Tyler's party

Well, originally I wasn't going to do much of a party for Tyler, because he didn't really care one way or the other. I figured I'd just invite a couple of my friends and their kids out to a playground for a little play date and bring some cupcakes. Things are never quite that simple, and it evolved into inviting our entire Sunday School class and all their children for a picnic lunch party after church at said playground. Well, wouldn't you know it has rained non-stop this entire weekend, so everyone ended up coming over to our house after church today. It worked out fine...we had a pinata that we beat to death (or should I say, Ashley beat to death) in the garage (note to self: next time, parents would probably appreciate you sweeping out the garage before inviting kids to crawl all over the floor picking up candy!). A good time was had by all, and now we can FINALLY stop eating cake and get back to normal (after today...as you can see by the size of that cake, there is a ton left, that will find itself on the table in the breakroom at work tomorrowm morning!).

The moment you've all been waiting for...

I know, it's taken me forever to post these pics, but the bathroom is finally complete! It's actually been done for probably 2-3 weeks now (keep in mind we started this at the beginning of February!). The pics make the lighting look kind of weird, but rest assured, the lighting is lovely and we are very happy with it! Compare with those earlier pics...it's an extreme makeover!

TyTy Turns Three!

Here are a few pics from his birthday last night. Gramma and Grampa Schulz picked Ashley up after school and the three of them decorated our house so Tyler would be surprised when we got home. He got a t-ball set and a t-shirt from Aunt Helen, a big boy bike and helmet from Mommy and Mallory, clothes, a Spiderman umbrella, and new sections for his train track from G & G, and lots of stuff from Mamaw and Papaw...a new floaty-vest for swimming, some jungle animals, and a water balloon ball game. The umbrella is his favorite so far...he and Ashley have been pretending it's raining in the house all last night and all morning so far. Sure wish it wasn't really raining outside, as we are scheduled to have a big party at a park tomorrow after church, and I have a bad feeling we'll be hosting all those people inside our house tomorrow instead!
