Happy 34th My Dear Husband

Yep he finally caught up to me, we are both 34 now! Geez don't tell me it goes down hill from here. I feel like I am at my peak and it can only get better, and I only pray the same for Brian. Brian is my best friend, has been ever since we met back home in San Diego. If you have not heard the story how we met, it's pretty cool, too long to go into now.

Brian is genuine, loving, honoring, fun, funny, adventurous, hard working, a great husband and a great father. I am thankful and proud to have him as my husband and I pray that God will bless you with another great 34 years! Happy Birthday Brian and thank you for being such a great provider, leader, father and husband to your family and those around you. We love you!

Brian and Aria...taking her on her first ride on Monday this week. Just down the street to the grocery store.

Ahhh at home after work on Tuesday, chilling out with the kiddos!

My 1st Prince is 2!

The little guy made it to 2 on July 26th...Kaden that is:-) What a trooper he is and what fun he has been this last year as he transitioned from just walking to running and playing with his big sister. His favorite things are playing with cars and making the vroom vroom sounds. He also loves to read books. If I had the time I am sure he would sit in my lap for hours just listening to me read. He is fun, spontaneous, loving (except when Aria and him disagree on sharing a toy), and full of giggles and smiles. This last year has been a great one! Thank you Kaden for all the hugs, and love you have given all of us this last year and we are so looking forward to another year to come!

We LOVE you Kaden and Happy 2nd Birthday!

This is the pull apart car cake I made. I was trying to get the frosting a red color but I guess I didn't add enough drops. Owell. Still came out great. It was a chocolate cake with a cream cheese frosting...homemade of course!

After cake and presents we headed out to the porch to visit with family. Aunt Shari, Auncle Rocco, Aunt Blanche, and Grandma and Grandpa. Thanks everyone for coming out and celebrating with us!

This is Brian's Aunt Blanche whom came down all the way from Watertown, CT with Uncle Rocco!

Aria and Kaden took the bubble wrap that we had and placed it on the ground of the porch and were running back and forth for about an hour enjoying the sounds of the POP from the bubbles popping. It was a lot of fun to watch them both enjoy such a cheap form of entertainment!
