Friday, November 4th we celebrated Blake's birthday, just the four of us. Mommy made pancakes for breakfast and then Blake opened his presents. He got the game "Chutes and Ladders" and a Home Depot Chainsaw! All he really wanted was a chainsaw, and thankfully he told me in plenty of time so that I could find the right one. Probably for a solid month he has wanted a chainsaw, because Daddy has been outside cutting up skids to put in our outdoor wood stove. He is Daddy's little helper.
After some playtime we all headed over to Chucky Cheese's for lunch. It was a great time to go because it wasn't packed and the kids could really play all sorts of games. Blake liked any game that had a ball in it, whether you caught it in a basket or tried to make it in a basket that was the game for him. Ava liked all the rides, pony, tractor, car, train, anything that moved. Daddy took Blake over to claim his prizes and he came back with 2 items for himself and 2 for his sister, what a boy.

| This is the beginning of power tools! |
After lunch the kids feel asleep in the car and well that was apparently a nap for them (10 min). We had dinner and ate cake and ice cream and sang (Ava has been practicing this song daily) then headed outside to run around and played a game of Chutes and Ladders. Blake took first prize, Daddy came in 2nd, Ava won 3rd place and poor Mommy came in last. We really had a great day. Blake even told Daddy, "that was a fun day" and gave him a huge hug that night (melted his heart because normally he works on Friday, but used a vacation day for this special occasion...this melted my heart).
