The Big 3

Peter turned 3!!!

He has grown so much over the years and I cannot believe how fast they have flown by.

Here are some pictures of his special day!

But first, here are some pictures of when he was still two...

We went to Josh's baseball game and I followed Peter around the playground

"Sister! Please help me get down!"

"You have to smile for the camera first!"

"ok"

He never gets tired or worn out from running.

Me?

Naw, I don't either!.... right?

The big day.

I think he understood it was a special day.

Besides the fact that we kept on spoiling him and yelling, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!"

Here comes the cake!

Make a wish!

Open the present!

And, of course, eat the cake!

Happy Birthday Peter! We love you!

365 Challenge: Days 80-86

I'm back!!!

After a long, hard, but fun week - I finally present to you pictures! I was up north for most of it, speaking and competing in a Speech Tournament! It was a lot of fun, however, I was so busy I hardly had time to take pictures. I did manage to take a picture a day though!

Spring is *finally* here! We had a ton of rain over the past days, but now the clouds are gone and the sun is shining once again.

On our way up North to the Speech Tournament, I saw snow fall for the first time in my life!  I was SO beautiful - but extremely hard to capture in a moving vehicle. Here is a picture I was able to get that shows how much snow was falling down...

At the Speech Tournament!

Anika learning how to knit

The awards given to the top speakers. Although I didn't place in the semi finals, it was a great learning experience and a wonderful week.

Our wonderful Host and Hostess. Thank you so much for everything you did for us!

More catch-up pictures coming soon!

Happy Monday!

Spring had Sprung!

Weeell, not quite.

Over at Allie's is the next Happy Monday Photo Challenge! The theme is "Spring".

Although I would like to believe that Spring is finally here, it's still looming in the horizon. Here is a picture I took last year that would fit the Spring description!

365 Challenge: Days 73-79

After a week of celebrating a holiday, a birthday, and other celebrations, I present to you days 73 through 79!

Although many of the pictures have nothing to do with holidays, birthdays, and celebrations, just know that they were happening in the background. :)

Enjoy!

Some veggie we ate for dinner.  When you placed some water in it, it looked like pieces of cut glass.

At the St. Patrick's Day Roller Skating festival!

Studied chemistry with some friends that day.

Cake from Peter's birthday!

Rain rain go away....

But you all come back again another day!

St. Patty's Day!

Leprechauns. Rainbows. Four-leaf clovers. Pots o' gold.

St. Patrick's Day!

Miss Joy and I decided to capture this holiday with a GREEN photo shoot! The location we were at was a perfect shade of St. Patrick-y emerald, which matched our apple-green outfits perfectly.

Enjoy - and have a Happy St. Patty's Day!

    

This one makes me happy... :)

I love this one!!!

This picture reminds me of all the Jane Austen movies...

    

It's not green... but I like it!

Here are some pictures Miss Joy took of me!
