Krystle's birthday!

St Paddy's day revisited
We had corned beef and cabbage twice this past week. I made one dinner for Monday night when Jess was here and another on St Patrick's day proper. This year we made sure our meal was "The Real McCoy". I don't think I'll settle for less anymore. The real McCoy was fantastic!

Cabbage Patch Kids
Everybody had fun wearing outer leaves of the cabbage as a hat. Wyatt started it. Danika looked the cutest in it though. It was the perfect size and reminded me of those fairy dolls with flower petals as skirts and hats.



















The goofy boys, Garrett playing shy & Wyatt with his new adult teeth coming in. Those teeth look so huge! I hope his little jaw starts growing or he won't have room for many more.

Krystle Kayleen turned Twenty-five!
March 18th was Krystle's 25th birthday. Wasn't it just yesterday that she was turning two and standing in the china cabinet like a little doll? It seems like yesterday but she's all grown up and gorgeous! The flowers Courtney picked out for her are beautiful too.





Nate picked her up in the morning and they hung out and went out for lunch. They kids were so excited to have them come back to the house so we could have a party. Each of the older kids made cards.
















Har and I bought her a rotary cutter and mat set so she can quilt and sew. She was pretty happy with it. We also got her an annual zoo membership so she and Nate can frequent the zoo whenever they want to. Free date days!








Traditional birthday breakfast
It is tradition for us to treat the birthday kid to breakfast. But since her birthday fell on a Sunday it wasn't possible for us to get away. So we continued the celebration today and took her out for a Day After Birthday Breakfast at Milo's.
Happy Birthday Krys-dolly!

Abracadabra
Garrett was waving this wand over his breakfast cereal this morning. Maybe he wanted waffles or eggs. Silly boy.

Yes, sounds like Krystle had a nice birthday :)

We had a living room camping picnic for st patricks day this year. And we went to the jumping jelly beans bouncy house place. Henry loved it.
