owen went through withdrawel when we came home from Utah. I'm definately not complaining about 65 degree weather here though, it is gonna be cold in Germany. We're enjoying our mild winters for as long as we possibly can. We miss you guys. Love the pictures.
