March Madness!

We have managed to keep ourselves ridiculously busy the past couple weeks!

We had dinner at our house a couple weeks ago to celebrate my dad and Grandpa's birthdays.

We made them Dad's favorite...yellow cake with chocolate icing.

Ruston spent a good amount of time moving the "Happy Birthday" toothpicks back and forth between the plate and the cake. :)

Last Saturday, Danny and I got to go see one of my favorite bands play... I LOVE Suede! I've talked about them before...they are still fabulous!

I only had my phone, so the pics are crappy. :(  JD and Melanie met us there!

My momma was there too :)

This Friday, we went to pick up Danny and got there pretty early.  We went to the park behind the DPS building and played for a while.  This boy loves being outside.  He chased every bird, squirrel, and leaf all the way across the playground! haha

Yesterday, Ruston and I loaded up with Lauri and Ainsley.  We headed to Houston for little Mason's first birthday party!

I haven't gotten the chance to see Natalie and Juaquin's house, so I was excited for the trip.

They had a little swimming pool outside filled with colored balls.  I think Ruston could have stayed in it all day long! Guess that's the next "toy" on my list. haha

Poor kids probably thought my child was crazy diving into the balls and swimming around :)

 Miss Ainsley kept herself entertained with all the cool toys on the exersaucer.

Lunch with the birthday boy...

Natalie got out the Bumbo for one of the smaller kiddos to sit in, but Ruston just made himself at home and plopped right down!

He got to feed his addiction with beating things!! But this time it was acceptable. :)

Happy Birthday, Mason!!

He smashed that cake to pieces!

I love these pictures!

It's crazy how different these pictures look from the way they did back in high school.

 So blessed to have such good friends that have been around for so long.

Today, Melanie and I threw Megan and Aaron a surprise diaper shower.  And what I really mean is, Melanie did! ha! Today was just a really rough day and I was pretty much no help at all.  Luckily, Melanie is a party host by nature, so it worked out OK.

 I am so jealous of her cupcake stand! It was perfect for today and her cupcakes were DEEEElicious!

Cute little diaper cake. :)

I was in and out of the party, so this is the only picture I got of the guests' of honor! They were very surprised. :)

Lots more exciting events coming up this month! I can't believe it's already April!!!
