Remember this picture?

I had a friend ask me, were I took this picture. And so I thought I share with you all the story behind it!

It all stardet when one morning the kids were jumping on my bed. And then Preston spit up all over my dark brown sheets. Yuck!
Well, after throwing the dirty sheets in the washer, I had this beautiful clean "canvas" (my bed)
AND wonderful natural light!

Let the fun begin!
Lilly was more then happy to put on her pettycoat. Can ya tell she enjoyed every minute of it?

One more!


{just fyi: No editing was done, what-so-ever!}

This was my very first shot. I know it is totaly underexposed, but it still is love it! ;)




Look at that little bugger trying to get away... ;)


btw: to get them all looking at the camera, I stood above all three of them and bounced the mattress, while making some funny noises!!!

 And here is my favorite picture! Love these three ;)

Give a Day


We have been looking forward to this day for a while now. If you haven't heard about the "Give a day"volunteer opportunity, you have to go and check it out. DISNEY is giving out free tickets.

 

So this Saturday we drove over to the Sunshine Care facility and hosted, with a few others family, a Disney tea party.
We were in charge of the decoration.

The kids had so much fun getting crafty! Remember Lilly's Micky Mouse Birthday? My Disney punch sure came in handy for this event. Taylor punched out about 250 micky's and then Lilly and Taylor decorated the flags and the rest we used as confettis.


Here we have T. and L. greet everyone.




Lilly ecspecially bonded with this sweet lady. Her name was Rosemary and she couldn't wait to give hugs to everyone.


Then it was time to serve everyone sugger free muffens and tea.

I love the empression on Taylor's face!

He did such an amazing job taking care of everyone.


This was such a blessing for me to watch.

This has to be one of my favorites pictures.

Simply beautiful.
After tea time some of the kids read Disney books to everyone.



Lilly decided to just make up her own story! Love it! ;)


I truly enjoyed spending time with these precious ladies.

Dosn't this Lady just have the sweedest smile ever?

After a few Disney Trivia questions, it was already time to clean up.

We were all a bit sad to leave, but knew we would be back soon. We already made plans to come back in two weeks. ;)

Valentine's Day

Life is incredibly crazy right now, but that sure won't keep me from throwing a little Valentien's day party for my sweeties! ;)

This was Prestons 1st Valentiens day and he sure was happy. Can you believe that he will be a year old next month?





Oh, and it was also Lilly's doll "Hanna's" birthday.


So we light a candle and sang happy birthday. ;)

This year I tried to keep it simple. (haha! meaning not going crazy shopping for things and rather used the stuff I already have!) All I bought was dollies. I made this garlend and also used it to decoate with it.




Oh, I also making this heart shaped garlend to decorate and then decidet to hang it into Lilly's room.  CUTE HUH??






Pink Cup Cakes

These heart shaped scrambeld eggs were a hit!



Jello Harts
Preston steamed to be happy with his blueberries and bannans...,



.... BUT then he saw this brownie heart and it was all over!!!


I just caught him in time before he went to town! ;)


Busted!
He settled for the plate...

... and sure had fun with it!


Oh, and he also LOVES his sippy cup!

What a big boy!
Last picture of the day. Three smiling kids! Thanks to flash no one is blurry! ;)
I hope you enjoyed the pictures. What did you guys do for V-day?
