West Park Egghunt

Another year of a fun Easter egghunt at West Park! It was a bit chilly but Emily didnt mind. Any time there are eggs and candy to be had....she is totally game! We followed it up with our annual Brunch afterwards at Cracker Barrel. Emily is actually eating scrambled eggs now so it was nice to see her eat a full plate of eggs, bacon, tators, and a biscuit. Then home for an out of the norm 3 hour naps for all :) GREAT FAMILY DAY!!!

First Sleepover at a Friends

Emily had her first sleepover tonight at one of her best pal gal Fallyn's house. They rented redbox movies, had popcorn late, and even made special Easter cupcakes the next day. She was barely home 10 minutes and took an hour nap. So excited that she had fun but a little sad that they are that old now!

The Letter "Q"

For Show and tell day at school today for the letter of the week "Q"....I allowed Emily to take her special quilt that was made for us after my babyshower. All of the squares were done by family and friends at my babyshower. Then my cousin Mandy took the squares and had the quilt made. What a special show and tell for Emily!!

Spring Photos

Just a little Easter photo fun since it's a lovely Spring Day!

Mommy's Birthday

Another year older! HAHA! Daddy actually had to work all day but I took advantage of hanging out in jammies on the couch finishing up a book on my kindle and starting a new one. I vowed to not clean or wash anything during "my" day. Then around 4:00 Daddy came in with a handful of flowers, drinks, Woodhouse Spa giftcard, and Maple Bacon & Margarita cupcakes. Emily had also picked her own gift out for me...a coconut bay candle. Because she said I love coconut! Thats my girl! Then we showered and headed to Cooper's Hawk Winery for our first but def not last visit. We had an awesome meal and well....awesome pitcher of peach sangria too! Thanks Mom & Jeff for joining us and all that you do :)

Recital Costumes are In!!

Just a sneak peek of the girls trying on their recital costumes as they came in! They were so giddy with excitement! Looking forward to the big day!!!

Breakfast with a Buddy

Emily's class was invited to bring a buddy to class for breakfast. It could be Mom, Dad, Grandparent, etc. So I went with Emily since Daddy started a new building at work and couldnt come in late today. We had bagels and donuts and stayed around to watch them do circle time! It was great seeing them in action with their morning curriculum. Fallyn just happened to be the special person of the week :)

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Emily and Mommy being silly before going anywhere!

Green treats for our guests


Again...another beautiful day!! We decided to get cleaned up and head over to Dooley O'Tooles for lunch. I am a sucker for a good reuben and of course green beer on St. Patty's Day. We didnt want to go out and be caught in a party crowd at dinner so we did lunch and even got a patio seat! Perfect!

Later on John & Laura came over and we ordered pizza and played cards on the back porch. Emily requested we have green snacks and desserts, so we did!
