Mason’s 5th Birthday!

Jul 2nd, 2013 by Brandi

On June 4, my little Mason turned 5. Where does the time go? Mason had a hard time deciding on a birthday theme this year. We started off with a robot theme, or as Mason said, “I want a ninja robot party…and by ninja robot, I mean Ninja Turtles!” Somehow, we decided on a BSU Bronco party.

Here are some pictures from the day:

Blue and Orange Trifles were the treats for this party!

Can’t forget about the Football Cake Pops! MMmmm!

Mason couldn’t stop talking about pinatas after we bought Silas’s in April! He was so excited when he got to pick out his own! Angry Birds!

Ninja Turtle kite from Auntie Charlene. This kid has been dying for a kite!

Grammy and Papa gave Mason his new bike.

Several members of our family went in with us to buy the boys a trampoline too. I didn’t get any good pictures at the party, but we’ll have to post some soon. The boys absolutely love it! I love that it has a net around it so they can’t fall off and I get to send them out to jump when they’re getting too rowdy in the house! :)

Happy Birthday, Bubba!

Phew! I love that my boys have birthdays during the spring and summer so I don’t have to squish a bunch of people into my teeny house, but I wish they were further than 6 weeks apart! Birthday parties wear me out! Glad we’re done for awhile :)

Love,

The Busy Burrup Family

Silas’s 3rd Birthday!

Jul 1st, 2013 by Brandi

So, I’m a few months late in posting this, but I’m new to this whole “Family Blog” thing. So, give me a break, alright? :)

Silas celebrated his THIRD birthday on April 24. Can we all just take a moment to let that sink in….My BABY is THREE now! How did that happen?

Ok, so back to the festivities! We had a great time celebrating with family and friends. Silas wanted a Ninja Turtle birthday party…Okay, so technically he wanted a “Raph” party. (For all you un-hip, un-cool people out there, that would be Raphael…the red turtle who just happens to be Silas’s favorite turtle. His favorite color just happens to be red too. I’ve always wondered though…is red his favorite color because Raphael is red, OR is Raphael his favorite ninja turtle because he is red?) I digress.

As most of my family knows, my favorite part of the party is the cake. That is how we pick our theme, by deciding what kind of cake the kids want. This year, everything was Raph. “Silas, what kind of cake do you want?” RAPH! “Silas, what do you want for your birthday?” RAPH! “Silas, what should we have for dinner?” RAPH! Ok, so that’s a little bit of an over-exaggeration, but you get the picture. I decided to simplify things for myself this year, and we did cupcakes!

Here’s a look at the festivities:
