Austin

austin was a BLAST!!! no like seriously, we had such a great time. i am going to venture out to say out of all the vacations we went on this summer, this took the cake. i was nervous going into it, because i thought "oh no... what are we going to do for 11 days..." welp that wasn't the problem folks i was nervous to come home and have to get back to work. we stayed with todd and heather and had WONDERFUL accommodations and (lots of help with the kids). the kids played really well together and literally all day long. so when mylie woke up in the morning she was quietly slip out of my room, go play and let shay and i sleep as long as we wanted. i could almost count on her being fed as well before i came down. awesome i tell you! so some of the greats of austin...

this year mylie decided that she wanted to have a

pinkalicious tea party for her girl friends.

it turned out really fun. we had 9 girls over

to our house and had the cutest tea party ever.

everything was pink, including the homemade bread

i made for the sandwiches. after we read a couple pinkalicious

books and headed outside to play pink, pink, pinkalicious

instead of duck duck goose. after we played pin the

heart on the necklace...so girlie. we had a great time.

happy 2nd shay baby!

we had such a fun little birthday party for shay.

we rented a little blow up jumper for the littles and ate our little hearts out...

i made a whole lota goods and just had some neighbors over and let her just run and be 2!

she wanted wendy's for dinner because she is obsessed with

chicken nuggets, fwench fwies, and spite.

shay is a ham. i have not met many that don't just love shay.

her little body that looks like a grown up just shrunken.

her cute teeth and how she talks. she is smart as can be and we love her to pieces.

she talks so well for being 2 and LOVES to sing.

we went swimming in the afternoon with some of her neighborhood pals.

it was such a fun day. we love you nugget!!! happy birthday!
