Andrew turns 2!

 Last weekend we had my nephew, Andrew's 2nd birthday party! Since my sister says that I have no posts about her family on here, I thought I would dedicate this post to Andrew :)

I should mention that my sweet sister is a preacher's wife, a full-time nurse, and the mother of 4 children so she stays pretty busy (her smallest child is only 3mo old!). We are very, very different when planning parties. I get a little obsessed over my girls party and start planning at least 6 months in advance. She's very laid back about the whole thing. She usually has a small family party and keeps it really low-key. Maybe I could learn a thing or two from her :)

Back to the party...

Andrew absolutely LOVES Toy Story, so he had a Buzz Lightyear party. I asked her if I could do the cake since I received a Wilton cake decorating set from my mom for Christmas and was very eager to try it out. It turned out pretty good, and I think Andrew was pleased with it!



All the cousins (minus Titus, Seth, & Baby Lydia)




I had to sneak a picture of sweet baby Lydia in here :)

Happy Birthday Andrew!!

My Little Star!

Anyone who is around Maggie long enough knows that she definitely likes to sing and dance. Whenever our family is over, it doesn't take long before she has everyone sit down so that she can perform a ballet dance, gymnastics, or a song. It's adorable and I have TONS of video! I won't bore you with all of it, but I thought I would share this video with you. It's of Maggie and her Sunday School class singing for the church during our last 5th Sunday Singing. We were so proud-she was the loudest one :) I hope you enjoy it!
