Birthdays

Just a quick posting (since i don't have any pictures) about the girl's birthday parites. Rachel's birthday is next Wednesday but since daycare is closed next week we had her 1st birthday party at school on Thursday. The theme was "Bubble Guppies" and I made the birthday invitations myself. I also made cupcakes with blue icing and goldfish (natalie helped me add yellow and red sprinkles - and took a couple of bites of icing to "test" it). she was a good little helper. Rachel got some nice presents and had a good birthday. When Zeena gets back, I'll try and get some picture and add to this post.

Yesterday (Friday) morning we had the girl's joint birthday party. Matt and I both took off work and had a small turnout. It was really nice and we had alot of our friends from church come over. We booked the party table at the Lewsiville Water park (our favorite!) and had another Bubble Guppies party but this time we got a custom cake (much better than my cupcakes). Since we didn't bring a camera to the pool, I took a picture of the cake when we got home. It may or may not have a few more guppies missing at this point.....what can i say - this is GOOD cake!!

When we get back from vacation, we'll have one more party (for natalie) at daycare and then we're done with our month of birthday parties (july 27-august 26 usually equals 4 minimum parties since everyone but me had birthdays during this time). I am officially going on a diet after natalie's birthday!!
