JULY 22? I'm a sad mommy for not keeping up with this...

We have birthdays to talk about though, so get ready for some pictures!

Caydree is now 5, and Calder is 2!! I can't believe my babies are growing up, but I love it!

Caydree's special day will be 1st...

Started off our morning with the traditional good morning sunshine birthday wake-up photo. Can't believe I actually got a smile!

Celebrated at school with her Kindergarten friends, a crown and some popsicles!

Grandma and Grandpa picked her up (yay for living close enough to spend some time with us!) and took her for a cool frozen yogurt treat, then home to the sweetly 'birthday girl' decorated (thanks Grandma) house! Then we had Chinese take-out and cake!

This year, Caydree had a tea party for "just girls, no boys." It was a hit, she helped me plan all of the goodies and decor on Pinterest. HAHA, she is addicted to "looking" for stuff she likes! ;)

Pom-poms and beaded necklaces...oooh, la, la!

Treats, treats, and more treats...

A tea party table for a princess and her friends!

Mommy and the birthday girl. :)

Grandma planned some FUN games, like pin the teacup on the saucer...

She also read the girls a fun version of "I'm a Little Tea Pot".

It was a fun day, and the birthday girl went to bed happy!!


OK, now for the little man's turn....

Grandma and Grandpa got the morning pic for me...

yummy strawberry shortcake for dessert!

our traditional BBQ party...the food is always good...

when the drinks were gone, the ice tub made a refreshing bath...

which turned into more water play, so Calder was pretty wet! It was a fun day!
