Happy Birthday, Katy!

Today we celebrated Katy's 2nd birthday!  It is still hard for me to believe that my baby is already 2 years old!  This evening, we took Katy to Chick-fil-a for dinner.  It was family fun night at Chick-fil-a, so in addition to eating one of her favorite dinners and playing in the play-area, she got to make a special craft (making a firefighter hat) and see the inside of a firetruck.  She was all smiles the entire evening!
 
 
 
 
 
 
After dinner at Chick-fil-a, we took Katy to Build-A-Bear at the mall.  Katy got to pick out and build her own special teddy bear for her birthday present.  She picked out a cute, flowery bunny and had fun helping to stuff, clean and dress her.  She already loves her special bunny and I caught a cute picture of her sound asleep in bed with her bunny by her side!
 
 


 



Below are a few pictures taken at Grandma and Grandpa's house on Easter Sunday when we had a mini birthday celebration for Katy.  As you can tell from the pictures, she enjoyed all the attention!

Happy Easter!

Our attempt to get a picture of Grandma and Grandpa with the
 grandchildren.  Not sure why Jack decided to put a net over his head!

Holly's Baby Shower

We had a great time celebrating Holly and the anticipated arrival of her "little man" (due May 24) this morning.  We decided to use a little man/mustache theme for the baby shower and it was a huge hit!  We all had a good time eating great food, watching Holly open her gifts, and laughing at each other and our goofy mustaches!  I am so happy for Holly and excited that we get to share this special time in our lives together.  Hopefully our babies will grow up to be great friends, just like Holly and I!

Easter egg hunt and decorating

We had a small Easter egg hunt with the neighborhood kids this evening.  Jack and Katy had a blast running around and playing with all the kids and hunting for their eggs.  They were also excited to get their hands on the candy.  Both of them had a mouthful of chocolate when we headed back for home!

All the kids lined up and waiting for the Easter egg hunt to start

Happy girl!

Jay and I, along with the kids, had fun decorating Easter eggs tonight.  Both Jack and Katy decorated their eggs with lots of stickers while Jay had fun using crayons to decorate his eggs.  The kids had a hard time holding onto their eggs and by the end of the night, I think 5 eggs were cracked.  Oh well!  At least we all had fun!
