A Whirlwind of Birthdays

Whew! The weekend is over and I'm pooped this Monday morning!

This weekend was birthday party central in our house. My Grandma Ruby had her birthday party on March 17th and mine was on the 18th. We have always celebrated our birthdays together and I've always loved that so the few years we lived in Italy were sort of sad. I really missed having our birthdays together. So this year was awesome!!! The girls had to dress up in their best GREEN duds for St. Patrick's Day complete with St. Patty's bows and barrets. There was going to be no pinching going on here!

Turns out it is Auntie Edna's birthday in a few days as well so we really had some celebrating going on. Auntie Elaine and Uncle Larry showed up to surprise Grandma as well.

We even lucked out as Grandma's neighbour Wanita just had a new baby miniature goat born on Wednesday evening so we had to finish off the festivities by stopping by her house on the way home to see this little guy. Isabella loved picking it up but Sofia was just happy petting it a little. He was just the cutest little thing!

It was an awesome birthday filled weekend!

Isabella's Rapunzel Party

Well, we sure had a busy weekend. Our oldest daughter just turned 5! Yes 5 years old. Oh where has the time gone? It seems like only yesterday my husband was driving me to Emergency in his tour bus.... yes you all heard (or read) me correctly... a TOUR BUS of all things!
Hubby was supposed to leave early in the morning for a tour and Isabella decided she didn't feel she needed to stay in there any longer (3 weeks early as a matter of fact). Since my hubby was supposed to leave really early, we had gone to leave the car at the garage and get the bus. Those were the only wheels we had to drive!Off we went. Well did we get some worried looks when we pulled up to the door. I think they were super happy to see it was only little old me in there as it was midnight by now.
So that was our excitement for Isabella's birth. Did I mention she even got to ride in an ambulance a week after she was born too? Yep, momma here had to go back to the hospital and as hubby was away working, I had to find some sort of a chauffeur!Oh what a story she has to tell.
So anyways, I thought I would share some cute printables and party decorations we had for Miss Bella's party.Bella wanted a princess party and as we just got the Tangled movie for Christmas, Rapunzel was her princess of choice. It was a cute little party and everyone had a lot of fun. Can't wait till our next party... Oh yeah, that's next weekend for Grandma Ruby and myself! Grandma needs a St. Patty's Day theme for her birthday and mine, well, I'll just be happy with some sort of sweets and celebrating it again this year with Grandma! That's always been my favorite present for my birthday... celebrating with my grandma!

Sunday Morning Serenity



Morning!


I'm totally relaxing today! Last night we had an awesome "Belated Christmas Party Supper" for work and went to the wonderful Bruce Hotel for a mouth watering steak and shrimp supper and buffet. These people know how to cook! We've heard people from the city excited about booking a reservation way out in the hicks for a yummy Friday night steak supper. See this place only does supper on Friday nights and occasionally on Saturday nights too and these people are always BOOKED UP! There's like a waiting list. This place is uber hick and it rocks. Old record cases framed and mounted on the wals, old milk cann, old furniture and some of the tables are even made from the old pedal sewing machine bases.


Anyways, we all had a great time and filled our bellies to maximum capacity so today I'm laying around doing nothin!


I thought I could pop over here as it's been a while since I wrote a little ditty on here....


Not too much new. We added a cute BUG invitation to the shop and I bet you could make the most adorable party for any girls or boys!


Here it is! Have a great Sunday!
Here is a little Valentine's Freebie for everyone. Use them as cupcake topers or tags!

What a Whirlwind!

This is what happened after this:
It was a busy weekend. We had a lot of fun and I'm sure my neice and nephew are absolutely pooped out! We also got a chance to get together with my brother-in-law's family which means a lot of other boys for the kids to play with. Miss I totally hit it of with Little Big Man M. They played the whole time we were over at the Fawn's house.... no arguing, no "I wanna do this not that" just a lot of busy playtime. Miss S even got in on it too for a bit. There was also a dog in the house for Miss S to warm up to. That took quite a while but finally she took to Jake.
