Someone came up with the BRILLIANT idea to celebrate ALL the Wiegman cousins' birthdays on one day!  It was so hard to find the time to all get together for each celebration.  This way, we all celebrate together and it's like Christmas in the summer for these kiddos!

This year, Eric and Amy hosted the party in Chicago.  We had great food, great company, and lots of fun!

My sweet, sweet Lu Lu.  Who needs toys?  Balloons kept him plenty entertained!

Ben and Drew both told me a few criteria for their gift this year....

1.) They liked money.
2.) BUT... they really liked opening a gift.
3.) They love $1 bills because a big stack of money makes them feel really, really rich!

SO..... 

Each of them got a wrapped box with 25 $1 bills spread out all over! They were SO excited!

Quentin has been riding a balance bike instead of a bike with training wheels.  Eric and Amy insisted he would go straight to riding a "big boy" bike with no training wheels. I was definitely reluctant. BUT, he got this bike at the party and was riding it like a pro in the evening! AMAZING~ I'm now a believer!!!

LOVE this picture with Granny!

Makes my heart melt.  Maybe an all-time favorite photo.

This one is pretty great too!

Mya's FAVORITE toy, a grocery car cart.  I think I'll be heading out soon to buy a second cart.  Mya and Luke fight over it daily!

Trick candles... get cha every time!
