Star Spangled Kids Link-Up

 
It's been quite a while since I've participated in a link up... I know, I know, it's been quite a while since I blogged in general. But you guys know me and how much I love a good holiday. Any excuse to dress my kiddos up in matching outfits and celebrate gets me going! So, today, I'm linking up with Liz, Vanessa, Sara, Erin, Kristy and Natalie for this fun July 4th Star Spangled Kids Link Up to show off my little firecrackers!
 
 
 
This was last year for July 4th, when Crew was only 2 months old, which obviously didn't stop me from coordinating our outfits.
 
 
 
July 4th, 2015. Someone didn't want to sit and smile. :-)
 
 
 
I even gave T a patriotic mani/pedi, which she loved. Is anyone else obsessed with Jamberry these days?
 
 
 
No July 4th weekend is complete without a trip to the water park for some fun in the sand and sun!
 
 
 
I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing long weekend with friends, family, and lot's of red, white, and blue!

Tinley's Carousel Birthday

Welllll hello there blog land! Long time, no see! I sure have missed this sweet little place, but I have sooooo been enjoying life. I hope you all have been as well!
 
This is something I've been meaning to share for months, and I finally found some spare time to get it posted. So, without further ado, here's how we celebrated sweet Tinley's 3rd Birthday back in January!
 
 
I found T's invites on Etsy, and they were even more beautiful in person! I was so impressed with the seller, I ended up getting matching cupcake toppers and cupcake wraps from her as well.
 

We rented out the banquet room at the Merry-Go-Round Museum, which is in our very own downtown. I don't know how we had never been there prior to this, considering T's absolute favorite ride is the carousel. It made the perfect theme, and the mint/blush/gold color scheme was gorgeous. There were all kinds of fun things for the kids to do, and the staff was great.
 
 It turned out to be a wonderful sunny day, which is rare in Ohio in the winter- much different from last year on her birthday, when a blizzard almost ruined our party! I was so glad it ended up being a nice day, and all of our friends and family were able to come and help celebrate.

 

 

 

 


 
 

Thank you to Wendy Kromer for the delicious cake pops that were too pretty to eat, and the fabulous carousel cookies!

 
Creative Cuisine's food was amazing, as always!
 

 
My beautiful 3 year old!






 
Sweet friends and their boys
 






Every one had some fun on the carousel, even daddy!
 

 
Thank you to everyone that helped us celebrate our baby girl's 3rd Birthday. It was the most perfect day, and T is STILL talking about it. (and asking to go back!)
