Happy 2nd Birthday Callen!

November 15, 2016:  This sweet boy!  I love getting to watch him one day per week.  He's so smart and funny (and mischievous!).  I missed his 2nd birthday due to being in *Africa* but I did enjoy making him some special cookies before I left!   

Happy Birthday Kinnick

November 4, 2016:  Because of our Africa trip, Marc and I were going to be gone on Kinnick's birthday. I told him we could plan his party early so we would be able to celebrate before we left.  This year he decided on a Lego-themed skating party.  We had all the boys meet at our house and enjoyed a little Lego building contest, cookie cake, and presents.  Next, it was on to Family Fun zone for skating, pizza, laser tag, and arcade games.  We had such a fun night.  This was also how I got to enjoy MY birthday.

  

Aunt NeeNee came to help out!  She spent time hanging out with the girls and Carver so Marc and I could host K's party!

We made Lego cookies for take-home favors!

Vance Turns 1!

October 1, 2016:  We had such a fun trip to stay with my sister and help her prepare for Vance's first birthday.  Everything was absolutely adorable from the naked cake to the little buffalo plaid shirts worn by Henry & Vance.  The kids had a blast in the bounce house and playing with their cousins.  I had fun making some lumberjack themed cookies for the occasion (and enjoyed getting cake pops from my dear friend Sarah!)  I absolutely love first birthday celebrations.  I enjoyed taking pictures of Vance as he loved every bit of his cake smash...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know I'm partial, but THIS. KID.  He's the cutest!
