Hubs 35th birthday: part 2

Happy "official" birthday Logan!!!! Stryker & Lake couldn't wait to give daddy their painted pictures  Saturday morning. They were so proud of the pictures & of course Lake had to tell daddy every detail of both pictures! I had given Logan his birthday card the night before but he was able to open his present of Peter Millar cologne Saturday morning. Coco came to keep the kiddos until about 2pm so we could spend time at the Parade of Homes. I surprised Logan with lunch at Genghis Grill! After arriving back at home, we spent the rest of the afternoon outside! Can't keep our family indoors!

Hubs 35th birthday: part 1

Happy Birthday my handsome hubs!!!! I started my Friday off work schedule this week which was perfect timing to celebrate my hubby's birthday over a long weekend. I had an eventful weekend planned for this special occasion. Friday morning & early afternoon was spent alone while our kiddos were at school. Bargain Hunt was our destination (we have heard about it but have never been). We walked up & down every aisle. Logan's dream way of shopping. Yes, I meant that seriously. I am not the shopping type but enjoyed the alone time with my hubs. We found a vanity table for LakeLynn, sand-water wheel play table for Stryker & LakeLynn, 4 shorts for Stryker, & 2 movies for the long car rides. What better way to celebrate your birthday than buying our children toys?! We wouldn't have it any other way. We couldn't wait to see their little faces when they entered the house & enjoy the time together playing with the new toys. LakeLynn also got a new pair of sandals for the summer. The water table was set up in the kitchen due to the colder weather.

Baby shower for Colt Helland

Our family was able to celebrate the soon arrival of Colt Patrick Helland. After church, we headed from Cullman to our wonderful friends' house in McCalla. Stryker always loves playing with Lucy. Appreciate the invite to the cookies & milk baby shower. Can't wait to welcome Colt in a couple of months!

Logan's early birthday present

Logan's 35th birthday is this Saturday, April 5th. Coco gave early birthday presents this weekend which Stryker & LakeLynn enjoyed unwrapping for daddy! Logan received 2 Peter Millar shirts!!!!

Eye exam with kiddos...

Stryker & Lake were perfect angels during my rather lengthy eye exam (every eye appt is lengthy for me & my bad eyes). They started out playing on their own computers followed by switching computers, sharing computers, looking at the decor on the walls (who can resist enlarged pics of eyes?!), playing with a contact case & my glasses case, & finally loving on each other. Afterwards, daddy & I took our precious children to Chick-fil-a to eat an early dinner & play!

Let's tap!

Washing the car

LakeLynn loved the bubbles outside while daddy washed the truck. Not surprising since she LOVES bubble baths!
