6 Flags for our 6th

Brian and I didn't do much for our 5th anniversary, what with a new baby and the MCATs and interviews and all, so I've been planning our sixth for a long time. I'm finally at a point where I'm not pregnant or nursing and my kids are in LOVE with their Grandma Pew so we escaped to CA and went to Six Flags for out Anniversary while they played with their Grandma back home in Henderson.

Spiderman Birthday Party

Lukas had a special guest at his 3rd Birthday Party...

He had lots of friends and family, made out like a bandit on the presents, and did a pinata outside after pizza and cake. Thanks for everyone who made it so special, especially you, Spiderman, you made his party unforgettable!

The DeWitt Birthday tradition is breakfast in bed but it doesn't always work with toddlers. Lukas wanted donuts this year. Nice!

Favorite Quote

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
