Happy Birthday, Jeff.

And our August birthdays end here...finally. Today, Jeff turned the ripe old age of 13 -- he's so excited to be an official TEENAGER!

Jeff's such a great kid -- I don't think many get sweeter and more loving than our Jeffman. He celebrated today with 3 of his closest friends at Golfland arcade for 2 hours and then home for pizza and Wii. (And he can't wait until he's old enough to actually invite girls to future parties -- what???) Happy Birthday, Jeff!!!
Oh man, he was the CUTEST KID. What happened...kidding. He's still as cute as ever.













Jeff requested German pancakes for breakfast -- yes it takes this much to feed all of us.

Oh, 2 hours before the party started, Jeff's cousin, Becca, showed up as a surprise to "kidnap" Jeff for lunch at Nondo's. He loved it...especially the chocolate nachos. (Thanks, Becca!)

I only let Jeff invite 3 other friends (we only have 4 wii remotes, okay?) -- he would have loved to invite more. Such goofy kids - but they were alot of fun. I'd take them over 9 squealing 8-year old girls anyday. :)
Jeff requested an ice cream cake for his birthday -- so I took the liberty of making an "ice cream dessert". It was so easy and saved me a bizillion dollars from having to buy one. It's just ice cream sandwiches fitted together on the bottom of a 9 x 13, topped with whipped cream (18 oz), Carmel, and crushed candy bars. Oh so yummy and rich. All in all, he said this was the best day EVER!
