Cooper's 1/2 Birthday

Since Cooper's birthday falls in the summer when school is not in session, his preschool celebrates the child's birthday on their half birthday- complete with treats and goodie bags.

So here are Cooper's birthday treat bags and favors to share with his friends.

Dinosaur toys (stitched by Mama) with attached treat bags (filled with Lollipops and Fruit snacks- Cooper's favorites)

 10 Little Dinosaurs ready for the party


Happy 1/2 birthday Cooper!

Blizzard 2014

Regardless of what the weatherman might say... 11.5 inches of snow and negative temperatures including wind chill is a Blizzard to me.

All Sparkles are safely snuggled into our warm house on this very cold day and enjoying a few extra days of vacation from work and school.

Yesterday proved to be quite exciting with the continual fall of snow all day but that did not deter the Sparkles from heading out for some adventures.

Here is a look down the main road of our subdivision (Nana and Papa's house is on the left hand side).

 Don't beavers love the snow...

 This one sure does

 The picture might be blurry but the joy is unmistakable.

Stay warm!

Build a Sparkle

We kicked off 2014 with a date night to Build a Bear with Lillian.

She loved picking out her new friend and all the accessories.


Meet Sparkle Sparkman- the monkey :)
