Grandma's & Julia's Birthday Celebration



This will become our tradition, a joint birthday celebration with Grandma & Julia. We'll definitely have to pencil it in to our weekly birthday celebrations :).




Soon after Grandma arrived we opened presents. It was their party, so if they wanted to open presents first that's ok, right. I thought so.
Julia loved her presents & got to work right away. She received gigantic pooh coloring pages, a really cool round, wheel like coloring tool (see above!), & magic markers. I quickly put the magic markers away. A quick glance at our kitchen wall & you'll know why.

Grandma definitely liked her presents.
We gave her 3 pictures taken over the year all mounted & placed in one frame. Of course they were the cutest ones!

After opening presents we went to Bojangles for our birthday lunch. That's where Ashleigh wanted to go & so did everyone else. It was very delish as usual.

Then we went to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for some tasty birthday treats. They were so yummy, mmm!

Grandma with her girls! I think they all looked pretty happy.

Party games! We picked this game especially because Julia loved it so.

Happy Valentine's Day!

We decided to have a family night in for Valentine's Day, so we had a pizza/craft Valentine's party! While Stewart was at the gym, the girls prepared for the party. No one could decide on a combo pizza everyone would like, so we ordered 3 different ones. Everyone should be happy on Valentine's day, right. Needless to say we had quite a bit of leftovers :). For our craft we each decorated different sized hearts. It was really neat to see our different personalities come through our heart, art project that is. We had a fun night making great family memories!

I'll include pics of our hearts after Stew updates our software. We recently had computer problems.
