Happy 6th Birthday Jordan!!!

So this year for his Birthday, Jordan decided he wanted to have a dinosaur theme. With this dinosaur theme we had to have a volcano cake. I searched the internet for ideas and then I decided to use a few things from different ideas. It turned out fun! I am definitely no professional, but he liked it and I enjoyed doing it! When we were all singing Happy Birthday, we got Jordan trick candles. The kids thought it was hilarious that the candles kept re-lighting. It was a BLAST to watch! I wished I would have video taped it! Here are some pictures for those who couldn't be there.


Opening Birthday presents! Even Paige wanted in on the action.

My favorite present of the evening. : )

What an excited little boy!!!

Here is my attempt at a volcano/dinosaur cake.

Our Sunny Day

So, as most of you know, I have been dying for a warm day so we could all go outside and play. Well, it finally happened. Yesterday was probably close to 50 degrees and we were loving it. It was sunny and warm and we took advantage of it and went outside and played. We got out some toys, had some friends over, and we hung out! It was wonderful and I hope to have many more. It is pretty sad that on our warm days, you can still see snow on the ground. Oh well, I'll take what I can get.

Spring Fever

So I am super tired of the snow and just want it GONE!!!! I want to be able to go outside and sit in the sunshine. I want the kids to be able to play outside so they aren't so crazy indoors. Is this too much to ask??? Well, things have been getting better. Temperatures have been in the 40's (YAY) and the snow is slowly melting, just not fast enough for me! Ryan,. Elly, Paige, and I went to a HUGE indoor sale at a Sports store. We found some really great deals. We bought some wetsuits for the kids and we got Jess a life jacket so she could go boating with us! We are super excited. We had Elly try her wetsuit on (2T) and it was SoOOOO cute! She didn't want to take it off.

Summer PLEASE get here!!!
