Jake's Birthday!

It was Jake's Birthday on Sunday! I am so glad there is a day to celebrate Jake! He is such an awesome husband, and a great friend to me! And such a fun, cute Dad to the girls! We had a great time celebrating! This was my first attempt at being a cake decorator! Let's just say I won't be starting a business anytime soon! Hopefully practice will eventually make perfect! It is just funny how you have something envisioned in your head and then the finished product looked quite a bit different! Oh Well, I think it turned out good enough that you should be able to tell it is a Ute Jersey! Thanks to the Utes for winning the big game on Saturday, any of you that know Jake will realize that them winning was Present Enough!!!

The Birthday Boy!!

Make a Wish!

Jake with Sam, Me with Sadie


They love waking Daddy up in the morning! Sam standing.


The girls are showing off their newest trick! They have discovered that they can climb up on our tall kitchen table chairs! Although it is entertaining to see them be so proud of their new accomplishment, it sure makes things more interesting!! Goodbye Tablerunner with Centerpiece! Sadie left, Samantha right.

I just have to give credit to my cute husband, for my "Just Because" flowers! It meant so much to me! I think Jake was actually missing Paris! (Like he does atleast once a day!) And remembered how we loved to buy fresh flowers from the cute little shops right by our flat! Fun Memories!

I have received requests to post more video of the girls! I'm glad you enjoy them as much as we do! I have to apologize in advance for my horrible rendition of Ring around the Rosy!

I think you did a great job at the cake! I haven't made an actual birthday cake since I was a wee one. I am always amazed at how big the girls look when you post new pictures! I LOVED the video!! Hailey has those same PJ's! WAY excited to see you in LESS than a month! Yay!

Happy birthday, Jake! I love that he is older than me! Ha! Tall table is the way to go. At least it bought you a few more months of a cute table setting. We are going on a couple months of having our kitchen always looking like it is being cleaned because Eme continues to climb onto the table every chance she gets. We have to stack the chairs in the corner! And don't even get me started on our poor Christmas tree! I used to have a cute house!
