Papa's birthday

Papa had a birthday shout Hooray!

James birthday was on Monday but we celebrated all weekend long.  Saturday we had a Bee and Cheese party.  Lots of friends came, we sampled cheese and talked a lot about bees.  kids played and we all had a good time.  We also ate James' birthday cake that day when we had friends over to help us eat it.  James requested a Spice cake with his Mom's homemade caramel frosting.  It was a delicious success. 

Sunday went to church and spent the afternoon relaxing.  

Monday morning (James' official birthday) we decided to go play in the snow in the Mt.  But first we needed Donuts.

We had fun playing in the snow for about an hour and then the girls where done.

After playing in the snow we went back to the car filled up on snacks and drank some yummy hot cocoa.


Once everyone was warm and happy again we decided to go see Snoqualimie falls.  The sun was shining and the girls where having fun running around looking at all the different kinds of plants.  So James took the girls on a hike to the bottom of the falls.  Since going back up would take a lot of effect and the girls  having not napped, we decided to have me drive down to the bottom and pick them up.



It was a beautiful and fun family day.  We came back home ate pizza and gave Papa his presents before he headed out to  his bee meeting.
Grace got Papa a Despicable Me minion Shirt and Gwenevere got Papa a Cat shirt.
We sure love our Papa.

I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for giving me such an awesome hard working man.  James does an amazing job providing for our family.  We love him so much and are glad we could spoil him for his birthday.

Happy 31st Birthday James
