Ethan and Sadies b.days!

They both had Parties this year Sadie was a princess party and Ethan had Cars 2 party! Very fun, Loved making there cakes one of my most favorite things about b.days!

Mitchell is ONE

I know lots of pictures... but he is our little cutie- we love him so much and can not believe how fast this year has gone- Our oven door came off the beginning of this week, so I had nowhere to cook my cake and so my dear friend Beth who I visit teach let me cook the cupcakes there. Then she offered to let us use her house to have him a little party- with well just us and Beth and Brogan- It was fun! He was so cute.

Mitchell Likes:
to dance.. you will not ever see him hold still if there is any type of beat
to scream.. mostly to get what he wants
to snuggle with mom
to play with Sadie and lay his head down on her
to bite all the tips off of Ethan's Nerf darts
to be toasted on the couch by dad
to take a bath or shower... I find him in there all the time
And to walk.. yay he is now walking and getting very good it is funny how once they get it they just take off.
He says Mow- meaning more...
Mama
Dada
Dat- meaning what's that?
and he jabbers and sings which I just LOVE

last year in the 20's

This year I wanted to do something fun for Erik because he has been working and going so hard. So I did a surprise party for his 29th birthday, it was a surprise until Ethan the night before said, "Please bless dad will be surprised at his surprise party. and then looks and me and said oh sorry mom" and I just bust up laughing.

 The spread, Fruit, mini Cherry Cheesecakes, Snickers Cake, and ice cream

Some of the guests, My friend Teri is who's house we did this at, and I dont even have a picture of her or her husband Jake. They were a big help, got water balloons ready for the kids and Jake is a DJ so he had some good music going on in the back ground. There in the back is Craig, Erik's mission buddy that was the biggest surprise. 

Erik said that was the  best Birthday he has ever had so I guess I did it right this year.

Big five

He's five, my baby boy is 5!

He wanted to have a Wall.e party and so what better thing to do then watch the move... no work in that, right?  Well funny thing is- They didn't even watch Wall.e I did a switcharew and watched How to Train A Dragon, I think Wall.e is boaring and we hadn't seen How to Train A Dragon so there you have it. And it was great!!

They had Pizza and bread stick's then popcorn and after the movie we did the cake and ice cream. 

And this is what you get when you ask another little kid to take your picture!!

They only get the person they care about in it. 

So I made someone else take a picture and Ethan wouldn't smile... 

I don't really know what he is doing!

He was done with the pictures, And I only wanted a good one of us... didn't get one..

His friends and cousins 

Ethan has been on a Wall.e kick this year, hence our Halloween costume 

which we left in Preston, if I would have known he wanted a Wall.e b-day I would have brought it home... And one other thing.. Took it to P-town for Halloween and he didnt even wear it! 

Anyways...

This time he wanted Wall.e in his box with just his eye's peering out.. I added the wheels with the extra cake..

The Favors were rice crispy treats with a letter E on them for Ethan or Wall.e. And yes that is what I did for Sadie's Party I had extra.. And had to think fast. 

We had a great time and his friends were so nice, he got exactly what he wanted.. Lego's and that is what he has been playing with the every day since. (And his dad has been playing with every day since.)

Sadie's Minnie Mouse Clubhouse Birthday Party!!

Sadie chose Mickey Mouse Clubhouse birthday party for her party after I found it off my cousins blog..But I turned it into Minnie mouse clubhouse.

We made invitations that looked like the Minnie Mouse ears:

Picture to come.. 

After everyone arrived, I asked all of them if they have ever seen the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse shows. I then asked, "What do you say when you want the clubhouse to appear?" Everyone yelled: Meeska Mooska Mickey Mouse! I then played the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse music...."It's the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, come inside it's fun inside....."

I told them that we were going to have toodles come and help us with Sadie's birthday party. So everyone yelled: "Oh toodles!"

Each picture represented a game that we were going to play. The first mouseketool that was picked was: HOT DUCK. We passed Donald around the circle. while "Hot dog, Hot dog, hot diggity dog was playing... If I would have had a pluto it would have worked better... but it was like: (hot potato)

The next mouseketool picked was: PLUTO. Pluto represented Pluto, Pluto, Ruff:  (duck,duck, goose)

MICKEY MOUSE was the next mouseketool. Mickey represented musical ears. There were Mickey pictures on the ground with pictures of: Minnie, Mickey, Goofy, Pluto, Donald, Daisy, Chip & Dale, and Toodles. We played music and when the music stopped everyone picked an ear to stand by.

The next mouseketool picked was: MINNIE MOUSE. Minnie represented pin the bow on Minnie.

 Each child got a chance to see how close they could get it right on Minnie.

There was one more moseketool and it was the mystery mouseketool. We took off the ? and we saw Mickey Mouse holding a present. 

It was time for Sadie to open her presents!

WOW, she was spoiled! She was given tons of stuff! Thank you to all her friends!! They definitely know what she likes!

After presents, I told them that we had a picture puzzle to put together. We sang, "Picture Puzzle, Picture Puzzle, picture this." (I know we watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse WAY to much!)

I told the kids that his meant it was time for cake (really cupcakes) and ice cream. And cheetos because thats what mice eat?? hee, hee Im so funny!

I had them color there blow things.. note to self.. blow things bad idea.. they would blow them right in your face and there spit would come out with it! 

After everyone was done with their treats, it was time to go home. Sadie gave everyone a minnie, or micky mouse crispy treat we dipped the ears in chocolate and the girls got pink tootse rolls as bows, with a real bow they could wear in there hair, and the boys got a card game!

Thanks for stopping by! Sadie

But here I am another year older, and hopefully for my birthday wish I will have this baby!!
Tonight my friend was celebrating her 30th and I tagged along and kept it on the down low that it was my b.day but it was so fun to go out with some friends!  I know I have a cheeser of a smile..

Sadie and Ethan's b-day "way late"

Her cake is so sad to me but I ran out of time. She enjoyed it just as much, but we had just

a little get together with the inlaws for both Ethan and Sadie this year. Sadies b-day was on the 13th and Ethan's the 30th of Nov. so yes I am late. Its because I dont have a working computer!!! ggrrrr

Ethan told me how to make his cake and it was so fun to try fondant for the first time, it was so easy and very easy to make as well!

Ethan got my most favorite book of all time "Little Black Sambo"

He loves it just as much as I do and did!

and he got some more David Shannon books that I love as well.
