Maxfield Family Christmas Party

At grandma and grandpa Maxfield's, all the kids got to open up their Christmas Pj's and put them on! It was adorable! So much fun!

Brandon's 27th Birthday

Brandon's birthday was on Thursday and I was so paniced the entire day! I was running around trying to get everything ready for the gathering we were having. We had a great turn out. Lots of great friends and family! We ate pulled chicken sandwiches, cowboy caviar with chips, potato salad, noodle salad, and chicken salad! So dang good! After eating and cake and ice cream we played the Animal game which is the most hilarious game ever! Brandon's family was great to watch! All of them got looks of absolute horror on their face when it was their turn! So dang fun! It really turned out great!

I think everything turned out pretty great! Happy birthday to my 27 year old hubby!!

Party Pics

The party was a success! We had a great time. Lots of yummy food, good conversation, and played some fun games! I don't know why I was so worried. My family is great! Here is a few pics... We had a good time and I am pretty sure our dad was watching us and smiling!

Here are some pics of my Easter decor I put up {yes its early but I love Easter} and some other little improvements we did this weekend....

My bare basement walls before

This is after. Not much, just candle sconces but it helped.

My kitchen door without a border around it

Now with a border! Looks so much nicer! Really enhanced the door! My poor honey had so many little honey dos this weekend! He did a great job!

Getting Ready For The Party

I spent some of last night and most of this morning getting my house ready for the party tonight. I broke a glass last night so spent like an hour on my kitchen floor trying to make sure I got every tiny piece of glass up and made sure it was all mopped and looked good. Today, I gave Sawyer a Poptart and he ended up throwing it on the floor and stepping on it and mushing it into the tile. Sigh. I am starting to notice that nothing stays clean for very long when you have a little one!
I have done a bunch of little things to the house these past two days. My bay window looks very festive. Yes, I already put up my Easter stuff! I love Easter almost as much as Halloween and Christmas! Besides its bring and cheery and I am ready for spring! Also, Brandon hung up some sconces in my basement since my poor basement is completely bare. I am trying to fix that slowly! Finally, Brandon is working on getting a border up around our new deck door. We got the door back in September but haven't gotten around to putting up the border until today. I am very excited! I will post pics tomorrow when I get some time.
I am still pretty nervous to have all my family here tonight but am also very excited. I have a feeling my dad will be watching us and smiling!

Sawyer's 1st Birthday Party {9-9-09}

It was such a great party! Everything turned out wonderful! He was spoiled rotten of course! He got so many wonderful toys, books, and clothes! So many family and friends came and it meant so much to us! It was a great day!

Lee September Party

I love family parties! What a blessing it is to have such a wonderful family!

Past Week Catch-Up

This week was kind of draining. Its been one of those weeks where just about anything made me cry. Women, you know what I'm taking about. I see a commercial and I cry, watch a movie and I cry, I sit back and watch how big my baby boy is getting and break down SOBBING! lol

There were some high points tho. Thursday Brandon and I were able to go out on a date. Woohoo! We went out for Chinese food, hit the DI, then went to the batting cages.

After the cages, we went and picked up our little rugrat put him to bed then we watched Taken. UGH horrible show! Made me sick to my stomach. I wouldn't recommend it. Gave me the creeps. It was nice to have some alone time with my hubby tho.

Today, we went to Aiden's 1st birthday party! It was so much fun! Got to watch him get all caked up and open all his awesome gifts! He made a good haul for a one year old!! Makes me so excited for Sawyer's party!! Its coming so quickly!

Such a cutie pattootie! Him and Sawyer are going to have some fun as they get older I think!
