Cameron's 2nd Birthday!

For Cameron's 2nd birthday, we had a mustache party!
It was so much fun!
Thanks to my silhouette, I was able to cut out many mustaches without a lot of work, which I really appreciated.

I can't believe my boy is two. He amazes us everyday with how fast he learns and how observant he is.
He is a sweet boy who loves hugs and kisses and even though we have our rough moments, we still love every minute with him.
He is doing great with both Spanish and English as well as Sign Language.
We use sign as a base language between the two languages so he knows that the words mean the same thing. It's working really well for us so that now when I ask him in English what a word is in Spanish he can tell me. Not all words, obviously, but a lot.
We are so impressed with how well he is picking it up.

Enjoy the pictures of his special day!

 

Birthday Cake

We had a surprise birthday party for my mother-in-law a while back and I made this cake. 

It was really fun to make plus, it was delicious!

Birthday Party!

We had a small birthday party for Cameron.
It was a nice little brunch.
Cameron loved opening presents.
He was concentrating so hard he had his tongue out the whole time.
Such a cutie!

One Year!

Happy Birthday to my boy!
I can't believe he is a year old.
He's still my baby though.
Don't you just love that drool?!

Happy Birthday to my Babe.

Tommy is the very best of the best.

He is smart, he is patient, he is kind, he loves me, and he is the best dad in the world.

I am so happy to be his wife. I can't imagine a more wonderful man.

Happy Birthday to my Babe.

I love you always and forever.

Everybody likes you when you're 24

I was thinking today about my age.

24.

Not old. Not young. Just right.

I also thought about what I have accomplished so far.

I am a mom to a perfect little boy, I am a wife to the best husband, I am a daughter and sister to the best family (not that I can really take credit for that), I have a job that I love, a wonderful house, and I have the gospel in my life.

All these wonderful blessings and more.

Everything is great, now that I am 24.

My awesome birthday present from my boys.

Happy Birthday Mom and Dad!

My parents are the best parents in the world. 

They are selfless and kind and they have always put their children before themselves. 

Their birthdays are only two days apart, so we get to celebrate them together!

I love you both very much and I hope you have/had great birthday-days :)

Love, 

Alisha

Birthday Cake!

For Tommy's birthday, I made a cake from a recipe I found a while back on Make It and Love It.

It's called "almost too much chocolate cake."

It was fabulous! And really not that hard to make.

Most of all, Tommy loved it and that was enough for me!

The Aftermath:

Happy Birthday to my Tommy!

Happy Birthday to...

My Lover

My Best Friend

My Husband

I love you more than anything baby!

Happy Birthday Brother and Sister! {Late}

Happy 3 days late birthday to my awesome brother Brant!

The greatest and nicest person you will ever meet in your life. 

He has always been such a great example to me and I love him very much!

I love you, Brant!

Happy 1 day late birthday to my beautiful sister Carla!

The most talented person you'll ever meet.

She sings like a rock star, and she just made the most awesome baby bedding for me. 

Plus, she has the cutest kids on the planet!

I love you, Carla!

Happy Birthday Mechelle!

Mechelle is the sweetest person I know.

She has unlimited talents.

There is nothing she can't do.

She has the cutest kids around.

She has trouble keeping her eyes open in pictures with me.

This first one was a conscience effort.

I love you Mechelle!

Happy Easter Birthday!

Happy Birthday Big Brother!

Marc is the funniest person I know.
He taught me how to be tough phisically and mentally - mostly against my will.
He hates the joke "how's the weather up there?"
He loves In-N-Out Burger.
He loves the Smashing Pumpkins.
He loves Candace.
He loves his "pinto bean" aka his unborn child Corgan.

Today, he is the oldest brother I've ever had.

Happy Birthday Marco Polo!
I love you!

Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Sister

From the time I was very young, she took care of me, watched out for me, and was my friend when no one else was.

We were two peas in a pod.

Always hiding from chores in the corn field and climbing the wheeping willow in the front yard.

She is one of the best friends I've ever had.

Happy Birthday Brianne!

I love you!
