6 Years!

Happy Anniversary to the most wonderful husband and dad to our three precious boys!  I feel very blessed that I have had the joy of being married to you for 6 years!  I can't wait for many more fun times ahead of us!

Our wedding day

Belle Meade Methodist School Fun Run

The boys had their school fun run on Friday and they were so cute!

Peyton "ran" around the track with Ms. Asthma. Their class had to hold hands with a teacher and he was so excited and was just pulling Ms. Asthma the whole time. I think he definitely would have run on his own if they would have let him.

Patrick's class was up next. His teachers had taught them the rules, but apparently Patrick didn't quite understand the rules or he was just too eager to win. He didn't stay in the lines at all and it was so funny!

And a little video of Patrick. Unfortunately we didn't get a good video of Peyton's class because they were in such a pack it was hard to tell who was who.

Peyton was too upset because he thought we were leaving to be in a picture, so I only have a picture with my big boy.

Conor's First Trip to the Zoo

Michael took a couple of paternity leave days for my birthday and our anniversary, so we decided to take the boys to the Zoo. Patrick was really really excited to see the tigers. When we got to the tigers there was a sign that said one of the tigers was in time- out for being too aggressive. Patrick was so curious as to what the tiger did to go into time out. It was pretty funny. 

They were also excited to see the giraffes and elephants

My three little boys

Conor's Baptism

Sweet little Conor's baptism was this weekend. We had a great time celebrating with family and friends. 

My sweet little family

The boys were great all during mass, but as soon as mass was over they were ready to go. Can you tell from Patrick rolling his eyes in this picture!? They were little terrors during the baptism and Grumps had to take out Patrick from the baptism because he was complaining he wanted to go home.

Hanging out with my little buddy post baptism

I forgot to take a picture of the table and decorations. We had Monell's cater and it was awesome!  

I made these little food signs the morning of the baptism

This little cutie having a post brunch snack. My boys rarely like to wear clothes, must be a boy thing

And two minutes later, out like a light

Patrick's 4th Lego Birthday Party

Since Patrick and Peyton's birthday's are so close together, I always seem to push back Patrick's party a few weeks. We celebrated his "friend birthday" (as he would call it) this weekend with a Lego party. 

The weather prediction was rain all day, but it ended up being a beautiful day for his party (even on the hot side). It started raining very hard just after his party, which was so lucky!

Party setup without the food

Picture of the setup with the food. I didn't get any detailed pictures of the food (my camera broke right before the party- so all of these are not my own pictures), but we had Lego Pizza, stuffed crust pizza bites (since they were such a hit at Peyton's party), Chick-fil-a chicken nuggets (Patrick's favorite), fruit, popcorn (another of Patrick's favorite), Lego man marshmallow pops, lego cupcakes, lego rice krispie treats, and lego brownies.

Patrick helped me make this Lego picture frame for the party

We made this Happy Birthday out of Patrick's lego mini figures

Marshmallow lego pops. The two Lego men on the side are candy

I forgot to take a picture of the cake on the table, but below are the pictures the baker sent me of the cake. If you ever need a great cake, Wendi of Sugar Lump Cakes did a fantastic job!

The party favors

I made little coloring book packages with some pictures I found on the internet and made mini figure lego crayons

I also had leftover lego brick candy from making the cupcakes so decided to make those into party favors as well

The drinks. We also had a juice box station with juice boxes as Lego's, but I didn't get a picture of it

The photo booth

We didn't actually do the Lego Spoon race, but I didn't get a picture of any of the food signs so this shows what the cute little food signs looked like

The front of the door. The sign says Come Build at Patrick's Legoland

Love my sweet little Peyton

Peyton had such a good time playing with his great uncle David

And the most fun of all is the slide

Love this birthday boy

So many little boys in Patrick's class

Great grandparents

Time to cut the cake

Peyton was a fan of the juice boxes, pizza and chicken nuggets

We forgot about the piñata until the party was almost over and a few had already left. Glad we remembered it

Patrick helped me put the candy in the piñata for his party and he asked if he could draw notes for each of his friends and put them in the piñata. So there were about 20 of these "people" he drew for his friends. So precious!

Big giving Peyton and Virginia a ride in the wagon

And after the party, Peyton got to have a little fun with the uncles going down the slide

Peyton didn't like the Lego marshmallow pops, but he thought it was really fun to carry one around most of the party and talk to the Lego pop….hysterical!

When I asked Patrick if he had a good time at his party, his response was "No, because it had to end." Glad he had so much fun!
