Still Celebrating

Tay's birthday celebrations spanned a weeks time! Memaw and Papa are now carrying on the traditions that both sets of our grandparents did. Shopping and dinner! I think sleepovers may come when they're older?!

So, in true birthday spirit, they let the birthday kid pick a restaurant and anything they want within their price range (although I'm not sure they've set one yet...that's sure to come when they hear Hayden's b'day list!), and they get to it!

Tay picked out a bunch of pink stuff..and chose ribs for dinner. DUH!...what else is new?!?!!

We also had a fun-tastic birthday party! Taylor invited all of her little friends...Cash and Cooper, Kadie and Carter, Kady, Courtney, Jax and Bella, Morgan and Melissa over for some good play time. They made cool necklaces and went home with takeout containers of CANDY!! Lots and lots of yummy candy!

Cathy's 75th Birthday!

My mother-in-law turned 75 years old in March. Meghan flew in for the celebration. Or, celebrations, maybe I should say! I think Nana had fun, but was a bit burned out from party, after party for a whole weekend! Needless to say, it was a fun few days!

Mary Poppins!

I found a bargain online the week before Mary Poppins rolled into town. Four tickets for forty dollars! I called my mom to see if she was available, knowing that even if she wasn't she'd probably clear her schedule for this! ;)

So, a few days later, on the Friday night before Valentine's day, we went on a girls date! Mom treated us to dinner at Cheesecake Factory, and we enjoyed an AMAZING production of Mary Poppins! We were in the upper level...but quite honestly, our seats were really good and I'd sit up there again! The bathrooms were not crowded (if you've been to Gammage, you know what I'm talking about!), and we had an unobstructed view!

The show, itself, went beyond anything I could imagine. The broadway producation of Mary Poppins was practically perfect in every way! Captivating, magical and totally imaginative! Hayden and Tay loved it so much that they watched Mary Poppins multiple times throughout that weekend, trying to re-live it!
