Sweet Home Alabama

I have a great hubby.  Plain and simple.  He picked up on the fact that I miss Alabama and it had been way to long since we last visited.  So for my birthday last weekend he planned a trip down!

First things first though, we needed a birthday cake!  I made my favorite chocolate cake and he decorated it:)  I was actually just going to frost it all one color (because colored frosting is more fun than white), but when he got home from work and saw my little box of cake decorating supplies, he was inspired! 

And I admit, once I saw him decorating, I thought it sounded fun too.  So I did the green and he did the rest:)

We headed south on Thursday, which was my actual birthday, and since we crossed time zones, I got to celebrate for 25 hours instead of 24!

Friday we spent some time at the preschool, doing a small baking activity and hanging out with some pretty cute kiddos.

I also got to introduce Summer to Devin.  He's in 7th grade now.  I'm just not sure how that happened!  Whatever happened to my crazy, scrawny, white haired preschooler?  He was pretty sweet with her though.  We took him out to lunch and later walked around a pet store to kill some time.  He carried her seat around and talked to her all about the different fish.  Then later when we were taking him home he sat right by her and held her hand while she fell asleep.

She was ready to eat some Mexican food!

The rest of the weekend was spent just spending some good quality time with everyone down there.  Games, fellowship, good food, and cute kids.

Oh, and this was taken soon after she rolled from back to tummy for the first time!

Thanks for such a great birthday, honey.  You're the best!
