26 Years!


We celebrated Jon's 26th birthday last Sunday. It was a lot of fun. We had all the close-by family together at Jenny's place for a birthday bbq, and it was tasty! We really had a good time and enjoyed hanging out with everybody. Jon sort of shared his birthday with Koen, as he turned 5 months old on Sunday too. My two men are growing up so fast!!! haha I made Jon two ice cream cakes. Yes... two. I had never made ice cream cake before and never really have any reason to either, yet they sounded so tasty and I wanted to try some other flavors together besides what the birthday boy asked for, so I made two. We had a white cake with chocolate chip ice cream and a chocolate cake with chocolate chip mint ice cream cake. I frosted both cakes with homemade whipped cream. I think they both turned out well and delicious. We had plenty of left overs. Thanks to the kind service of Josh and Meagan, we haven't had to finish ALL of the left overs by ourselves. haha Thank you everyone for celebrating with us! Jon appreciated the birthday wishes that came from those who couldn't celebrate with us too.

Jon, we love you!

Happy Birthday to Jon! What a cute picture of your two boys! Koen sure does look a lot like his daddy, but he definitely has his Mommy's eyes. Glad you guys had a good time celebrating. Your ice cream cakes sound delicious!

I'm sure Josh & Meagan really suffered when they helped with the leftover ice cream cakes. (Ha-Ha)

I'm not sure its possible for Koen to get any cuter. He seems to be a happy baby just like his mama.
Jon's hair looks nice.
