35 Freaking years!

Celebrated my 35th Birthday this year. Jer surprised me with a nights stay at the anniversary inn and a night without kids! It was wonderful and something we need to schedule in more often! I love that he is so thoughtful!

Since Melissa and I didn't have husbands on our actual birthday we spent the afternoon together at the park with the kids. 

What would a birthday be without a paradise cookie being involved!! 

Logan turns 5!

Goose-a-rellie is 5! It really is crazy how time flies! I remember the day we had our little shrek baby that came out honking like a Goose!! He is super sweet, easily makes friends and gets along with everyone-except his brother, struggles to eat dinner, but can clean me out at lunch time, is all about matching his outfits so he will have a green shirt on and green shorts or an orange shirt and orange shorts, or a red shirt and red shorts...you get it, but I love it about him, tends to cry when stuff doesn't go just right but is getting better about talking it through, loves to cuddle and have you watch him play the Wii, loves to draw and is really good at it, I love the way he says certain words like four or party, loves to ride bikes and cross the monkey bars, scares me to death with his flips on the tramp, is a great little soccer player, loves my pancake in the morning, his favorite color is orange, favorite food is nutella toast, loves to help, is a great big brother to Lacey, still is our clumsy breakable child, loves to read books before bed and won't go to sleep till I lay with him, loves legos and the flash, is the most tender hearted little boy and I am so grateful to be his Mother!!

Happy 5th Birthday Goose!

We pretty much celebrated Logan's birthday all weekend! 

The spanking machine. 

Silly string and balloons!

Group effort on opening presents. 

The biggest surprise of all, a power wheels 4-wheeler! 

We had lunch at Wendy's his request. 

All he wanted to do for his birthday was go fishing. I called missy and she hooked us up with a great little spot, pole(aka sticks), hooks, string, and bait! It was a enjoyable evening catching little fish by the dozen! 

Happiest of Birthdays to my goose-a-rellie! 

Logan's Race Car Party!

We usually only celebrate on even years with friends but we didn't do a friend party last year and Goose called us out on it. So he got a "wace" care party this year! It was a crazy two hours, but Logan was happy as punch after! Here's the decor. 

We had race down the track. 

Pop the balloon. 

A piñata. 

And brownies and Ice cream!

Getting the kids to sit down while gifts were open was a joke! So we let them do it their way! 

I love these crazy kids! 

Family Pictures 2016!

Memory Monday!

Leah has been super helpful with Lacey lately. It's even better when Lacey lets them match!! 

Loving our garden and its been very Harty this year! Kids love searching for any new growth! 

Loving having any time with dad lately! He is truly the best dad ever!! 

Hail storm and the kids thought it was awesome! 

I think he's ready for surveillance:)

Rain boots, jackets, and the tramp! Perfect combination! 

Trying to get one with Lacey looking at the camera! 

He and her make-up. 

I took a bit of her cake and this was the face I got! 

Furrowed brow and hand on hip-I love this one!! 

Played Drew!

Someone upgraded to a big girl bed-mybaby is growing up!
