FUN WEEKEND!

WOW- we had a really fun weekend with Cayden's 3rd birthday party, and on Sunday we had both of the boys dedicated. We had alot of family come to visit & celebrate with us! It was great. I'm going to be working on getting pictures up in the next few days! :) Thanks to those of you who came to celebrate with us! We really enjoyed ourselves & hope you did too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAYDEN!!

My big boy is 3 today! WOW - where did the last 3 years go? I'm so proud of my little man, he's so smart and kind. I just can't believe he's 3 today. Grammie, Papa, Autie Steph, Charlie, Hope, Alex, Uncle Ryan, and Chance are all here. :) Its been a fun morning and its gonna be a fun day!

We have a bunch of friends & family coming this afternoon for his party, food & cake! I love birthday's and parties and any reason to get together! And its even more fun to celebrate Cayden's birthday!

I went down to his room this morning to check if he was awake & he was pretending to be asleep. I went in & said "IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY!" and he sat up & said "It is?" and I said "yes, your 3" he said "I AM?" and ran upstairs and told everyone "ITS MY BIRTHDAY" :) He's loving his big day. He opened a couple special gifts this morning and has been begging for his "birthday" (he wanted his cake out on the counter to look at)

Okay, I better go get stuff ready! Just am so excited that my big boy is 3!!!!

BISMARCK

We're headed to Bismarck today with our friend Lorisa & her son Kael. Can't wait to get some shopping done! :)

WIPED OUT!

Well the fundraiser last night for Legs for Lorisa went great. We had alot of fun & stayed up way to late (or should I say early?) Regardless, we had a great time and they raised alot of money for NMSS, so it was wonderful!

I'm exhaused today & ready for bed. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get some energy back again!

The last few days in pictures

Our friend Melinda and her two boys came to visit us on Wednesday! We had a really nice time. It was so fun to catch up & let the boys play. Here are a few pics of our visit:

We had a bonfire on Wednesday night, it was so beautiful out all day.

I convinced Melinda to stay & come to MOPS with me on Thursday.

I have been accepted onto the steering team at MOPS for next year. I'm so excited. MOPS has been wonderful for me since moving here, I've met alot of fabulous moms and formed alot of new friendships through MOPS. So I applied for the hospitality position for next year & I got it! I'm so excited to be a part of the team and hopefully make new moms feel how I did coming here. Anywhoo, rambling, I'm just excited to be a part of the team.

After MOPS we had a taco-in-a-bag fundraiser lunch for Lorisa and the MS walk. The MS walk is in Bismarck on May 9th, my family & I are walking for Lorisa's team "Legs for Lorisa" to help raise money to try to find a cure. If you'd like to donate, please contact me and I'll get you all the info you need to donate, or if you'd like to come along & walk just let me know & I'll get you connected up with the team!

Well I better scoot, we've got another busy night tonight! :)

Happy Day!!

YAY! I'm so excited, my friend Melinda from MT is coming to visit today with her 2 boys! I've been looking forward to getting together with her again! We lived in the same town in MT for almost a year and she is a wonderful friend. Her boys are so cute too! I can't wait to see them! And Cayden is so excited to play with Addison and see the new baby Aydan!!

Off to finish some laundry & pick up before she gets here!!!

SUNSHINE!!

I love this sunshine! It's been so beautiful out today. I took the boys for a big walk this morning, then we had coffee with our friend & her girls. Came home & the boys both took a big nap, and we went for another walk & played at the park. Then played in the back yard. I managed to get a little raking done while we were out there too!

The grass has almost a film on it fromt he snow or something. Its been a bugger to rake up, but it sure looks better. Just gotta finish the backyard, then we're all set.
