15 + 13 + 13 = 3

Just 6 weeks after Rylee turned 15 we celebrated Cole and Noah's 13th birthday. So we are now outnumbered by 3 teenagers. Thank goodness we have good kids, most the time anyway. The boys were officially ungrounded the day before their birthday so they were celebrating more than just getting older.

They wanted pizza for their lunch group like Rylee had. Here is Noah enjoying their pizza.



That night all our family came over to help us eat the traditional birthday dinner for the boys: spaghetti with mizythera cheese. Here is Cole with my dad.


I LOVE this picture, they are both smiling so big and not hiding from the camera like they usually do. They were laughing so hard at the gift they had just received from Mike's brother, Kevin. He gave them 3 books: 2 about Walter the Farting Dog and the other about Farts around the world which even has sound effects, it is pretty funny. Most everyone else gave them money which they are of course using for new instruments. Cole just bought his 4th guitar and Noah is using his money for a new drum set.


For dessert they wanted waffles with ice cream (my mom made it one night for them and they loved it). It was a fun day, I just cannot believe they are 13!
