Christian and Isabelle turned four on Sunday. We celebrated on Saturday with a fun trip to the bowling alley joined by Grandma Shuart, Aunt Tracy, Jack & Katie, and The Arnolds (aka Jamie & Trev). The twins had a lot of fun and by the end of the day they were bowling without any help from mom and dad, which was a big step. Carson only bowled a few frames and then was content just hanging out. He got a little upset at gift time, but nothing a few arcade games couldn't cure. Overall, it was a successful birthday outing.
Then on Sunday, since it was ther actual birthday and we had to spend the afternoon at one of their friends birthday parties, we took them out to dinner so the day would still feel special to them. Isabelle picked Olive Garden and Christian agreed as soon as he heard the words breadsticks and chicken alfredo-- which was great for mom and dad because who doesn't love the Olive Garden? As soon as we were seated Isabelle had to announce "today is my birthday" to everyone. It was very cute to see their faces light up when they came out with a candle in the middle of a bunch of andes mints and sang the birthday song to them.
