okay so for some reason my post pictures are coming up as words instead of pictures so I cant tell you what they are-
first off I started my pictures with the final product so if you start at the bottom pictures you will see the bundle of cotton candy I had made for goodie bags-
Phil (grandpa) got donuts and chocolate milk to start of Zoes big day- from then on they are pretty self explanitory except for the last ones, Zachs sister and Zoe...well and Zach were having races on the slip and slides- too fun!
All and all the day went off without aany fault, oh yes you will also see my mother in laws hard work at cutting out the pinapple (at my request) on shapes of fish aka flounder and the watermelon as starfish!!
Anyway, Zoe turned the big 3 and she is in the 25th percentile (finally)!!
Well off to start another week, hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more calming than today!

When it rains.....it pores:)

So here I am visiting the great town of wenatchee- great friends good family and two children! A two year old and a 6 week old. Never have I traveled this far ( 2 1/2 hours) by myself with them and the trip there- fantastic!! Well on the way home I was stopped by a road crew blowing up rocks- 20 minute delay- okay, so we wait the twenty minutes. We pass the flagger and of course it has been 2 hours since I fed the newborn so its time to eat she screams- we make it to the rest stop and POW its closed, so we pull over! Then in the middle of feeding my two year old yells POTTY MOMMY, POTTY MOMMY- great- I say. So I give her the option to go outside- NO WAY so I say " lets put on your sisters diaper and just this one time you can go in a diaper" NO WAY aaaaaaaaaaaa- what do I do...well, there is a fruit stand up the road! So we hop in the car, get to the fruit stand and I plead my case- YES they say, you can use the toilet!!!
okay, I think we are good to go...but of course we get behind three truckers!!!
So long story short our 2 1/2 hour trip ends up taking us almost four and we make it home to a loving husband and father and a batch of peanut butter cookies from the neighbor!
I guess there is always a rainbow at the end of a rainstorm- HUH?
