Tess's 2nd Birthday!

For Tess's birthday this year we went with an owl theme! We celebrated with cupcakes with the Elenbaas' on the Sunday before and then we had a few friends and moms over for lunch on the Monday.
 The first round of cupcakes!

Tess loved the candle and even blew it out!
 
 Preparations for the next party!
 
 Tess's friends Sadie, Mira, Brooke, Claire, Landon and Jake.
 
 We had a little lunch!
 



 The gift bags. It had an owl necklace and owl craft inside.


 We put the candle on the cupcake again but this time....
 
 Tess didn't like it! She just wanted to eat it.
 

 It tastes better that way anyway.
 
She loved opening presents!
 

 
  These are the gifts from the family. She got my cabbage patch kid babies and basket from when I was little, some bottles for her babies and some princess dive sticks and a bath baby!
 




 Her favorite part was the binky on the baby!

Random extras

Ethan figured since he was on vacation he should wear an eye mask...he did it every night!

There was a funny little bird show everyday and you could hold them afterwards. The kids loved it!

Mexico!

We decided last minute that we needed to take a vacation to Mexico! We called my sister Becky and she was able to come so we booked our trip and went for spring break. It was a fabulous week and the kids were so happy. We spent our time at the beach, pool, enjoying our family and eating good food. The kids loved playing with their cousins and we can't wait to see them again!
