3 Birthdays and Easter

This is going to be a rather long post, but with lots of fun pictures (sorry for randomness of order in some places)!  Enjoy!

Thursday:  My mama and great aunt, JJ, went to us to the Living Gallery at BJU.  If you have never been you need to b/c it's so good.  Aunt Katie was nice to babysit AR for us while we were gone.  That same evening I decorated all 3 birthday cakes for this weekend.

Working on one of the girl's cakes.  Just not the same without Heather... and it didn't help that our antenna wasn't working right so I didn't get to watch American Idol while decorating either.
Friday:  We headed to Mimi and Papa's house for a very eventful weekend.  We celebrated Grayson's 3rd birthday Friday evening.  Mollie had a cute sock monkey theme to go along.

William was nice enough to do the writing for me.




It had been 3 months since seeing the Hayes last, so things were much different.  Both girls are standing some on their own and we're just waiting on them to walk.

Saturday:  We celebrated the girls' 1st birthdays!  (a little early since everybody was together)






I didn't get a good picture of the whole dining room, but here is one of the high chairs all ready for the girls' party.


AR loved her cake!  She didn't dive in but we eventually had to take it away from her b/c I'm pretty sure she'd have eaten the whole thing!  Can't wait to see what she does when we celebrate with my family!
Caroline on the other hand was not a fan.

Grayson and AR did not like having all 3 cousins in the wagon at once.

We visited the farm animals






Sunday:  We celebrated Easter with the whole family.




Mimi made these matching outfits for each of the grandchildren.  Aren't they beautiful, the outfits and the children!  We will cherish this dress very much.

You may remember a picture from last year showing the four of us pregnant together.  We were all due within about 3-4 weeks of each other and still came in about that time frame, though the orders switched!

The whole family!  I have to say that this turned out quite good!  So thankful the Lord has placed these people in my life.
Special thanks to Mimi and Papa for such a great weekend!
