Big Birthday Weekend

Well, this was a big weekend for us. My nephew, Max's, 6th birthday was on Thursday. My MIL's birthday was on Friday. Our friend Bella's birthday party was on Saturday and Daddy's birthday was on Sunday!


Daddy was working midnights so for breakfast, he brought home some donuts for us all. After church, I baked a cake while the girls decorated the house. Natalie, with Jules' help, spread Easter grass all over the floor. She figured it would be great to step on because "it's cushy." She also hid Easter eggs. I iced the cake and the girls chose the phrase "#1 Dad" to put on it. They then decorated with more icing and sprinkles. I swear, it says "#1 Dad" somewhere in there.

We also made a sign and our own hand-made cards for him. For activities, Nat decided we should hunt Easter eggs (...guess who found them all first... the girl that hid them!) She also came up with a rule that "you can't watch movies (tv) on your birthday." This was her clever way to make sure Fox News and hunting shows were not on TV. =) Daddy came up with a game too -- seeing who could pick up the most Easter grass. He and Nat raced. We both decided I was the real winner in that game =)

We love daddy and are so happy to celebrate him. He's a lot of fun and loves all of his girls very much.
