Happy Birthday Ricky!

Ricky turned 12 today! We celebrated yesterday by going to the place of his choice, Dave and Busters. An extra bonus was having the day off from school because of the weather.

One of three games Allan can play. He was annoyed Elena wouldn't leave him in peace and allow him to play alone. She wanted to maximize her tickets.......not a concern of Allan's

Having to problem solve.

The pros!

My gang!

Check out those gourmet cupcakes (and Allan's excitement). They were yummy too! And, yes I made them.

Ricky blocking Allan from trying to make a wish on his behalf. Allan had been looking forward to blowing out the candle all day. He wanted to know when he could have his birthday again.

Reading his b-day card from Mama and Papa Ocanas and happy to receive cash, since he is in Elena's club, broke. He received a card in the mail from his bonus grandparents today as well.

Notice the happiness of FINALLY receiving the gift he has wanted since before Christmas, an Ipod Nano.

I love you Ricky!

(Elena was jealous because I took a pic with Ricky on his b-day and I didn't take one with her on her b-day. I was the photographer on her b-day. Allan didn't like the fact I was hugging Ricky. He said, "I your baby!" Brandon didn't say anything cause he didn't witness it. I love that I am so loved!)
