Vegas

It has become apart of Jake's job to go out to Vegas about once a month to help call on shops.

So it was nice to be home and able to travel with him.

Jake worked and the girls played at the pool!

We stayed at Hard Rock and loved it!!

The pool is like a beach with sand, but no waves.

We had fun ordering poolside service.

My drink was a Shirley Temple, sooo good on a 110 day.

Dancing around

Madeline's drink was usually water, extra ice.

We could get use to this.

Pretty pink toes

Jake took us to Serendipity's at Cesar's Palace.

Frozen hot chocolate....too rich for me.

More pool time

We had a GREAT time, M can't stop talking about Vegas. 

Thanks Jake for taking your favorite girls with you and working so hard for us!

Madeline's Two

Well this is a belated post, but it is a GREAT BIG SPECIAL post to our family!

Madeline turned two on August first!

The girl loves fishies, so it was done.......

Under the Sea theme it was!

I had fun finding things that were either blue or orange, but even more fun watching my girl be the happy little girly girl that she is.

This was on our door step when we woke up in the morning.

If you can't tell, it is practically life-size.

This is what the note read.

Steve sure does have familiar hand writing...

Just remember Josselyns, pay back is fun!

She loves Steve!

Good morning birthday girl!

I put her in her dress from last year's party, and it still fit.

Don't ask about the pose,

she just does them naturally.

The year before, only 1 year old.

How did the time go by so quickly?

Under the Sea

It is difficult to see, but the mermaids hung from the chandelier with glass balls .

Personalized water bottles that looked like her invitation.

Yummy pretzel rods with orange and blur chocolate (thanks TT)

I made the cupcake toppers with Madeline's picture.

My mom and Lauren did the adorable mermaids and helped print everything out.

Mmmmm......She loves birthday cakes

Look at that pinky

Grandma helped her on her new tricycle. 

It is a reproduction of an old plane.

It is pink and perfect.

My mom and dad gave me my first tricycle when I was two 

and they carried on that tradition for Madeline.

The princess

She received a large box full of dress up clothes.

It is perfect!

"It is raining" she says.

Emma helping with her cowgirl hat!

Charli and M playing doctor.

Sorry Charli I can't show my belly like Madeline.

Such a Happy girl!

We wanted thank everyone who helped make it a wonderful day!!!!!

I had lots of help from family and friends that have become family, 

Special thanks to: Kings, Clarkes, Miranda, Lauren, Erin, Kelly and Tawny.

 It would not have been the same without you!
