Surprise

























Ha! So I thought I posted this one already. Opps. These are the pictures from Brad's fabulous surprise 30th birthday party! Which was almost a disaster because of an uncooperative birthday boy...

I made arrangements with Brad's brother Justin and Crystal (his girlfriend) to keep Brad occupied while I set up for the party (he thought I was working). Easier said than done! People weren't supposed to arrive until 12:30 and at 11:00 a.m. I start getting texts from Justin saying that they are having trouble keeping him there. Uh-oh! The rouse to get him there was to help move a couch, which takes 10 minutes tops. So the idea was that they could play video games...that. was. the. idea.

But Brad wanted to get chores done, "I need to change my oil," "I need to get Ty home so he can eat". So to make a long story short we recruited Mom and Dad and they were able to entice Brad with "swirl cake"! For those of you not familiar with "swirl cake" it is Brad's favorite and a family recipe that I can never get quite right.

So I had to call everyone on the guest list and encourage them to get a move on and arrive ASAP. It all worked out in the end, everyone showed up in time for the surprise (except Mom and Dad)! It was so much fun just to see the priceless look on his face...

Here we go again!

Here we go again! Ty is so amazing, being a mommy is so much fun and a lot of work, but fun work. I was worried that I didn't have enough pictures to start blogging again but when I checked I've taken over 400 pictures since my last posting. Ha! I don't remember taking that many photos. Here are a few pics to get the ball rolling.


Fun with Daddy!







Just hanging out...this was our routine during the days that I had to go to my internship. It was so cute, he'd hide under my clothes and just laugh as they swept across his face. This lasted for awhile, until he discovered that he could pull the clothes off the hanger. He thought that was fun too.

Look closely...










Lara and Tyler hanging out on Thanksgiving. She is so good with him, so sweet and gentle. I love how he's just checking her out...


I will post again soon. Small doses work the best for me. I have lots to catch you up on!
