32 years young

 I know I know, I'm sure this is coming as quite a surprise that I'm 32.  Tell me about it!  It's so true what they say, time really flies by once you have kids.  It's so weird how it all works.  Luckily, birthday's are a joy to have in my house.  I feel so lucky to be this happy and to be spending another year alive surrounded by people that I love so very much. 
My birthday fell on a Saturday this year, SCORE!  So what else would we do but head on down to the beach!  Pt Pleasant so the girls could enjoy the rides, cause you know it's all about them, even on my birthday.  We got down and bought our lunch onto the beach to eat first. 
But first, let me get a pic with my girlies.

We couldn't not feel the water.  It was numbing!  As Mya was running in and out, getting her toes wet, she fell.  SOOOOO, that let to her not caring at all about her butt and whole outfit getting wet.  Luckily we had a spare in the car, so HAVE FUN!

Ash isn't as brave initially.  She clung to daddy for her life!  LOL!

But slowly, she put her toes in....

...and lifts them up when she feels how cold it is.  Mya on the other hand, just sits there! LOL!

I LOVE how much she loves the ocean.

My little diva.

Had to set up a timer for a family shot.

Ash couldn't stop saying how bad she wanted to go on the swings.  So that was our first stop once we got up onto the boardwalk.

WEEEEE

Next up, boats.  I remember these from when I was a kid.

Ash was too little for the roller coaster, but didn't want to go on it anyway.  Mya went on solo, my little dare devil!

Had to hit this one next of course!  NO HANDS, I can't!

Before this started moving, they had me "spin as fast as you can!"  Once we started going, Ash was a little hesitant and clung to me, I think I just needed to close my eyes and hold Ash tight, lol!  Mya just wanted FASTER!!!

My loves 

 See, Ash was happy, but Ryan's face was cut off.

 Stopped by the Leonhardts on the way home....CUTIES in Reese's new room!

Ry had everyone come over for cake, which was awesome. 

The girls helped me make a wish....

LOVE MY FAM

Ry made the most amazing ice cream cake.   Better than Carvel.  Cookies and cream ice cream and cinnamon, with crunchies in the middle and heath bars on top!

My brothers....

Had to take a funny one....

LOVE THEM!

I'm stronger!

Love you Mary....xo

My love....always and forever.

smooches

These 3!

Didn't remember I had the girls' birthday crown on, lol!

Here's to many more years!!! WHOOOHOOO!!!!!!  25 never felt so good!!!

Happy Birthday to my girlies

So, the last combined birthday party we had for the girls.  Next year, with Mya in Kindergarten and Ash in pre-k, we just feel like this is the last time we can do this.  So again, we had it in the middle of both of their birthday's, which fell on May 3rd.  Yet again, we got blessed with wonderful weather!  The weather gods sure do love us. 

The girls both wanted a "Frozen" party.  Seriously not sure how I make it frozen besides the invites, but hey whatever!   

Our amazing Osmond crew.

Ash, little girlie never wants to smile for her mama.

If she does, she's not looking at me.

Little sandbox, lots of kiddies.

I took NO pics of the decorations.  Since Mya's favorite color is purple and Ashley's is blue, I just incorporated them both into the banner. 

Literally just did the banner and got the streamers and used the decorations from all the other parties we've had for them.  Tried to keep it easy.

Lots of Mimi hugs.

BFF's

Had to have some arts and crafts for the kids to do.  Painting face masks was first.

I should have probably cleaned off the mat before I whipped it back out this year.  Oh well, they didn't care.

Mya, my little artist, was not happy that everyone was mixing their colors together.  She was literally the only kid who really took the time and did color by color on the different parts.  She is so artistic, totally gets that from her daddy. 

Almost cleared out.

Auntie and Ash.  LOVE how Ash holds faces when she takes pics with people.

These 2 are just trouble together!

Can't take this cutie and his cheeks.

fam shot before singing.

Cake time.  Ash was not feeling it.  I'm not sure why but she literally got up and walked away.

the walk off....

These 2 are like 2 peas in a pod, LOVE their love for eachother.

Reesie jumped in too!

Pinata time.  Seriously so stressful having so many kids and keeping them from getting hit!  OY!

Like daddy like daughter.  Ava swinging for a win!  LOL at Poppy and Lenny's face!

*MELT*

This little guy is just the cutest.  Ry was tossing him up.

Eva wanted to go next!

Best buds, Mya just adores Gia.

And I just adore this cutie pie.

Getting a ride from her daddy.

LOL!

She got this tutu and put it on immediately!  Little princess.

These 2 take the cutest pics.

Tickles from daddy, trying to get a pic.

GOT IT!

Nona's turn.

Meanwhile, this loon was just running around.

Present time.

OMG LIGHT UP SNEAKERS from Mimi and Poppy.  HER FACE! 

Dewey = done, Ashley = in her new suit from the Leonhardts, lol

Mya and Nona, Mya's in a new dress too.  Gotta love when you see the winners of the gifts, lol.

Thank you's are going out soon, PROMISE!  Just was waiting to get the best pic!

LOVE

I hope everyone had fun at the party.  I know the girls did.  Thank you for coming out to celebrate and for all of the lovely gifts.  We are so blessed to have you all in our lives.  xoxo
