So our story begins over 11 years ago in April of 2000 on the beach in Florida! When I went on a weekend getaway w/ my girlfriends little did I know I would be meeting my future husband and the father of our 2 beautiful children Kaden & Kendall. This blog has been created to share our daily life w/ friends & family as well as creating a keepsake diary that my children can one day look back upon. I love to share exciting firsts about the kids, mommy superhero moments as well as the blunders & especially pictures from our parties & travels. I hope that you will enjoy reading about our daily life as well as our journeys and maybe read something that your family might find useful.
As you can tell from the pictures our little princess celebrated her 2nd Birthday w/ an ice cream social. That day was incredibly hot and humid and there were clouds rolling in as we were setting up outside. We got in about 45mins before the lighting started and the whole party...about 35 people... had to move inside! Not as planned! At least everyone made it through the ice cream sundae line before that...however not before the sand art craft! Kendall had also fallen and hit her face on the garage stairs the week of her birthday so her nose and eyes were swollen and bruised :( And she hated the Maggie Moo cow mascot that came along w/ the ice cream caterers! So not the perfect set up, but I look back at her cute little face smiling as she blows out her candle or sits eating ice cream w/ her friends and realize once again it is all worth it.
Let me also mention that our landscaper showed up a week late to cut the grass so the lawn was being mowed as they were trying to set up the white tent and chairs in the backyard. Mix fresh cut grass w/ humid and wet weather and a bunch of sweaty kids not a good combonation! One last bumb in the road...the oh so cute ice cream cupcakes would not sit upright on transport to the party so they all collapsed and had to be reassembled which made for an interesting lesson in decorative frosting for me :)
