HAPPY...HAPPY...HAPPY


Birthday Boy!!!! Playing at his cousins house in MI.

So what can I say... besides the fact that we have had a  few HAPPY DAYS around our neck of the woods. Last week (June17th) we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary!!!! It feels like we have been married for so much longer...hey this is a good thing  :)  For our mini anniversary celebration we decided to go out for a date night (dinner, a walk down the naperville river front, and to run a few errands). It was great, but we are planning a downtown over night  trip with no kids (maybe Beckham...we'll see..not sure if I can part with my little man yet) to really get a break and celebrate our anniversary, I'm really looking forward to it!!!!! Also a few days later (Sat./19th) we decided last minute to go surprise my niece Stephanie in Michigan who was having her graduation party. We had a wonderful day and it was really nice seeing/spending time with family. My parents also surprised my niece and made the trip and got to meet baby Beckham for the first time as well. So the next day was Sunday, Blake's 2nd birthday and Father's day. Wow...lots of celebrating huh? So we headed back to chicagoland and I threw together dinner, a cake, and a few decorations for a little last minute b-day celebration for Blake. I feel a little bad that we didn't have a lot of time to do more for his birthday, but he is still at the oblivious and doesn't really get his birthday stage. He was more than happy with a piece of cake and a few toys to unwrap and play with.

Any ways, it was a wonderful week in which many wonderful memories were made!!!! Here are just a few pics of our recent happenings.  Side note: We finally had our new carpet installed in our family room and in our basement....it is sweet!!! Also the basement is in the "finishing touches phase", which those too add up, but at least it is at the fun stage when you see everything come together. Pics to follow soon .

Ok, so last minute throw together cake...it's a snake...next year I will plan a little better and do something way cool.
