Birthday Bonanza

We are in the midst of our annual birthday bonanza in my family. Over the next 3 months most of my family will celebrate their birthday. This may seem great for the kids who seem to be at a birthday party every other day, where staying up late becomes almost the routine. However, us adults are so partied out by the end of Januaury, we want to hibernate in February.

My sister Larah, celebrated her 30th birthday on October 24th. My brother-in-law Jimmy's birthday is October 27th. We have halloween this week and any day my sister's baby is due. This little peanut will be wedged in amongst all the other birthdays. We toodle along and will participate in a Holiday Parade in November, Thanksgiving, and then we will have Dan's birthday on November 30th, which also happens to be my mom and dads wedding anniversary.

December brings celebrating my moms birthday on December 2nd, our godson's birthday on December 5th. My sisters boyfriend's birthday is December 7th, and my birthday on December 15th. Each party is celebrated with a family celebration, including cake and presents. Dan graduates on December 17th, with his Business Management Degree. We also have 3 Christmas Parties, 2 Christmas Programs and we are participating in a speaking event for Meritcare Children's Hospital on December 5th.

January brings Atley and Carson's 5th Birthday along with Dan's step-mom and step-nephew's birthdays.

I am already getting stressed about all the commitments filling up our calendar, but the kids already asked me today " Whose party are we going to today??" They love all the fun, so I am going to try and do the same.
