Sunday Afternoon Sprinkles



For Mother's Day, Abbey was busy writing for an assignment, so she stayed at church while the boys and I hung out in the backyard.



After naptime, we decided that we would go out to the backyard and play.



We have a sprinkler that Manya bought for the boys. It sprays water everywhere!



Reed and Nash LOVED it.



Reed hates getting water in his eyes. Nash pretends to hate to get water in his eyes, so every time Reed would get water in his eyes, he would pretend to not be able to see and run right to me.





Reed has learned how to make himself swing "super high."







He asked me if that was a "good smile". He is so funny.



This morning Reed woke up wanting to go to school with Ms. Candie. Ms. Candie is his preschool teacher. He said that he needed to see Abby. I asked who Abby was. He said, "She's my girlfriend." Um ... hello, you are in preschool, why do you have a girlfriend?



Reed wore this swimsuit during his first summer home. It's too big for Nash!



We've got to get some meat on his belly.



Reed found mud and he was having a blast.







Will was enjoying being in the sun and soaking up the vitamin D.



For some reason, unbeknownst to me, Nash didn't want to go near the mud.



Reed on the other hand, wanted to wallow in it.



Soon, I realized that Nash was shivering.







After we dried off, we went out on the front porch and had popsicles.



The boys got busy looking for bugs.









We missed having Mommy home during Mother's Day, but we did have a fun time. It was good time.





I was doing dishes downstairs and then came upstairs to find this. Um ... No, you can't watch TV sitting on the entertainment center!

Prince William Arthur's First Birthday



Abbey once again outdid herself on Will's first birthday.



Complete with vinyl monogram and crown, it was truly a royal affair.



While other people were waking up at crazy hours in order to watch the other royal get married, we gave our friends the opportunity to sleep in and come for a dinner party.





The party was held in our neighborhood clubhouse.



Little Princes and Princesses were able to make their own customized crowns.



Everyone left with a key-lime cake pop.



The Charming Cheese Tray.



Trafalgar Square Tea.



Crown cups.



The lemon-lime crown cake was one of the most delicious cakes I have ever put into my mouth.





Will's minicakes for digging into!



The big boys wore coordinating party colors.



Pop let Will get his first glimpse of the party.



Uncle Bill assisted in the crown making.



Lola can't believe that her own baby (Abbey) was 31 and her grandbaby was 1.



Princess Carah.



The Frey Royals.

Princess Emma.



Prince Nash.



Princess Cate.

Yummy Birthday cake.





Will loved his cake.



Nash loved helping him.





Will was much more into eating the cake than Reed was.

It was a fabulous birthday with tons of fun with some of our best friends.
