Addie had an early birthday celebration with Uncle Ryan last Monday because he was going to be out of town and would miss her party. His plans involved jumping on a plane to go watch both the Cowboys and the Rangers play in the Big D this weekend. You know ~ nothing too very exciting. I mean, I'm not jealous or anything. I'm above that sort of childish behavior. Totally!

In lieu of missing out on Addie's b-day festivities all together, Ryan put together a fun night for her. Namely it involved many colorful water balloons, a delectable chocolate cupcake with fluffy pink frosting & sprinkles, and gift certificates for a much anticipated trip to the Denver Zoo. Addie had a great night and felt very special. These kiddos are loving having both Uncle Ryan and Uncle Joe Joe nearby. It's a pretty good deal!

Thanks Ryan for your thoughtful ideas, and thank you Joe for being willing to be on the receiving end of virtually all of the water balloons that were launched!
