Grandpas Birthday weekend!

Grandpas birthday was on the 11th and it was his big 50th birthday!  Skyler, Bri, and Breyden all came down to join in on this momentous occasion!  They stayed with us and we had too much fun with our cute little kids!  Kenton and Breyden just love each other so much.  At least we hope they do!
 They had so much fun playing together and sharing toys!

So we had some big plans to surprise dad when he got home at work at 6 in the morning.  We were going to wake up super early and make the trek over and be there waiting to surprise him.  It would be perfect, he wouldn't even suspect it!  We all went to bed Fri night probably a little later than we should have being our alarms were set for 4am.  Around 3:30 we got a text from my mom saying dad got home early:(  As much as I didn't want to get up that early I was bummed!  I was way excited to surprise him!  So we went back to sleep and woke up and went over.  He finally got up around 12 or so and it was a party from there!  We had tons of black balloons and caution tape and 50 streamers.  We even got him an over the hill cake!
Grandpa was so excited that his two favorite grandsons were there.  Quite honestly I think he was more excited to snuggle with those two than anything else!  Grandpa of course had to leave for work after awhile but that didn't stop us from having some fun.
I love seeing the boys together...Since they are 9 days apart it is so fun to compare their stats like how tall they are and how much they weigh and what not. 
They are pretty close in height...Breyden has got Kenton by a good inch or so.  He takes after his tall daddy!
Breyden also tries to be way taller by standing on his tip toes! 

Kenton is helping Breyden with his headstand and apparently getting hungry at the same time.
I liked this picture cause you could see their daddies in the background.






On Sunday the boys got to eat breakfast together.  Kenton let Breyden use his chair and loved sitting taller than him!  They both got pretty messy and needed to have baths!

Breyden was highly upset when his mommy told him it was all gone that he decided to see for himself.

Then decided that he would finish it off by licking it out:)  My kind of guy!  It was bath time after that and they were super stoked to get in the tub!

Had to take some pictures while they waited for their bath to fill up.  We are lucky they aren't sick of pictures at this point.  They always have lights flashing in their eyes!  And finally BATH TIME

They had so much fun splashing around and getting their mommies wet while Jason and Skyler captured the moment!  As much as we wanted to go over early to my parents with Bri and Sky we had to go to our ward and teach our cute little primary kids!  After church we came home to change and grab Aida. 
Kenton is ready for the drive to Grandma and Grandpas house and hanging on for dear life!
Sunday dinner was nice.  We hated saying good bye to Dad but we had fun playing scattegories together and eating some more of his Birthday cake and ice cream.  Jason and I were leaving to go to his parents so we said our goodbyes.  It always stinks saying goodbye knowing that it will be awhile before we see the Southwicks again!  I tell them time and time again to just move down to save us all this heartache:)
Sisterly love and with our cute little boys.  Had to get our traditional photo together!  Its crazy to think that we both have kids! 
It was a great weekend in all and we had so much fun together!  Now we just look forward to the next birthday or holiday that will bring us together again!
