Mom's Birthday!!!

Mom's Birthday was Wednesday but we celebrated it this weekend. Saturday we went to Tucanios  it was so Yummy!! But then we made her Dinner for Sunday!! We bought her this gigantic chocolate cake from Costco it was huge!!!
It was super rich and yummy!! If you ever need a chocolate over load that is what you would need. Then we sang her Happy Birthday and Grandma and Xander tried and tried to blow out the candles. We did not know that I bought the candles that didnt blow out!!! Ha Ha Ha joke on me.

I do not know if you can see the smoke in the room but it got quite a bit of smoke in there. Brad had to open a window. Xander was so cute he said I think the candles are broken they wont go out!! He was so funny when he thought no one was looking he would swipe his little finger across the icing and lick his fingers. He ate a whole piece he loved the icing though.
The chocolate lips says it all!! Happy Birthday Mom. We love you so much and are happy we have you with us!!!

Sping Wreath

It took over 24 yards plus a little more then that probably and it took Lisa and I 3hrs to make. We just got tons of different ribbon and cut it different lengths. It was a 12 inch circle wreath and we just tied them in knots. It was fun to make and the best part of it all it was easy and simple to do.I think the ric rack ribbon really added the pop it needed. My thought in all of this was if I made a spring wreath then maybe SPRING would come and stay.

Park Day!!

My friend Lisa, Christy and I met at the park in Magna with our kids. I traveled to 3 different parks at first trying to find Lisa. Lisa and I had talked about tons of different parks to go to but we got miss communication it was quite funny actually. I called her each time and she wasnt at the parks I went to and finally we found them.  We had such a blast at the park the weather was so nice.

Miss.Bella loved to swing and swing and swing. She asked her mom to come and push her, her mom said that she was going to finish her lunch first Miss.Bella ran off and got onto the swing and said mom come push me please. Xander came to the rescue and started pushing her. Miss. Bella was happy and Xander had fun pushing her.
The Caterpillar Bella new exactly what to do on this one. Xander was not too sure how to do this. He watched Miss. Bella and then I asked him if he wanted to try he would say no a. Then finally he said okay I try. He was so nerves at first but he did it. By the end of the day he was doing it by himself. I wish I could have captured his face when he did it for the first time by himself he was so proud of himself you could tell it was a BIG accomplishment in his eyes.
At the top of the caterpillar there was a slide and the kids would go up and down they had so much fun. This was Xander’s favorite thing to do at the park go up and down the slide.I am so proud of you Xander that you were willing to try new things out even though you were scared at first way to go!!
There was not much for Griffin to do at the park but to watch his Bigger brother and Miss. Bella play one day little guy you will be up and playing with them!! So here he sat in his blue chair and played with some of his toys!! This was Griffins first time being out side for a long period of time he was not to happy but got use to it.
 By the end the kids were tired and all of us adults were sunburned!! Good friends Good times. Xander cant wait to go PLAY again at the park with Miss. Bella.
