Hi all! This past week we celebrated not one, but two Birthdays in the LaFon Household.. whew! This past Wednesday, March 1st was my Moms Birthday & then on the 3rd was my parents Foster Child Nevaehs 5th Birthday! On the 1st the majority of the fam bam (minus the kids in school) went out to lunch at Lazy Dog Restaurant at Downtown Summerlin. We had to do lunch because JJ and I worked at night so we wouldn't be available to celebrate at diner time. Which Nicole ended up getting an ice cream cake to sing Happy Birthday to our Mom after dinner with all the little ones because most of them were not at the lunch. But I digress.
I was personally excited to go to Lazy Dog because I had been wanting to go there since it opened and hadn't gotten a chance. My parents had previously gone one time and I am so glad they liked it enough to choose it for the birthday lunch! I got a Salad and a Chicken BLT minus the L and add Avocado! Ha! OMGSH- I also had THE BEST Strawberry Lemonade I have ever had! Highly recommend it! The kids made their own pizzas- which they loved doing! It was a lovely afternoon- and we left the restaurant very, very full- with doggy bags to take home for later! We even made sure to tell them it was Moms Birthday so for dessert they brought over an ice cream sundae over with a lit candle on top and we all sang Happy Birthday! It was a very lovely lunch! P.S. Nicole got the flowers pictured below- she had wanted to get our Mom Dandelions but they didn't have any so she got Daisies instead!
*On a side note- I have a very photogentic family... At least I think so- at the very least they LOVE taking photos- just like me!
Keeping the Birthday Train going, we celebrated Nevaehs 5th Birthday at Chuck E Cheese on Friday Night, the night after her actual birthday, the 4th of March! We met up with her brother who is placed in another Foster Home. Out of respect for both of them because they are Foster Children I will not post pics of either of their faces, but they are super cute kids- especially Nevaeh!
Everyone had a great time. The only one not there was JJ, but Nicole and I took one for the team and partied with the little ones! We had pizza and salad and cake! The kids played around the in play place and Dad also got everyone tokens- which Nicole and I kept the majority of said tokens for ourselves and had the best time playing all the arcade games- in fact Nicole killed this one game- she was 3/3 in this jump rope game and like doubled her ticket count lol. Ryder P just kept running around- I mean we would blink and he was gone- or blocking some other kid out after they put their own token in and stealing their game-play lol.. Whoops, sorry kids!
The kids kept watching Chuck E perform on stage. They didn't know whether to love it and sing/dance along or be scared shitless, sometimes they were all of the above lol!
I felt super cute because Heidi did my hair- thanks Heidi! At Chuck E Cheese we also sang Happy Birthday to N and she opened her presents! She loved them. She was a happy birthday girl! Mission Accomplished! I also took some silly photos with Ryder & Nicole- and Heidi got a really pretty one of herself- pictured below! It was just a really fun evening and for once the kids all acted great!
