“Warning, monsters inside! Enter at your own risk!”


On October 3, 2011

Our adorable lil' Crew Monster turned 3.

It was a silly-
Monster Mash Birthday Bash.

We partied with best of them.


 Mom, Dad, Cody, Landen, 
Grandpa & Grandma Southwick, 
Trevor, Shari & their lil' monsters too.


For Monster mealtime we chowed
down on monsterburgers & dogs. 
Slurped up Monster brew.
and ate a little bit of Monster cake!


It was a monstrously good time!

Crew also received Birthday cards in the mail
from G&G Simcox and G&G Taysom.

 Each card was filled with lots of money. 
This lil' Monster is rich and ready to shop!

Let the wild rumpus begin!

Annsley Jade

Celebrates

the big

ONE!!!!

My little niece Annsley

turned one a few weeks ago.

I was so excited for her 

big day!

See....

I am raising three wild

and crazy boys who prefer

mud or dirt included in all

their activities.

{I honestly don't understand

why the need to do this???}

You can see why 

I am thrilled to have this

darling little girly-girl

 to sweeten my life.

And...

THE PINK!

I love all the pink!

I was dying to throw her

a first birthday party.

Just needed to get my hands

on some girly stuff.

I went shopping for party

supplies and had to restrain

myself from not buying every

freakin' cute, pink, girl thing

I wanted and desperately needed!

It was a bittersweet shopping

trip to Hobby Lobby. 

But I remained strong.

I left the store empty handed.

{gasp!}

I returned home and decided

to use what I had on hand.

Kept things very simple.

Did nothing like I wanted to do.

But I did make her a cake.

and naturally when making

her a birthday cake I

made it all PINK!

Happy Birthday Sweetheart!!!
