Cody celebrated his 25th birthday this weekend! His actual birthday is April 3rd, but we celebrated all weekend! :) Friday night Cody worked late, so I was home getting as much as I could ready for his birthday bash Saturday night. Not everything went according to plan, so I had even MORE to get done Saturday before his party! haha Saturday Cody worked early, which helped me get out of bed and get going. I went to Walmart at about 6:30am, then waited around for the beauty supply store to open (I thought they opened at 7am not 8am, bummer, but I did get a Starbucks coffee!!! hehe), went home, baked 75 homemade cupcakes (two different flavors), colored my hair, decorated cupcakes, ran to my parents to start decorating, ran to pick up the pizza, got back to my parents house ( a couple of close friends/family were arriving) and set up the food and last minute decorations, then everybody showed up, I still am amazed that I got everything done that needed to be, before the party!!! I definitely could not have done it all without the help from my Mama! So, thank you Mama! hehe :o) We had an absolute BLAST at the party! Played ping pong, visited, had a Nerf Dart Gun war in my parents living room (which would have NEVER EVER happened when Justen and I were kids! lol When I saw the darts flying I looked over at my Dad and he had a Nerf gun in his hand shooting darts, then I looked for my Mom and she was on the stairs ducking back and forth while shooting her Nerf gun...HAHA It was awesome, everyone was laughing hysterically, I WISH that I would have captured that on video!), ate pizza, cupcakes, etc. I didn't take as many pictures and videos as I had hoped to because I was running around "managing" the party :) Cody had a blast and that was all I cared about! :) Sunday we went to our Starting Point class at church, went to Red Robin so Cody could get his free burger, then went home took a three hour long nap (much needed). We had planned on going to Olive Garden for dinner, but after our nap all that Cody wanted to do was spend the evening at home with "his girls" (me and our puppies). So we went to pick up pizza, bread sticks and soda and had a great night "in" watching NCIS and talking :) It was SO nice to spend all of Sunday with my husband! He has been working a lot lately, so I don't get to see much of him, let alone spend time with him. Needless to say we all had a fabulous weekend! Thank you to ALL who attended Cody's party and those that called to wish him a Happy Birthday on his birthday! :o) Below are some videos and pictures of his party Saturday :)
