The festivities took place at Haile Ranch in Los Angeles, a venue that has grown fond to the family. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Blank Coba expressed her enthusiasm for ranch life, stating, “I take them to see horses and cows and chickens all the time, and they love it!” This passion for rural activities inspired the pair to opt for a cowboy theme for their children’s special day.
At the ranch, which is home to a variety of animals including horses, pigs, and goats, the twins delighted in hands-on experiences. Blank Coba shared how the children were able to interact closely with the animals: “They brought out the horses for the kids to pet and brush. They got to feed the chickens and the goats,” she explained, highlighting the joy on her children’s faces.
The birthday event was extensive, catering not only to the children but also to adult family and friends. According to Blank Coba, the menu was a crowd-pleaser, featuring wood-fired pizza and a charcuterie cart, both of which were provided by local vendors. Additionally, a large bounce house and a special station where children could decorate their own cowboy hats kept the young guests entertained.
The party offered a variety of activities that catered to children’s creativity and playfulness. A notable feature was the sensory bin created by Pitter Patter Play, which provided a wonderful, playful experience for the little ones. Blank Coba mentioned, “The kids were sitting in it and playing in it and having such a blast.”
Moreover, the event included whimsical elements that captivated the guests, such as a face painter dressed as Jessie from Toy Story and a bubble show provided by Marmalade Kids Show. Children were further treated to an impressive custom piñata shaped like the number three, alongside other sweet delights like cotton candy and a special dessert bar featuring cakes adorned with images of the twins.
Reflecting on the success of the celebration, Blank Coba articulated a sense of relief and happiness. “You know, you do all this work for three months just hoping that everything goes according to plan,” she remarked. “But once it comes together, it’s everything.” She described the setting as “perfection” and reiterated her satisfaction with how her vision had come to life.
In addition to her role as a mother, Blank Coba is exploring new business ventures while cherishing every moment with her toddlers. Observing their budding personalities has been a joy for her; she noted the distinct traits emerging in her children. “They have their own opinions, which is wild,” she remarked, providing insights into their individual characteristics.
With aspirations for family expansion on the horizon, Blank Coba expressed a desire to enjoy the current family dynamic for now. “I think maybe we want to have one more,” she mused about the possibility of welcoming another child. “So, let’s just really enjoy it, just us four, because who knows what might happen?”
On the professional front, Blank Coba hinted at a potential return to television and possibly back to wrestling. “I haven’t gotten in the wrestling ring since I had the twins, so I think I want to try at some point,” she stated. Her fans will have to wait in anticipation for what the future holds both in her personal life and her career.
The day celebrated not only another year in the lives of Jaxon and Brooklyn but also the shared joy and love that Blank Coba and her family experience. As she navigates motherhood and her various interests, one can sense that her journey, whether in the ring or at home, continues to unfold with excitement.
