Sorry I'm a little slow with this post. It's been a very busy week! I haven't had much time in the evenings to blog!!! Last weekend we headed to Caldwell so Rylee could celebrate her 3rd birthday with our family down there! We got to town pretty late on Friday night but Rylee sure was wound up when we got there. She was very excited to see PaPa & MeMe!! I had to force her to go to bed though cause I didn't want her to be a grouch on Saturday for her party!
We slept in a little bit on Saturday morning but then it was up and atom to get ready for her party @ 1pm. I was busy most of the morning wrapping her presents and getting things ready. Ashlee finally made it over! The girls are just the best of buds and had really missed each other!! They were soooo excited to see each other. And Ash just couldn't wait for the b-day party to start.
Before lunch, we headed up to the Phoenix House to see Granny OO and PaPa H and their new "apartment." We hadn't gotten to see them since they were moved there. They were very, very happy to see Rylee!! PaPa H celebrated his birthday on Friday so Rylee enjoyed taking him is b-day card! We were glad we were home so we could celebrate both of their birthdays!!
We had to hurry home so we could each lunch and I could finish getting ready for the party!
Here is a picture of more princess goods!!
Here are the girls getting ready for the party!!

We are so thankful that we were able to celebrate with PaPa, MeMe, Granny OO, PaPa H, Mema, Uncle D, Aunt Keira, Andrew, Ash, The Rice Family (Kirstan, GoGo, Lexie & Corbin) and Debbi Cay!!
Ash & Rylee just LOVE the Rice Girls!!! They fight over "My GoGo" and "My Lexie!!
Here are the girls with their Great-Grandma's - Granny OO & Mema
After everyone left, it was nap-time for Rylee! While she was napping, we had more family come over. My cousin Shannon, her husband Dennis, and their kids Lanie, Bailey, Kylie & Logan. It had been a while since we had seen them so we were so glad they were able to make it down for a while. They didn't have much time so we had to wake Rylee up from her nap. She was NOT ready to get up!!!! They got her the cutest Cinderalla dress & crown. Little miss wasn't quite awake so she really didn't care too much about it at the time. The Mackey's had to head back to Goddard. I'm so glad we got to see them and visit!!
After they left, Rylee finally woke up and was acting like her normal self. She was ready to dress up like a princess!!! Here she is
She absolutely LOVES her new dress and crown!! So did Ash! I guess I know what we are getting Ash for her b-day next month!
We had a great time in Caldwell....however, our time there always seems to go by so fast! We look forward to seeing our fam again in a few weeks!!!
It is now Friday evening and Rylee and I are home relaxing! I'm having her 3-year pictures taken tomorrow at Penney's so we plan to call it an early night!!!! I still have to decide just how I'm going to fix her hair! Always such a dilemna now that she has a OPINION!!!!
Nothing else is happening for us. It is supposed to be beautiful out this weekend so hopefully we can spend some time in the backyard! I'll try to post pictures if we do!
I hope everyone had a great week and has an even better weekend!!!! Until next time....TTFN!!
