Happy Birthday Jon & Joe

Jon & Joe turned 20 on October 19th. It's hard to believe that they aren't teenagers anymore! This was the first year that the boys haven't celebrated their birthdays together. It didn't hit me until we sang "Happy Birthday" and only had to say "dear Jon" instead of listening to everyone say "Jon and Joe", or "Joe & Jon"! I tried to call Joe on his birthday, but his fiance was in town, so that automatically makes me chopped liver! At least I was able to say "Happy Birthday to his voicemail :o)
It seems like just yesterday I could hold them in my arms and dress them up like girls... it's amazing how fast they grew up. We have had our ups and downs like all siblings do, but at the end of the day, no matter how mad they make me, I am very proud to call them my little monsters!!

We spent the evening at Chuck E Cheese's (which we probably wouldn't have been able to do if Joe was here!)

Lots of boys having lots of fun
The boys playing games like they were in the casino...
