What I’ve been up to…
Well, I promised that I’d post some pics from Father’s Day and here they finally are. We had a fantastic day! We started the day with that delicious meal (that I didn’t eat, of course)….
Mommy ate things less appetizing on Father’s Day… Tuna Fish and salad. But whatever it takes! I’ve lost 10 pounds, y’all!
At the street fair, we had sooooo much fun! There was a neat splash area, snow cones, face painting, t-shirt art, and beer for the daddies!
I happen to be married to the most wonderful, fantastic, loving, sweet, and handsome daddy on Earth.

In other news, I’m getting ready for Noah’s 2nd birthday too! If you lived closer to us, you would probably receive an invitation– copy paper soaked in coffee, then microwaved to dry, then ironed, then put in the printer, then cut, then burned around the edges, then rolled and tied with a pretty red bow. It’s a fun way to invite friend’s to Noah’s 2nd Buccaneer Bash!
I’ve got more time than money, so I’m spending every spare moment thinking of creative ways to make his party the AWESOMEST! I’ve also been making our costumes, which has been mucho fun! I have my skirt all done, and I’m pretty happy with how it turned out so I thought I’d share pics! This isn’t the final masterpiece, but does give you an idea…
I wish I would have gotten a better shot from the front because that’s where it’s the prettiest. But, the party is next weekend, so I’m sure there will be more pics to come. ESPECIALLY of Noah who is going to be the BOMB in his pirate costume! I’m making everyone peasant shirts to go with their bottoms and I have still to make Jeremy’s swashbucklers. I’ve bought pools and sprinklers for the kids, lots of cool pirate themed candies (rock candy, chocolate candy coins, candy necklaces, and candy rings) and and toys that are piratey, and we’re planning a little pirate treasure hunt as well. The cake is going to ROCK because my creative and talented hubby is in charge of that! But I won’t brag too much yet, since it all hasn’t come even close to coming together. Aren’t themed birthday parties soooo much fun though!?
More to come… We’re going camping this weekend so I’ll be back to post some more fun pics and stories!

You are just the awesomest mom ever!!
You’ve lost 10 pounds?? I am beyond jealous! It’s taken me a month to lose 6!
I’m pretty sure that most of that is water, so I don’t know that I deserve too much props. But, I don’t mind that it’s just water because my clothes are fitting better and my love handles are nearly gone! Who needs water anyways!?
i love the water pic, how fun!
i heart you and your life.
From start to finish…
YUMMY!!, awesome photos, love those invitations (you are SO freaking creative), you are HOT HOT HOT… oh, and have fun camping!

OMG that breakfast looks yummy… and did you eat outside? My favorite place for a weekend breakfast.
10 lbs!! Yay, and such resolve, to eat tuna fish while everyone else was pigging out.
Ok, the invites are amazing. Great idea! And the outfit is amazing. I’m sure little Noah knows he has the most amazing Mom and Dad. Those kids have no choice but to be creative! Can’t wait to see party pics.
