Birthday Celebration Week!

Yes I realize that it has been a long time since I have posted anything but we have been busy! Birthdays, 10 days in California and then trying to get back to normal. But all of our business means that we have fun pictures so enjoy!
The week of Megan's birthday her cousins were visiting so she spent lots of time at the lake. She said earlier in the summer that she wanted to learn how to fish and a few days before her birthday she caught her first fish!!! She was very excited. When I asked her how she did caught the fish she told me in great detail "I hold it, I wind it, and then I catch my first fish!" Add an adorable little shoulder shrug and that is what she told me :)
When I asked Megan what she wanted for her birthday she said "Fancy balloons." So Mark and I got her fancy balloons!

Funny story with this picture. To hard to explain, but it was funny.
Kelsey, Megan, Morgan and Caila getting ready to eat birthday cupcakes!
Megan liked her cupcake just a little.
What is a birthday without gifts? Here is Megan holding up her mama and baby moo-moo cows. She loves cows, so for awhile these guys went everywhere with us.
After spending the morning at the lake, we were off to Grandma and Grandpa Berthold's house for dinner and more gifts. Megan was very excited to open up a bigger hockey jersey and matching hockey socks! Yep she is going to be pretty cute at the hockey arena this year! (side note: Every day since the college students have gone back she has asked, "Is it hockey season yet?")
Fancy balloons weren't enough for a birthday, so Mark and I also got her, her first Playdoh fun factory thing. This set makes movie theater food and she loved it!
And since Megan is slightly obsessed with Tim Horton's Tim-Bits (doughnut holes) I just had to make her "cake" out of Tim-Bits! She knew right away that they were Tim-Bits and went straight for the chocolate ones. She even tried to steal my chocolate Tim-Bit away from me after she pretended to cuddle with me! It was cute, but birthday or not, she was not getting my Tim-Bit.
