1..2..3...JUMP!

presents!

cheesecake!

balloon poppin' game!

and of course the birthday girl won!

Friends are the Best!

Mitchell was in the hospital (again) on my birthday :(

But my friends are the best! They took me to On The Border, my favorite restaurant, and then we went to The Pub. I know what you're thinking what is a good mother/wife/LDS girl going to a pub for. Well, I turned 21, that's why!! Even if I don't do what most people do when they turn 21 I can still celebrate right?

Flowers from my SIL and fam. Thanks guys! I love them!

There it is.


We bought fake hair, I got aqua and Keri got pink!

Riker's 2nd Birthday Party!

We had Riker's birthday party this year at Tom Brown Park, and it was a Cars theme (of course). He had tons of fun playing with all of his friends and he loved the cake part of it!

The invitations!

My friend made these really cute "drivers licenses" for each kid that came, we used them as nametags. I love how they turned out!

I had a craft set up for the kids to make license plates, Riker wasn't too into it but everyone else was.

Riker and Erin waiting for cake.

The cakes, Whitewall Tires, just like Lightning McQueen gets in the movie.

Make a wish!

He loved the cake.

Swing, Swing, Swing

Presents!

He had some dirty feet after playing at the park all day!

Valentine's Day Party

At playgroup this week we had a Valentine's Day party! Riker got to dip pretzels in chocolate, frost a cookie, and got his first valentine. He had tons of fun, I love watching him grow up.

Dippin' em.

The finished product.

Beautiful frosted cookie.

Yum!

Superbowl Sunday

I have never sat down and watched a whole Superbowl. And I'm never planning on it because I don't understand football and I don't think I ever will. But this year Mitchell made some amazing food and we all sat down and watched it (I watched like the first half of the first quarter ha). It was our own little Superbowl Party! I loved it. I know most people in our church don't watch the Superbowl because it's on Sunday, but to me it's a fun family tradition to have. Plus, I get chicken wings..yum. I documented this fun-filled event as follows--

What was Daddy thinking putting this food out, and telling him he couldn't have any yet?

Like Mother, Like Son. I love me some Diet Sunkist.

The delicious meal. But seriously those chicken wings were basically fire. No joke. I thought my lips and tongue were going to fall off.

Riker Superbowl dinner. Who turns down a corndog? Please.

We actually let Riker have soda..I know..I gave in. And he sure as heck downed this in like 3 minutes.

It was a super fun Superbowl night. Next year we need to invite some other people so it's a "real party"--in the words of my sister "Its not a party if the only people there are people that live there"--way to bring me down Hannah, way to bring me down.

A Mayday in December

Keri's friend bought her tickets to a Mayday Parade show that was last night. She asked me to go with her, I didn't know hardly any of their songs but I went anyway. They are from Tallahassee, and Keri went to school with some of them. But it was a really fun concert! I'm definitely going to learn their songs now!
