A Month of Thanks, Day 20

Today I am thankful for all the fun and silly things that I get to do with my amazing kids.  Last night, we had an impromptu Unbirthday-Fake-Mustache Party.  Yep, you read that right.  We wanted a birthday cake, and since it was no ones actual birthday, we decided to have a party of our own.  And it was just plain fantastic.


  Anthony chose this mustache because he said it looked like Luigi's.  LOL 

And oddly, Michael looks like Mario...

Leelah paired hers with a fabulous purple wig.

 Here is the cake we bought.  We stuck a giant Mr. Potato Head mustache on it, to go with the party theme.  It was much more attractive before Drake swan dived into it.  Thankfully, the plastic cover was still on it when he did.

My niece, Michelle, petting her mustache.

Drake had a runny nose, so his mustache is most definitely not re-usable, but he does look rather dashing.

Somehow, my mustache is two-toned.  Weird.  And I was doing my best mustache face, which I think is a phenomenal success.




My brother Bowie and his girlfriend Felisha attended our party as well, but I didn't get a very good picture of them.  Hmmm...




Nights like this leave me a lot to be thankful for.  They're filled with the sorts of things in life that simply cannot be replaced, like my kids' laughter, and the memories of how much fun we had.  I hope that there will be many more of these impromptu laughter inducing episodes to be thankful for in my lifetime, and that I pass on to my children the ability to enjoy life at a moments notice.  :)
