12 years and counting

Well, yesterday was mine and Ben's 12 years anniversary! We celebrated on Saturday. We had Texas Roadhouse for dinner and watched a movie. I can't believe it's been 12 years already, time has flown by. Yesterday we also had a birthday dinner for my neice Avery. Happy belated b-day Av we love ya.

Happy Birthday Ellie..and everything else that has gone on

O.K. so I am totally late posting this but on the Saturday before Ellie's 3rd birthday we had a party for her. She invited everyone in her nursery class(before we knew we were going to have a party for her). Ever since her cousins birthday party she had been wanting a bounce house birthday party.

So we called up McKayle and rented the big slide and a small bounce house. The slide got too hot so we turned the water on it. The kids loved it. Too bad I hadn't planned on everyone getting wet. It was a big mess in the house but they all had a good time so it was worth it right?

We also had a Japanese exchange student for a couple of weeks. My kids loved her so much. She was so good with them and brought cute little presents for them that they totally love. They keep asking when we are going to get another student now that she is gone.
