Happy Valentine's Day!

For Christmas, Brian gave me tickets to see Andrea Bocelli in a special Valentine's Day concert! I have always loved his music, so it was such a special evening together... especially when he brought his 13 year old daughter out to sing with him! 




💕 Thank you to my love for a special evening! 💕

Happy half-birthday Ben!

This guy just turned 12 1/2... Only 6 more months until we have THREE teenagers in the house! 


He may be goofy...




... but he's also super smart and crushing middle school! Way to go Ben!

Best friends!

These pups just get closer every day... literally!


 

Happy 17th Birthday Abigail!

I don't know how time keeps slipping by so fast, but we find ourselves already celebrating Abby's 17th birthday! It was filled with a fun family night out for Lebanese food & a Blue Moon cake, followed by a friend sleepover and Valentine-themed party with neighbors. Thank you for all for sharing the love with us for our girl!




The weekend before her party, we hung out with neighbors and began the decorating adventure in the basement, which always takes me days to finish for our parties!



Abby & Miss Maddie made another killer balloon arch! We're getting really good at them!




Emily helped me make the sugar cookie hearts for everyone to decorate at the party...




All decorated and ready!



Heart-shaped tomato & mozzarella sticks, heart pizza & other treats were fun to have!


Cookie decorating was fun as always...





The kids even decorated special valentines and notes to celebrate Abby!


We enjoyed playing Pictionary & the Fishbowl game with clues about Abby!




We topped off our weekend of celebrations and junk food with some red velvet cupcakes! Thank you everyone for celebrating with us, and Happy Birthday Abigail!



After everyone left and the boys went to bed, we had a fun mom & daughter photo shoot togther!



Happy Birthday Abigail!


Happy birthday Brian!

For Brian's birthday this year, Nannie & Grandpa came for a quick visit and we went out for one of his favorite dinner experiences.....
