Today was our family birthday party - but the boys' actual birthday is tomorrow, Feb 7th - and they don't know how special it is to fall on the very first SuperBowl for the Saints (WHO DAT!?). . . .and hopefully the first one the Saints win! . . . . And appropriate, as I went into labor on SuperBowl Sunday 2 years ago. (So will the NFL charge me for writing the words "Superbowl" and "Saints" and "Who dat"??? They need to chill . . . )
So stinkin' proud of the cake! It was banana flavored, and did not take as long to make as it looks like it may have. And the monkey is actually "holding" two helium balloons.
Uncle Shane (it's rare to get a picture of him with his face) made his fabulous famous brisket for the party.
Daddy helps Bowen get his hat on. Bowen loves hats and thought these were pretty cool.
Even George got into the festivities!

How adorable are these shirts that my mom (Nana) made for the boys! As you can see, Bowen poured (not spilt - intentionally poured) punch down his shirt and pants. He's crazy.
Honey & Papaw Cathcart hold the boys up while we sing Happy Birthday and let them blow out their #2 candles.
The resemblance between the boys & the monkey cake is scary - I think my little boys are actually monkies! . . . And it was shortly after this photo that Luke stepped on the cake. I was asking for that by staging this photo op.
