Noah's 9th Birthday and Scott's 35th!

Yikes! Another year has gone by! Last weekend we celebrated Noah's 9th Birthday and Scott's 35th Birthday! OMG! My son is 9 years old. That is so hard to even say outloud! NINE!!!! wow!!! and Scott is 35! woohooo!! We celebrated Noah's party on Saturday (but his bday was really on Sunday) and we celebrated Scott's Bday Lunch on Sunday (but his bday was really on Saturday)..Yah it is backwards...they kinda switched...I have to say that it really SUCKS to have their birthdays next to each other. At first it was awwww Kinda cute..but NOT anymore! LOL
We went to the Houston Zoo for Noah's Birthday. His best friend, Ezekiel came along. My mom and Sister were able to come into town and celebrate with us which was a real treat!! Here we go ready to head out to the zoo. Ryan, Noah, and Ezekiel all sported their binocualrs (courtesty of MOI)

It took us Forever to get a parking spot (who knew the Zoo was that busy?) But we finally made our way but did stop for a few photos


We had a great time..it was HOT though. Ryan had a blast looking at the animals. He had never been to a zoo before and Noah and Ezekiel loved looking at the animals too. Those 2 boys were good as Gold!

Ryan had the best seat in the house though :)


Noah and Ezekiel really enjoyed using their binocualrs too :)


Noah and Ryan both loved feeding the giraffe. I don't think we were supposed to do this though. LOL



I was worried that Ryan would be in the way for Noah and his friend but they all got along really well! I was proud of all of them!!


Later, after buying a ton of things in the gift shop, We went on over to Double Dave's for Noah's Favorite pizza (and mine too) LOL


We went home to have the Cake for Both Scott and Noah! YES a ton of cake!!


Noah enjoyed being the 'KING' for the day and his party!!


I loved the bow so much that we added it to his head! LOL


Noah got alot of Cash, alot of Video games for his DS, PS3 and Wii..He really loved his cookie cake too.


Scott also loved his cake (Linda's Fudge Cake from the Cheesecake Factory)...I KNOW he got his Chocolate fix on it. Half of it is still sitting in the fridge over a week later. LOL

They did an awful job with his name on that piece of white chocolate. Ryan could have done a better job. LOL I called to complain but they didn't seem to care.......NEVER will I get a cake there again.

Scott received a TOMTOM navigation system which he desparately NEEDS!!! He loved it..it is the latest and greatest too :)


Noah loved his balloons and of course Ryan had to get a balloon TOO!




That night ended with Noah and his friend playing video games. They slept on the blow-up mattress and played games til 3AM! BOY! Was I tired the next day!!


The following day was Scott's day to Celebrate with his Lunch!! He wanted some Italian so we went to Buca Di Beppo!! We loved it as always!!


Our appetizer was super duper yummy! LOL It was Brushetta (sp might be wrong)..They have the BEST ever!



Scott and I managed to sit next to each other, Which is REALLY rare!


Noah and Nanna (my Mom) also were able to sneak a picture!
