The Big 2!

On November 17th, Analy celebrated her 2nd birthday. She loved it from the moment she got out of bed. She kept saying “Happy Birthday to me” and even breaking out into the full birthday song complete with dance.

We started off the day by opening presents. Analy is all about anything “princess” these days so most everything was covered in them in some way or another. She screamed, oooohed, and aaaahed the entire time.

Here she is opening her Disney Belle doll.

For some reason, it’s becoming a tradition to take the kids to McDonald’s for there birthday. Of course when we asked Analy where she wanted to go she said McDonald’s to play on the castle (yuck). But she is the birthday girl!

Here she is enjoying her chicken nuggets!

After supper we headed home for cake. Of course, it had to be a princess cake.

Trick-or-Treat Country Style

This weekend we were invited to come along for a Trick-or-Treat hayride. There were about 30 kids plus their parents who loaded on to a cow trailer full of hay bales. Throughout the 2 hour ride we made stops around the community.

Here’s my cute little bee in his sling. Thankfully he slept the entire time!
