Happy Birthday Cory (Two Weeks and Four Days Late)

So, I've been a bit busy.  Such is life for a stay-at-home mommy of two little ones, trying to run a photography business on the side, and currently has a guest from out of the country staying at her house.  But, I love it.  I am totally blessed and thankful for my crazy little life!  I have quite a few blogs to write, and I'll catch up.....eventually.  As you can see, I am two weeks and four days behind right now.

Cory's birthday was, September 16.  We were so excited to learn that Cory's parents would be joining us for the special day :)  Of course the grandbabies stole all the attention, Ha Ha, but it did allow time for us to go hang out with friends, alone.  Thanks Nana and Poppy!

So, here is how we celebrated.....

We made breakfast and homemade cards to make him feel all special.  The kiddos worked together to give daddy some art for his office.  Landry painted the frame, while Eli's finger paint masterpiece spells out, We Love Daddy.

Then he got his present from me.....Fruity Mentos and Juicy Fruit (a couple of his faves), photos of the kids for his office, and a date nights to last all year.  You see, the duties of the home sometimes get all my focus and I need to be more intentional about dating my husband.  Even though we are not able to go out every week, there are plenty of stay-in ideas.  I planned four date nights a month for us to enjoy.  They start next week and I am SO excited!  

Of course Landry had to make him his favorite cake, red velvet. (Thanks Libby and Amy for picking up the cake :)

 And she had to blow out the candles

That night we enjoyed time eating pizza with friends.

Happy 31st Birthday, Babe!!  We Love You!!
