I have been meaning to put Jimmy's birthday pictures on but Blogger was giving me problems and then I got sick, but better late than never.

Mom and Vinney got into town last Thursday and just let me say, Vinney is such a big boy and so adorable. The kids were so excited for them to get here and it was pure adrenaline rush when they finally showed up. We all had lunch at Cracker Barrel and then spent the hanging around the house.

Friday, Nani and Daddy took the kids to the pool and the most exciting thing happened - Jimmy started going under water! He had to prove what a big boy he was, six-years-old.

Saturday, the wonderful Birthday of Jimmy the Great. What a wonderful day for him. He woke up to a bunch of wrapped gifts and cards, then off to Birthday Boys requested breakfast of IHOP, where he was treated like a king. When we got home Daddy made a cake for Jimmy while he played with his friends outside and then we all headed to the pool for a few hours - even Vinney got to swim with Auntie Joey and Uncle Eric. We came back for cake and ice cream and ended the evening with a hamburger cookout. He had a great day.

Sunday was Nani and Vinney's last day and was spent outside but it was actually chilly, so Vinney hung out in the house with Uncle Eric a lot. We finished our last night with a movie of Alvin and the Chipmunks. We really enjoyed Nani and Vinney's visit and wish they could have stayed longer. Thank you for making Jimmy's birthday so special.
