party time

our weekend was a little busy.

on friday my mom, madeline, eden

brette and reid met me at the bank and we

had a little "girls night out" dinner.

it was fun and brette always loves having her besties around.

ronnie took advantage of a free night and met up with "the guys."

they all went to the royals game,

but being the idiot he is, he drank way too much beer

and was a hot mess when he got home.

idiot.

 

saturday i put ronnie to work finishing up some

things around the house:

wash deck furniture,

hang a newly painted mirror,

mow the yard and

 bring up some tables and chairs for the basement.

(i hosted a baby shower on sunday and these things needed done)

meanwhile, the girls and i went to paige's first birthday.

shannon is so crafty and does such a good job

with all her decorations and details.

it was a true pinterest party - completely adorable.

and hello, i got to spend all afternoon with my friends.

loved it.

 

 

 

when i got home the girls slept for a little bit

and then we met up with my parents and brother for

a little dinner at costa vida on the patio.

it was so nice outside the girls ran and ran and ran.

just look at reid, sipping on ronnie's drink.

such a big girl.

 

 

sunday was kassie's baby shower at my house.

i packed up ronnie and the girls first thing that morning

and sent them to my parent's house for the day.

i needed every minute to get ready.

i went grocery shopping, i cleaned, decorated and got food prepped.

luckily, dana and shannon were co-hosting with me

so they showed up early to help out while i managed

to get myself in the shower and dressed.

we did a fiesta theme since it:

1- paid homage to kassie's wedding in mexico

2- gives kassie an excuse to eat mexican food- her favorite.

3 - let us try something a little different than we've done for other showers.

(we're becoming professional shower hostesses with all these new babies.)

 

weren't the invites adorable?

 

it was super cute little party and i think kassie had a good time.

 

 (nacho bar)

 

(cactus cookies, mini cupcakes and "ready to pop...corn" favors)

 

 

 

and how funny are dana and i?

we traded places.

last april vs. this april

what a difference a year makes.

 

and that was our weekend.

busy, but so. much. fun.

and i really do love hosting stuff at my house.

it drives ronnie crazy because i make him

do so much stuff, but

it's one of my favorite things.

i'm already excited for the girls' birthdays this summer.

i better start planning!
