A Birthday Party!!

We had M1's 4th birthday party last weekend and we all had a blast! We were so thankful that a few of M1's friends could come and celebrate with us.  We had a pool party..thats right a pool party in February.  
We belong to a complex that is a lot like a YMCA so they have a great indoor pool that is very accommodating to young kids. So, without delay here are some shots from the evening:


So fun!!

the pics didn't come out well because of the lighting..my photographer friend was even having trouble. 




Little man was loving the water. 

My good friend, Erin and M2's little friend, Finley.


I was pretty excited about this banner.. I had a good time making it. Will be making another for M2's birthday. 



I was uber excited about this cake!! My friend, Liana helped me. This was my first fondant experience and it went a lot better than I thought..it is not hard to work with. 



Everyone was excited about having cake. I have realized that my little girl is NOT a cake girl. She was supper excited to see it, but she only had one or two bites. She is like her mama...a ice cream girl. 


























It was a great party..definitely one to remember.

4 Years Old! WOW!

Can not believe that our little girl is 4 years old today. It is amazing to see how much she has grown both physically and mentally this year.  I have recently realized that she is not a toddler anymore...it made me a little sad to ponder that for a few moments. I went back and found some videos of her first year of life (tears)....I had forgotten so much.
She was only about 7 months old here in Williamsburg. 



Some milestones of the last year:
~ started dance classes
~ we did a lot of traveling through the year (Charlotte a couple of time, 
drove to Pittsburgh two times, returned to Taxes for a visit, and drove to Tulsa and Memphis
to visit friends)
~ started writing her letters
~ just started pre-school in Jan. 
~ her vocabulary seems to be growing daily
and the things that she says just makes me laugh. 
my favorite word she says is: tomollo (tomorrow)
~ loves having a brother around to love on
~ is getting good on the computer already with Zoodles and PBS
~ she is still a picky eater..she loves cereal and pb&j
~ she comes by her love of sugar honestly

She is a busy, active, and she loves to play, play, play. 
She is running circles around us (literally). 

There is probably a lot more but at this moment but both of my children are crying
 in their beds and I can't concentrate.
