We then came home and made cupcakes. This year their theme for their b-day is Toy Story. So we used cupcake wrappers with Woody and Buzz and then put star tooth picks in the top with Woody and Buzz as well. They were so excited for the cupcakes and really enjoyed eating them. Here they are in their birhtday hats. 
Here are the cupcakes. Which I have to say I think look alright. I have difficuty with making cakes and even cupcakes but I think these looked pretty good. They are decorated with red and blue frosting which are Preston (blue) and Boston's (red) favorite colors right now. 
And here they are pretending to take big bites out of the cupcakes. 
And here they are after they had enjoyed most of their cupcakes. 
After we enjoyed the cupcakes Gary and I took them to Fat Cats for some bowling and arcade games. They had a lot of fun. Preston beat everyone. Boston kept saying all afternoon "That was a good game of bowling." 
We took a drive up Ogden canyon to enjoy the pretty fall leaves but Boston and Preston fell asleep. So Gary and I just enjoyed the beautiful drive. Then when we got home they opened some presents from Gary and I. Here is Boston with the dollar he got from Grandma and Grandpa Knudsen in the mail. He was pretty excited about it and has already spent it on a "Line Chocolate" (that is what they call Kit Kat's) and a little bag of Funyuns (our new favorite chips). 
Here they are with their new bat and their new and 1st baseball mits. 
Opening a present. 
It was a baseball tee, a net to throw the ball against and the bases. Can you tell we are trying to create some little baseball stars! 
Opening another present. LEGOS. 
Here is Preston showing off his LEGOS. 
And Boston thinking he is pretty strong by holding his on his head. 
They have been loving to build with the LEGOS. But I think Gary is enjoying it even more. Now I know why he wanted to get them for the boys for their b-day. They had a really fun day but sadly this is how our day ended. Just had to share this picture, because it actully quite funny as to why he is crying. Here the story: When the day was winding down and we were about to get them ready for bed, Preston sat down on my lap and asked if he was 4. I said yes and then out of nowhere he started crying saying he wanted to go back to 3. He didn't want to be 4. I seriously don't know where it came from because all day he had proudly been telling people it was his birthday and that he was 4. Isn't it a little young to be worried about getting older. Here is the picture and then a little video of him crying about it. 
Boston was cute too. He kept asking if he was 4 today. I would tell him yes and then he would say he wasn't getting bigger. I kept trying to explain you just grow a little everyday but he wanted to know why he wasn't bigger that day. So I had one crying to go back to being 3 and the other wanted to know why he wasn't any bigger.
Well I think they had a pretty good day and we are going to continue the celebrating by having a Birthday Party on Saturday with most of our family. They can't wait and keep asking when everyone is coming.
We sure love you Boston and Preston. We are so blessed to have you both in our lives. You are both so unique and bring something different and special to our family. Daddy and Mommy love you so much. Happy Birthday!!
