Popa's Birthday

We just celebrated Popa's 60th birthday. We had a tie-dye and Hawaiian themed party! Yes I know they really don't go together but Popa loves dolphins and the oceans so we try and let him enjoy it as much as we can while living in CO. Then the tie-dye...Popa loves his tie-dye and all the grandkids think its fun to match him so we had them all wear their tie-dye shirts, yes even Goose already has one ;)


Here's Monkey and Goose watching Dino Dan while waiting for everyone to show up.
Monkey insisted that Goose sit on the couch with him but then he kept falling over on him so he wanted him off after a few minutes.


The weather was great! It wasn't super hot but it was sunny and nice.


Yep! We had to do all 60 candles! How else do you celebrate 60 years?!?!


He got them all out with one blow but then the right side re-lit without being trick candles and he had to blow them out again.


See the dolphins that are full of sugar...ya Monkey ate a dolphin and no cake! 


Enjoying some great laughs and stories of past parties and fun!


The kids enjoyed some fun outside games. 

We all really enjoyed celebrating my dad and all that he is to us! 
He is so important in our lives and I wouldn't be who I am today without him!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
