HaPpY Father's Day!!

Happy happy father's day to my sweet dad and my sweet husband too! How BLESSED I am! Saturday night we had my family (my parents live close now!!) and Richey's family over for a Father's Day Cookout. It was fun to have everyone over! I was in charge of dessert (my fav) and made:

- These ADORABLE cupcakes to fit our Cookout theme!

The recipe/idea was from Family Fun

- I also make my FAVORITE dessert: Paula Dean's Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding. You MUST try it. Like right now. Really! It's that good.

Then today, we went to church as a family and then came home and played and played! Reese and Riley have loved playing with my jewelry lately.

Here's Riley modeling a lovely necklace.

Here's Reese dragging it all around the house. :)

Oh and Riley has decided that she no longer is against her 'nanals.' She liked them today! She used to cry when I put them on her?? She's so silly. Aren't they cute on those tiny feet?! They're big ol' size 3s!

Then we played outside a bit with Daddy!

He even gave us rides around the yard in the (empty) pool. :)

Then it was the girls' favorite time of the day: BATH TIME!!

cheeeeese!

Riley loves water on her head...

ha! :)

Before bed, we made 'pa-ouses' (playhouses) with blankets. The girls thought it was hilarious!

I just LOVE this age (minus the pushing boundaries, tantrums, etc... ;) ). I absolutely love watching Riley with Reese and Riley. He is the sweetest, kindest daddy there ever was. He loves those girls so much and they love HIM so much. We loved celebrating him today!
