Bday week

It seems my birthday lasted for a week! My parents came over for dinner on thursday and brought a Dairy Queen icecream cake. Then on Saturday we went out with my sisters and had a great dinner at Bandera and then to a comedy club in old town Scottsdale. It was so much fun, we asked ourselves why we don't do this more often. I finished the weekend up with family barbeque at the in-laws and am now officially OVER bday cake!

Special Day

Today was my 35th bday and it was full of great surprises. It started off with Shawna buying me breakfast and a balloon, my wonderful husband surprising me with starbucks, bagels, scones and cookies for everyone at work, Macayo's delivered for lunch, tons of well wishes from friends and family and then the BEST gift ever. I was able to take care of and deliver my best friends baby on my bday. Phoebe Mae Cain. Jen did amazing and Phoebe is just beautiful. I even got to go home a little early. When I got home more hugs and kisses from my girls. Madelyn made me a bracelet and a special card. Just when I thought it could not get any better, Jason pulls my favorite ice cream out of the freezer (Cold Stone). Thanks to everyone who made my day so fun!

First's

Tea Party

Saturday we had a real tea party with GG Loe, Nana and Aunt Danelle. The girls were so excited to go to a REAL tea house. They picked out their dresses and purses for our tea party. We went down town the historical distric to an old victorian house that is now called the Teeter House. Great food, tea and decor. They had a great time feeling like big girls. I am loving having girls :)

(btw Sara has a black eye if you are wondering ):

Lunch Date

Yesterday Sara and I picked up Great Grandma Loe (Jason's Grandma visiting from Ill.) and brought Madelyn's favorite (Chick fil A) to school to have lunch with her. Grandma was treated like royalty by all the teachers and friends. Funny thing, I learned that Madelyn is quite the hoola hoop expert. I did not even know she knew how to do it. It was cool to see her in her world when I am not around.

Valentine Fun

It was a great Valentine weekend. Jason and I had a nice night out on Friday night that we called "unvalentines" day. Saturday the girls and I made cupcakes, YUM. Then we had a great time at the Railroad park with Jason's Grandma and family. Just so thankful for the loves of our lives :)

If you give a Mouse a cookie

Jason's grandma is in town for 6 weeks from Chicago and last Sunday we took the kids to see If you give a mouse a cookie at the Phoenix Childrens's little theater. It was so cute and the girls loved it. It was their first time going to a play. We have lots of things planned to do with Great Grandma Loe while she is here :)
