EK's Egg Hunt 2nd Birthday -part 2

We had an egg hunt for Emery Kate's second birthday party! Her actual birthday is this Wednesday the 27th! Since Easter was later than usual I took advantage! Having all the Easter decorations and ideas made this party so fun and so easy! It was a blast for me to plan and I think Emery Kate had a really good time!

Putting Eggs in her basket. Once she realized there was candy in them she just wanted to open them and get the candy out!
Sweet Riley getting some eggs of her own.

Me & EK

Duncan got into the egg stickers :)

the kids on the hunt!

Emery Kate is VERY into Duncan right now. During the party she wanted him by her side the whole time. It's pretty sweet. I hope they are always close like this.

The cupcakes!

EK blowing out the candle.

Molly had a blast at the party.

Is Ainsleigh not so cute!

Molly had a friend at the party...little Katie is only 3 weeks younger than her!

Felice is too cool for school in her shades.

Sparrow decorating some hard boiled eggs! She did a great job!

Molly was getting a little hot. Those cheeks were pink. I think she has some Conlee in her. Mary B! Proof that Alex came!

After everyone left we piled in the NEW BOAT my parents got for the lakehouse. Blake and Jason picked it up on Thursday so it's in our garage. It is so nice...we are SO excited to use it. Thank you SOOOO much mom & dad!

You can't see EK, Dunc and Jayden b/c they are playing inside the boat! EK has been talking about the boat all day!I love this picture of Jayden.the back of EK's adorable dress.

What a fun day with friends and family!

EK's Egg Hunt 2nd Birthday -part 1 (mostly the decorations)

We had chalk outside the fence so when the men put all the eggs out the kids were able to play with sidewalk chalk.

the party favors
I found this tutorial on Martha stewart that showed how to make these out of envelopes. It was cute!

We had stickers for the little kids to decorate with and a table for the older kids to decorate hard boiled eggs!

I was proud of myself for putting the eggs in the vase with the tulips. I thought it was so pretty!

My dear friend Stephanie made their adorable outfits for the party. They looked SO cute. It was perfect. Thank you SOOOO much sweet friend! Wish you didn't live in Alabama so you could have been here. Did not get the best pic of them together.

Aunt B...

we MISS you!

HE is RISEN!!!!

it's fun seeing her in EK's old outfits.

Molly is 3 months old!

Sweet Molls is 3 months today! I'm loving every minute with her! Smiles with bath time

there is a lot of this during the day...

and this... and there's lots of this too.

I am truly blown away by the love EK has for Molly. She is never jealous, includes her in everything, and gives her more hugs and kisses than molly knows what to do with. It melts me. I hope Christy was that excited when I entered the world :) I really couldn't be more grateful that the Lord chose me & blake to raise these two girls. i.am.blessed.

I definitely think this time I am not rushing her to do the next thing like I was with EK. I am just enjoying her being in the stage she's in. They grow so fast.

This last pic is for MB b/c we talked to her this morning and EK did her "excited face" for her.

Sparrow's tea party!

We had a lot of fun on Saturday at Sparrow's 3rd birthday party. It was a tea party and it turned out so cute! I took lots of pics! I love the picture above of Molly b/c it looks like she has bunny ears. And I think the picture below is the sweetest.

playing ring-around-the rosie...duncan and EK did not know what they were doing :)

Magen and Wilson in his cute bowtie! I loved all the little boys dressed up!

Fitting for Duncan to be putting on a hat...he was wearing a smocked bubble :) ! Of course I loved it b/c of the southern in me. He looked so cute with his little legs!

trying to get a kids pic...ha! Notice Molly in the carseat nearby...she was thoroughly enjoying the party!

is this not the most precious picture....LOVE! This is for you MB since I know you miss these two!
