Josie is 2!

We had a great time celebrating Josie's birthday this weekend! Grandma Moorlag came in on Wednesday night and was a big help getting everything ready for the party. We had two big gifts to put together on Thursday night (table & chairs from Grandma and Grandpa M. & kitchen from Mike & I), so Mike, Grandma and I worked on them until after Midnight! I never stay up that late!

When Josie woke up on her birthday, we surprised her with her kitchen and pots and pans. Then Mike went out and got her her favorite breakfast - donuts! No, we don't have donuts every week, just on special occasions. :) We took her out to dinner at Pizza Hut for dinner, after opening a few more presents. She got some dress up clothes from Josh, Liz and Lauryn, and wore the bracelet and necklace to dinner! After dinner, we headed to our neighborhood party so she could play with her friends.

New kitchen!

We had her Minnie Mouse party on Saturday. Josie had a great time playing with her friends in the pool, opening presents and eating her Minnie Mouse cake made by my cousin Rachel. She made a family favorite that I have had every birthday of my life - strawberry cake with strawberry icing. Delicious! Mike was a hit at the party with the yummy burgers he made - everyone was raving about them. Good job, honey! We had a great time celebrating our sweet Josephine Corinne! I am going to put a slideshow together of the pictures from her party...I just need to figure out how!! Stay tuned.... :)

  1. So glad to see she had a fun time with grandma! That is one special pink kitchen. You will surely raise a domestic goddess with that beautiful set up! :) Elyse is so beautiful, I can't believe how she is changing. Give the girls hugs and kisses from us! Miss you.
