Party #2

Saturday was Jacey's day. We started out watching Tennessee beat Kentucky in basketball, which always makes for a good day, and snacked on fruits, veggies, chex mix and cupcakes and watched the Olympics. It was a very laid back, casual shower which was pretty nice. Jacey got lots of goodies and we should be ready for her arrival soon. Jack and Abbott had a blast together as usual and it was a very fun weekend. Even though Kelly lives just 3 hours away, it's always a little sad when it's all over! I'm trying to get her to come back for my birthday and make some more cupcakes! Here's the rest of our weekend in pictures!

Snacking.

My party food fixers.

Decorating the goodness.

Icing is soooo goooood!

Hoping they're a success. Since they're all gone now, I'd say they were!

Strawberry cupcakes on the left, red velvet on the right.

Look at the tower of heaven.

What a beautiful presentation!

Abbott approves of the cupcakes. Jack was not a fan because they are so messy. I really don't know what's wrong with my kid. He had carrots and fruit instead.

Tim & Janet came all the way from Nashville to help party!

Jack helped open presents. I think he got a little tired of all the pink.

Lucky for him, he got a few gifts, too! Puzzles from Jennifer, a Lightning McQueen book from Janet and a new John Deere movie from Aunt Lissa.

Checking out the goodies for Jacey.

It can't ALL be pink, even though she did get a pink Tennessee outfit!!

I think it's almost impossible to pass up cute pink baby clothes!

Popo, Moma Jo & the boys.

Abbott was "stuck" under Jack. He said, "Help, tuck!"

Riding the choo choo train.

Ryan's whole family was here, but Ryan was missed. :(

These boys love their Moma Jo.

Maybe they're a little worn out from all the playing and running?

Abbott took some time to "cheese" for me.

We went through some old boxes to see what old baby girl stuff we could find and we found this old house with all the accessories. They had fun with this for a little while.

Jack has a pretty nasty cough and has all weekend so he was kinda worn out from that and the playing. He's been pretty still today, which is NOT the norm!

Despite coughing and a few other incidents, the weekend was a a success and we had a ton of fun. All the other little things are insignificant.

We also found out that the benefit and auction that was held for my uncle's kidney transplant was a MAJOR success, they raised over $50,000! It is so amazing! He has his transplant on Tuesday, so please keep him and his donor, Barbi in your thoughts and prayers. I'm sure it will be a very emotional day for everyone involved.
