Karter's 4th Birthday Party

What a busy weekend! Friday was the girls actual birthdays. We had a party at Karter's school on Friday. She was so excited when we showed up with balloons, cupcakes & ice cream. Madison had to go to her dads for the evening so we took Karter to eat at Mama Rojas. After dinner we walked down to Louie's to listen to live music. Karter got out in front of the stage and danced and then got up on stage once to make sure everyone was watching her. She's such a little Ham!

Sunday afternoon was Karter's friends/family party. We had over 40 people at our house. It was a little chaotic at times, but lots of fun. We had a moon bounce in the front driveway and then a face painter on the back porch. The face painter did an awesome job! Karter seemed to enjoy it all and fell asleep at 7:30pm last night. This will be our last home party. I feel like I'm running around non-stop and never got to sit down once and relax. 

Teenage Dream

We officially have a teen! Madison turned 13 yesterday and Karter turned 4. Madison had her birthday party last Friday Sept 17th. She wanted to eat at her favorite restaurant Sumo, go to the Edmond North/Memorial Football game and have a slumber party. We had to take two vehicles to fit in all the girls. Karter loved singing with them in the car and knew every word! At the restaurant the girls were a little loud, but what do you expect with screaming, dramatic, teenage girls, ha! At the football game, I don't think the girls watched one play. They were too busy running around boy hunting. We came back home and had Madison's cookie cake and opened presents. The girls stayed up until 3am. The next morning Karter kept sneaking upstairs to see if the girls were awake. I still can't believe Madison is 13. She's almost the same height as me and wears my clothes & jewelry. They seem to always be missing and we wear the exact same shoes size. I have a feeling the teenage years will be very challenging for the two of us. She is very sassy and spoiled rotten!! Her cell phone never leaves her hand and she text non-stop. 

This Sunday is Karter's Bugs & Butterflies Party. The weather looks great. Can't wait to celebrate.

Labor Day Weekend Lake Trip

For Labor Day this year our family all got together to celebrate Gigi's birthday. We had a great time. I found a lake house on-line to rent for the 4 days. The cabin was awesome. We fished, swam, rode around in the boat and cooked some great food. We enjoyed spending time with Duncan's brothers family, Gigi, Uncle Pat, Brent & Lindsay. Here are a few pics from that weekend.

Hello Again!

I know it's been awhile. I have been such a busy bee lately. I finally got a new desktop computer a MAC and I love it!!! I think my blogging will improve and be much easier. My next big purchase is a heavy duty camera. I'll be posting pics of the past few months and recent events. September is a busy time with our 5 year Anniversary and the girls birthdays. I have lots of pictures to upload and will try to do over the next few weeks. Gotta run, OU Game Day and shopping to be done :)
