Anniversary, Birthday and sprained elbow???

So you would think with so many exciting things going on at our house, that i would have some good pics to go along with this post. Nope...not so much:)

Saturday July 18th, Rich and i had been married for 8 whole years. Can you believe it...don't worry, i'm shocked too!!! We went out to dinner at Tucanos...super yummy and super expensive. I would suggest only going there if you have a coupon for a free Birthday meal...which we did because Rich's birthday was the following day. Anyhooter...we had a good time and ate too much, like usual.

Sunday July 19th, Rich celebrated the big 3-1. I can hardly believe he is still alive and his heart hasn't stopped beating since he has reached such an old age. I feel bad for the guy:) We celebrated by going to church (probably one of his favorite things to do, not so much mine:)!!! jk. For dinner i made Chinese food. I love Chinese. I made super yummy sweet-n-sour chicken, way good, but takes alot of time, i also made fried rice and egg rolls...okay i didn't actually MAKE these last two, but i did have to cook them. i think that counts, especially considering the heat in the kitchen:) We finished off the night by watching the 3rd Lord of the Rings (Rich's favorite of the 3, besides that the girls love those kind of movies), and having some cake and ice cream.

These pictures are backwords..but whatever. We nearly started a forrest fire with the number of candles that were on this cake. You should have seen it afterward...covered in wax...YUM-O!!!

Willow and Elwyn were so excited for Daddy's candles.

Later that evening, the girls were messing around like they always do (trying to kill each other i assume...) anywho...Elwyn ended up hyperextending her elbow. Poor little thing. She would not stop crying and she would not straighten her arm, or use it in any way. I thought for sure we would be making a trip to the ER. After an hour of her crying, we wrapped it in and ace bandage and gave her some ibprofen...sure enough she was all better. Don't you love how a bandage cures everything. I love it!!! It really was strange because i know she wasn't faking the pain, but the minute we had that bandage on her, she was ALL BETTER. Goofy kids....
