Boys, Toys and Lots of Fun!

Boys will be boys, right? Well, it all started when Joey and I were in Target right after Christmas. We were walking through the boys section and saw --wait for it, wait for it---grown men's footie pajamas! Yes! We couldn't believe it either. So, we bought them and used them as a prank for the rest of the weekend. It was so funny...all the boys bought them and used them as a party prank at my cousin Brent's 40th birthday party!! Joey's had dinosaurs, and the others were all-star and rockets and they ALL glowed in the dark! How funny is that?!?!

Brent had his 40th birthday party...and we (parents who don't get out much which was very obvious to way too many people) had lots of fun! We danced, enjoyed some adult beverages, caught up with people we haven't seen in a while, and made some new, not so welcoming friends...wink...wink :-0 Needless to say, it will be a very memorable night. The Powell's are known for creating memorable moments and this one won't be forgotten...for sure!

For 2009 Valentine's Day, we decided to splurg a little...Joey has always wanted a four wheeler and we brought home a 2008 Honda Foreman complete with mud grip tires and rims. I wasn't completely in agreement with the tires and rims but Joey wasn't leaving the store without them. It is pretty! And Hayden loves it. He calls it his "4wheeler car". And for my Valentine's Day present...something I have always needed (not wanted) is some help in the house! Ms. Virginia starts this week with helping me keep the house clean which we all know is a chore with 2 boys and a dog!

And I will leave you with updates from our sweet baby...Hayden visited his Mimi and PawPaw/Pepop (he calls him both, in the same sentence) this past week. This was so much fun for him...and a break for Mama and Daddy.
