My Birthday

My birthday was March 5th and we didn't really have too much planned aside from dinner at the Cheesecake Factory per my request. On the 4th Ryan took Dominick to go to the store to buy me a card and for him to pick out something specifically from him. When he walked into Meijer he went over to the produce section and then ended up seeing the flowers. He ran over to them and said, "ooooooh flowers! Momma!" Ryan said he picked out orange ones that were wilted so Ryan said to pick another color and Dom said red and picked these. He was SO proud of himself when he walked in the door with them.

On the 5th Ryan worked and Dominick and I went to Chick-Fil-A to play that morning. I had tons of phone calls, e-mails, texts and wishes. It turned out to be a great day. Ryan, Dom and I went to the Cheesecake Factory where we had dinner and cheesecake. 

A Quick Trip to Michigan, Gender Reveal Party and Sledding in Ohio

I can't believe it's been 2.5 months since I last posted. A LOT has been going on lately (some of which I'm not really ready to post just yet). I guess let's start from where I left off shall we?

Mid February Dominick and I headed to Michigan for a week and Ryan followed that weekend. My best friend since first grade is having twins so I threw her a gender reveal party. It was SO fun planning and being the first to know the gender of the sweet babes.

the first day we got there we went to a local bakery and got donuts!

the cake!

drink station...if you are throwing a party make tassel garland! So easy and so cheap!

That weekend we also went to see Garth Brooks and to my nieces birthday party at a bounce place in Grand Rapids. Unfortunately I was too excited and didn't take any pictures at the concert or the party. We were there, though!

The first day of March we still had a bunch of snow in Ohio. We bought sleds shortly after we arrived and since we had SO much snow we found a big hill and together we went. Dom had such a fun time and honestly so did we. The hill was pretty icy from all the sledders so it was super fast. Dom's favorite part was making snow balls and eating the fresh snow and throwing snow balls.
