twenty seven!!!

My birthday weekend was unending and full of fun. Friday night was Fun Family Time with a pizza, playing at the park, Tangled, a blanket camp out in the living room and cuddling. Saturday night was a night out with wonderful friends at San Tan Flats Saloon and Steakhouse. Sunday was a family lunch out and an evening of backyard play, grilling and red velvet cake, my fav!!! Monday was a play date at THE best coffee shop and breakfast picnic with friends and tonight is dinner out with my little family!!! What an extravaganza!!! It has been very special to celebrate so many times and with so many people. WAHOO, if this is what 27 is like, bring it on BABY!!! Lol

Favorite moment of my birthday... my sweet daughter sang "Happy Birthday" to me 1, 458 times. It is so fun that she enjoys celebrating my birthday with me!

Today was absolutely GREAT! The weather. The party. The family. The friends. I couldn't have asked for more for my little guy. I loved planning Brady's first birthday. I chose Sesame Street and I am so glad I did. The colors and characters made it very fun! B Man loves Elmo. He bounces up and down as soon as Elmo appears on Sesame Street in the morning. The decorations and plate/napkins were either handmade or from Dollar Tree! I scored big on a roll of wrapping paper that consisted of colorful stars and characters. That became my inspiration, and of course my little man!
