queen of hearts birthday

Our coco turned 2 on the 8th of february..and I decided to throw a valentines themed party,,,because her birthday has been so close to valentines and her official due date was valentines..I always think of her as my little valentine...

this cute invite I found on mommiesink via etsy...it was a valentine postcard I just had changed for a birthday theme.
 the wreath is made from yarn... a floaties cut and duck taped..some  red crinoline, red wire sprigs and sparkly hearts from the dollar store..i tucked her invite in for the party..and then took it off after her party..so it worked for valentines too.

 our chalkborad wall greeted everyone as they came in.. I wrote love a bajillion times..I think it looks like wallpaper after I LOVE IT...:)

 I had everyone type or write coco a note for her to open on her 18th birthday before they came in..on paper doilies

                                    cute straws bought on etsy from isakay boutique- I just used red paper cups to cut down on costs..and I couldnt find milk bottle..but I  actually ended up liking the pop of color

                 my amazing cake and cupcakes were made by miss katie from cakery bakery cherry chocolate  strawberry filling with dark chocolate and vanilla and chocolate buttercream swirled like a rose.. sooooo cute and sooo yummy!

 raspberry sorbet punch to drink.. I put it in an apothecary jar instead of a 

punch bowl for a little extra flair

  chocolate croissants wrapped in heart doilies

 and the cute little missy herself in a mod dress with peterpan collar dress from faithworks4u

owl birthday party

My boys birthday party was so much fun. I decided to do an owl theme this year cause it was so little boyish. My mom made a banner bags and cupcake toppers cause I was low on energy from my c section recovery. She's going to start selling party packages on her etsy sight if you want to check it out. Thanks mom!

Brandon and I got the boys a play structure and a play kitchen- We had a little too much fun at toys r us- it has literally saved my life- I love spring time and letting them run around outside. they love it too. They got construction trucks shopping carts books and blocks from grandparents star wars shirts from aunt Keshia play dough from cousins and Dafoes and these awesome

disney books from Neilsons.

It was fun watching as we sang to them how their eyes lit up. They got that it was for them and that made my heart smile.

Technically there birthday isnt until the 1st- so my sentimental post will be then- but I was too excited about these little owls!

My dear friend sarah made this wall hanging for her room that everyone signed. Brooke made a video interviewing brandon about me and chloe- it was adorable I'll post it if I figure out how.

All I have to say is I have amazing friends and family. Thanks everyone who made my day special. Who helped clean cook set up.I know what it takes to pull something off like this and I felt so much love! Especially miss hostess Keshia your kinda legendairy.

I heart your enthusiasm.

The amazing race v day style!

Well this year I was a little worried how we were going to celebrate v day with having a brand spankin new 3 day old baby girl.

also why I look like a balloon :)

Luckily I have some amazing friends and we all love to throw parties and when we all pitch in it's amazingly easy and fun crud happens! So we came up with clues and tasks for our handsome men to go accomplish while we cooked them an amazing dinner-

1-Go to the the palm tree park and create a love message for us out of snow, rocks or leaves.

2-At Chad's work they were supposed to make a music video to "I'm too sexy..." but the stereo wouldn't play the cd, so they got off with showing us their pouty disappointed faces Brandon's pouty lips made me laugh so hard.

At Danny's work they had to spell out LOVE with their bodies.IT WAS So funny to watch them manuever.

At Jordan's Dad's office they had to use props to make a video (they bopped their heads with dark sunglasses on for about 3 minutes! To I wear my sunglasses at night- you can tell when the guys loose it that it was going to be such a fun night.

Then they finished off making us rose bud flowers out of kisses out at heritage point.

The other task they had to complete at some point in the date was to use a bag of pennies we gave them to get us a gift- sooo they went to superstore and bought us candy-Picture this 4 guys in matching shirts at the self checkout putting pennies in the machine one by one and someone filming them-We just died laughing when we watched the video.

ON the way back the boys called us and faked a ticket we took their wallets so they wouldn't cheat and try and buy something not using the pennies- so we all kind've freaked- we thought they might be pulling our leg but it took a while and we all started feeling like it was super real- plus they only texted didn't call. Finally they called and said nick talked his way out of the ticket and it helped that brandon's shirt said I heart bj- OH SO FUNNY- but then they ended up walking through the door with bouquets and we figured out they tricked us sneaky guys! It was so much fun!!!!

The studly men in their I heart my wife shirts designed by lovely miss Marissa- I love mine- Brandon and I have the same initials so I feel extra chesy- LOVE IT! plus the bj is just hilarious if Brandon wears it.

We made them little gifts while they were out - they have printable magnet paper at staples- We just made up words and cut them out with the message - I'm so attracted to you hope these help you score!- complete with choco score bar- already these magnets have been a blast in my kitchen this week.

The girlies in hot pink!-love how I'm not looking- I must've been staring at desert...

I laughed so hard at dinner that When I got home I had to take 2 tylenol 3 because my inciscion hurt so bad- I had to hold my stomach every time there was something funny we talked about. I love my friends so much!

Chloe' accompanied her parents on the date- she's such a good little sleeper and cuddler. Aunt Keshia and Melanie held her lots- check out the strawberries- for dinner we had steaks with mushrooms asparagus scallops salad and sparkling cider.

I went home thinking how lucky I am to have Brandon in my life- he makes me laugh is super fun to be with and I love his sense of humor and that he's will to do anything. WHat a trooper- the guys vowed to get us back I'm scared for fathers day.

Happy V day johnson!
