The last 24 hours have been an incredibly busy time. Having three children born between Thanksgiving and Christmas is a dynamic all its own. Throw in Christmas programs, parties, end of year concerts, graduations, and recitals from various extracurriculars......and you have a completely different kind of animal.
As a result, celebrating birthdays ends up being almost an afterthought....a time shoehorned in amongst all of the other things we do. This weekend has been deemed Birthday Celebration Weekend. Last night, Daniel and Trey each had some friends over for a sleepover....which ended up being a big lie, because no sleeping was actually done. Trey's birthday was two weeks ago.....Daniel's is next week. Today is Julia's birthday and she wanted to go to Chuck E. Cheese's for her family dinner. Ugh!
Double Ugh!!
But we survived it. We are all exhausted and so looking forward to bedtime, which will be very shortly.
Tomorrow is another crazily busy Sunday......but more on that later.
Here are a couple of funny pictures of the party animals.
Trey, Joshua, Jordan and Cory---at 6 am.
This is Justin----I guess that XBOX game wasn't quite exciting enough to keep him awake.
And tonight, after dinner with Chuck E, Daniel came home and literally passed out on his bed. I just left him there. Hopefully, he'll get a good night's sleep. He's going to need it for tomorrow.

How funny! I didn't realize your kids had birthdays so close together--that it a feat in and of itself! The pictures are great Jennifer! Thanks for posting them.
These pictures are priceless! Thanks for sharing them. Will Joe be able to come back for a short Christmas visit? Keeping you and your family in our thoughts and prayers!
