Goals

Goals are very important to me, and this summer I set lots of them:

 

1. Transform Emma's Room from Neutral to Girly

       

         

2. Dresser Re-Do

4. Potty Training my little monsters.

5. Running my first 5K.

I'm happy to say, I have accomplished all of them!!

(ok... #4 I have one girly down and one almost there...!)

 

But overall, I'd say it was a productive summer!

 

 

Here's to new goals for the new school year!

Whose Birthday Is it?

"MINNIE MOUSE!"

(That was the typical response from Miss Emma every time we asked her it.)

-No, it's Emma's birthday! How old are you?

"Three!" 

-Nice try, but you are two! :)

We were blessed to have a beautiful Sunday afternoon to celebrate this cute girl's second birthday. We were surrounded by lots of family to share in on this special day.

Emma was full of energy. She was running around and smiling and screaming (in a good way!) laughing and being silly.

The party was a Minnie Mouse Party. If you have ever watched the new "The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse," you would know the closing song goes, "Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggity dog!" So lunch  of course was a Hot Dog bar with lots of different toppings including chili, bacon & blue cheese, corn salsa, among others.

The plates & napkins even tried to fit into our theme.

Then came the presents. Ems really wasn't all that interested in the gift opening, but I did catch one smile during the process. And of course, even though she didn't find opening the gifts all that exciting, she sure is getting a lot of use of all her new things since Sunday.

And Emma's favorite part of the day... the cake!

 Happy 2nd Birthday Emma!
