Happy Birthday Eric!

We had a great time on Eric's birthday! We got together with Chris and Jenny for some breakfast at Ihop and then made our way to the Home Depot where the kids built spice racks. Ellen and Olivia has their first experience using a hammer,it was really fun. Eric and I got to go on a real date minus the kids for dinner on his birthday (a real treat)! And we also had the traditional cake and ice cream party for Eric on Sunday night. What a cute face Talmage is making in this picture! He is so sweet, and he's always up for a good party!

With 31 candles Eric needed all the help he could get! The girls were very willing to help and between the 3 of them all of the candles were blown out and licked clean.

Ihop brought out a birthday ice cream sunday for Eric with lots of spoons for all of the kids to share with him. (Good that we had about 5 colds between the 5 kids.)
