Sawyer turns 2!!

Sawyer turned two. It feels like she has been two for a while :). However Sunday was great. The weather cooperated so we were able to be outside! 

I made ice cream cone cakes! So easy! Dora themed of course!

The spread 

Desserts!

Do, do do do DORA! Do, do do do DORA!

The happy birthday girl! 

Putting the hotdogs on! 

So much love and support through the family and friends who came!

Cousins! 

The 'cake'

Trying to blow out the one candle I could keep lit.

MMMM, Dora!

"Cate"

Ryder loved the cake just as much as Sawyer!

"Preprents"

Wrestling with the cousins! 

and Grandpa! Such goofballs!

Great way to end a great afternoon!

The backyard

 We've (we mostly Morgan) has been working on the fence. I have been working on my herb garden. These pictures don't really do it justice. I'll have to take some more pictures soon to show you the change. The fence is almost done. Just needing the gates.

Happy Mother's Day to me. A truck full of dirt!! Morgan's poor truck was just a little weighed down. 

Unloading the dirt

SOO much dirt. And yes we needed more. 

Prepping for the fence! 

Digging the first fence post hole.

Helping?!

Yes, she helped where she could!

New pottery!

Last week Lloyd put on their Art Market and we joined in with a pottery sale and Play with Clay. The sale wasn't as successful as I'd hoped but I sold some pieces nonetheless. 

Setting up on of our many tables. 

1 of 3 tables. 

Just a few of my pieces are on here. The butter dish on the second shelf and the blueish green bowl on the top shelf. 

Play with Clay! We had free handbuilding for the community. We had about  65 participants! WAY  more that we were expecting! 

Even Sawyer came to play

She and Morgan made tons of animals. She had a blast!! 

Coop - on food

Well I must say I've been procrastinating with Cooper. Sawyer was on cereal at 4 months. And Coop is now on food at 6 months. He is such a good eater! Both kids are. Here are some shots of Cooper eating. 

And his most recent haircut! He sat really good. I gave him a comb to play with and he just sat there! What a trooper!

Summer fun!

It doesn't matter how nice it is outside, Sawyer always wants to "go 'side". Bathing suit or not, into the kiddy pool she goes. Cooper also loves being outside, he however has yet to venture into the kiddy pool (or be place there), although I'm sure it won't be long. She also loves the "play" or "weee" (playground). She spends many hours outside.

Probably my fav -EVER
