{popping in}

So it's February 13th already, and I said I'd be back in the beginning of February, not the middle! I feel like I blinked and January was over, then I blinked again and it was the middle of February. I suppose that's how it is when you've got two little ones and a busy husband! Our year has had a wonderful start, and the blessings abound as we celebrate Emmaline's 2nd birthday.

I can't believe my baby is 2 today... it went by so fast! Her birthday party was Saturday and she loved it. We were going for a Noah's Ark theme, with the whole 2 by 2 thing, but I decided I'd rather focus on the rainbow than the animals. I used lots of ideas I found on pinterest (who doesn't love pinterest?) to make her decorations and was so pleased with how everything turned out. I even made a rainbow cake that tasted as good as it looked (I thought all the food coloring might make it taste like plastic, but it was good!).

My sister took a bunch of pictures but still has them on her camera, so once I get them I'll share them with you!

As far as the blog goes, I'm going to slowly start posting again and see how it goes. I've enjoyed my hiatus, but miss blogging and am excited to share lots of photos I've been taking with my new camera.
