Busy Weekend

I'm sorry that I haven't been posting as much as I used to. Facebook has hijacked my attention over the last couple of months and I've been spending more time over there. However, for those of you who haven't gotten in on the FB craze, I thought I'd at least update over here. We had a wonderful weekend in Puyallup celebrating the May and June birthdays. There were five to celebrate, including Cade and Alayna. We had a beautiful warm day for the party, which was at Tammy's house (Chad's sister). I forgot to take my camera, so unfortunately I don't have any great pics to post, but my MIL took some great ones, so if you are on FB, you can view some of the pics of us from my profile page.

So, details: Alayna got fun art supplies and lots of Dora the Explorer gear including a bathing suit, dinnerware set, a Dora doll and "Backpack" (the character, not an actual backpack). Cade got some cute clothes and toys, his favorite being a set of keys that has all kinds of buttons to push on the keyless entry part. He held it the entire way home. Alayna played with Backpack the entire way home.....I practically had to pry her little hands off to get ready for bed! ;o)

It was a great weekend, although I've completely lost my voice due to the sickness that has gone through our family, forcing me to lose precious sleep. Hopefully I'll rebound soon and takes lots of new pics to post!

Crashed Out

Some days when Alayna is cranky and I know she just needs a nap, I'll just throw the kids in the car and go for a little drive. Here's a pic of what I saw upon arriving home after one such excursion!
