Big Girl Trip!

The week after Spring Break my parents took Annalise on a big girl trip. The flew to the mountains and had loads of fun!

They skied-



And snowshoed-






And ice skated (this was Annalise's FAVORITE, she did it everyday)-





And did the jumping thing (I think she did this everyday too!)-



And went sledding-

And built snowmen-











She had the BEST time having Nana and Bubba all to herself. Lots of memories were made!

20 years and counting...

I've been friends with these lovely ladies for 20 years! What a blessing!




Sweet Snuggles...

Elliot really loves Jon, a lot!


Presents for Noey

This year for his birthday Noah wanted ONE thing. The Imaginext Castle with Sir Angus. And the Ogre and the Dragon that go with the Castle. He has played with the Castle probably every day since his birthday. It is so darling to hear him up in his room yelling "Knights of Imanginext, I summon thee!"


 This is one happy boy!

He also got some Batman shirts, another big hit!



Such a fun treat to celebrate our big boy!

Party Party!

We had a joint birthday party for Elliot and Noah this year. I think if there had been less craziness leading up to Elliot's birthday, we could have had separate parties. But, the joint party worked well and was loads of fun.

The one thing Noah wanted for his party was a bounce house. Someone recommended a company to us to rent one from. We ordered for a few hours on Saturday. The company was so awesome and delivered it to us on Tuesday! The kids jumped ALL week! It was awesome!

Here are some pre-party jumping pics. The kids melted into bed every night the bounce house was in our back yard. Total win!

















We kept things super simple for the party. I was worried it might rain but it didn't! Even if it did rain, we knew we'd be okay because the kids had already gotten our moneys worth out of the bounce house.












We had some cake. Noah doesn't like the Happy Birthday song, hence the plugged ears... Elliot LOVED the cake!












It was a super day. We loved celebrating our boys with our friends and family.
