Happy Birthday Regan!

My niece Regan turned 11 today! She had a Twilight themed slumber party on Saturday. My friend Dawn made the cakes and they turned out great! We went by for pizza and cake, but we left before the party really got started. They went to the movies and did a scavenger hunt at Walmart. I am sure they kept my sister up all night and had a lot of fun!

had her first pigtails!

Yard Work

Brianna is a big helper! Jason went out to do work in the yard and of course Brianna offered to help.

Sleep Over

Last weekend my niece Avery and Brianna had a sleep over. They had so much fun! They did their hair and makeup and played until they crashed at about 11:00. Brianna got this tent for her birthday last year and we set it up so the girls could sleep in it. They had so much fun with it we decided to leave it up. Addison has been enjoying it too! Look at that pink eyeshadow!

Happy Easter!

We had a very busy Saturday so my kids were completely worn out on Easter morning. Also, Addison's ears were still bothering her. We had a nice day, and we took a LONG nap this afternoon, but I didn't get the best pictures. Oh, and by the way, the tiara was not supposed to go with Brianna's Easter outfit, but I decided to just let it go. The girls with their Easter baskets.

Addison's Birthday Party

We had Addie's first birthday party this weekend. We had such a good time! The weather was perfect! It was a great day, even though Addie is still fighting a double ear infection and had two shots the day before! Thank you to everyone that celebrated with us on our little girl's first birthday!

The smash cake that Aunt Amy, Aunt Annette,

and Daddy let her dig into a little early!

She LOVED her cake! Thanks Mrs. Dawn!

She didn't want to stop eating, but Daddy
finally decided to cut her off. She wasn't

happy!

Pictures

My mom and I took the girls to get their pictures done at Kiddie Kandids tonight and I love the way the turned out. We ended up buying more than we planned, but we do that every time we get their pictures done!
