April 2011- Gabe's Birthday Party

As I have mentioned before I am not a big birthday person, however I feel really bad letting that effect Gabe, so I knew I needed to get pumped about a party. I wanted to do a zoo/jungle theme. I went to Party City, and like I always do, I impulsed bought anything and everything that had a zoo animal on it. haha. It was quite the experience. I did end up returning some stuff, because after a few days I got a little overwhelmed and thought it might look like zoo print vomitted everywhere....so I exchanged for some solid colors. I was most excited about the cake. I ordered from DreamCakes bakery here in Birmingham and it did not dissapoint. I met with the baker to talk to her about what I wanted. She did an amazing job and most important of all it melted in your mouth. We had a great turn out at a cute little park in Helena. My mom helped a ton and made food and my friend Cindy was a HUGE help in decorating and helping me get things in order the night before and day of. Here are several pics!



Isn't the cake A-M-A-Z-I-N-G?








Taylor's Bday party was later that afternoon :)


Double bagging it

December 2010 Recap

December was super busy as I am sure it was for everyone.  This will be a long post of pics- So I'm going to take it a little at a time.

Doesn't he look cute?

In his Christmas PJ's sporting his curls- We have a love/hate relationship with them


I helped host a baby shower for my friend Erin- Check out the pics below.

Petit Fours- Probably one of my favorite things in the world

I made the chicken salad!  I have a really good recipe if anyone wants.  I always get compliments on it :)

Erin and Baby Anderson


My friend Cindy held a "Tacky" Christmas Party at her house in Atlanta.  Good food and drinks were enjoyed.


I took G to the McWayne Center in December.  He had a blast.  They have an indoor playground for the little ones, which I think he could have played on all day.  They also had a section with "fake snow" that the kids could play in.

Water Station

Trains





We stopped for a treat after our day of fun- from DreamCakes!

Have to be shirtless for this one

Here is a pic from the Dutton's one night.  Look how sweet G and P look cuddling.  Notice the book is upside down. ha

 Here is a pic from Gabe at his Christmas Party at school.  He's a ham :)
