September 6, 2013 - HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY ISABELLA MARIE

Isabella celebrated her 5th birthday with friends and family! On Friday, her actual birthday, grandma chug and grandpa dale came over and showered her with HUGS and KISSES! We spent the day playing and then took her out to dinner. On Saturday, we had a party at the Kohl's Children's Museum, in which her friends from school and cousin came to celebrate with her. HELLO KITTY was the theme and our cousin Lynn made a super special "Hello Kitty, Rainbow Sparkle" cake for her. Check out the inside of this cake! I sent a picture to her, and she made the cake better than a bakery! And BOY was it DELICIOUS! Isabella is growing before our eyes....into a beautiful, young lady......

The Door County Getaway

Framed by 300 miles of scenic shoreline, Door County offers seaside experiences in the heart of the Midwest. For the weekend, we rented a house on the lake and got away from the hustle and bustle. We stopped to smell the "roses" and left our cell phones behind. No internet. No phone. No t.v. But you can bet I brought the tunes because you gotta have music! The girls and Baxie had a great time once they found their groove. We painted, roasted marshmallows, visited a farm, created glass crafts at a marina fest, ate lots of cheese curds that squeaked between our teeth, fed baby goats out of a bottle and played at a park. Most importantly, we enjoyed one another's company as a family and RELAXED. We hope you all RELAXED TOO......
