Happy Birthday Makayla

Makayla's first birthday

My little girl is 5 years old. I can't believe it. I still remember her first birthday. Time goes by sooooooo fast. Now she is all grown up and ready for kindergarten. Makayla is such a sweet little girl. She is the peacemaker in our family. She gets along well with everyone and is always willing to help out. She still loves to snuggle and sneaks into her sisters room almost every night so that she doesn't have to sleep alone. She is very tenderhearted and enjoys spending time with her friends. She loves preschool and is looking forward to being one of the big kids now. We love you Makayla.

Makayla's fifth birthday


For her birthday we had a fun little family party with aunts, uncles, grandmas, and cousins. She got to spend the day with aunt Jess getting pampered at the salon and then on the day after her birthday we went to see Disney Princess Wishes on Ice. She had a great time. Happy Birthday Meeka.

Special Friend's Day

Hanna's class just celebrated Special Friend's Day. Grandma Barbara was able to join Hanna at school for some fun activities. Then Hanna escorted her down to the lunch room for a gourmet meal of ham and cheese. Thanks Mom.

Viva Las Vegas

Happy Birthday Wendy! Not only did my husband turn thirty, but my sister did also. So I decided for her birthday to surprise her and take her to Vegas for the Weekend. It was so awesome. The surprise totally worked and we had a wonderful trip. We were able to shop, see family, sleep in, see a Cirque du Soleil show, visit all of the touristy spots and enjoy the warm weather. What a much need relaxing vacation. Happy Birthday Sis.

The Big 30!

Happy Birthday Mitch!! OK so I am about a month behind with this post, but I just wanted tell Mitch Happy Birthday. He is the big 30 now. For his birthday we are going to take a trip this spring to California and see Bruce Springsteen (one of Mitch's all time favorites). I am so grateful to be married to him. He is the best husband and father ever. We always have such a fun time together. Here's to you Mitch. Happy 30th:-)

Our New Cousin

Last month I got to go out to Pennsylvania to spend some time with my sister and her new baby. The kids are so excited to have a new cousin (even if they don't get to see him often). Baby Korbin was born on Feb. 13th. Mitch and other family members took care of things here so that I could go and help Heidi out for a week. It was a fun trip. Congratulations Heidi. He is adorable.
