Coggeshall, Lalaloopsy, Luke and Ice Cream - 232/365

Today was a busy day! 

We had some family fun shopping with Ed and Pam, then we went over to Coggeshall's house to visit with him a bit. 

Reagan was loving seeing all his flowers and butterflies. We even got peek at the deer on the side of the hill. Reagan's favorite part was playing with Sarge, Buddy and Corbin. She loved giving them treats. She even got to pet Buddy for a split second. He was abused, so he's a little shy of new people.

We had a great visit. 

After that, we ran up to the mall to get Laura a present for her surprise party. We ended up stopping in Build a Bear, so Reagan could do the Lalaloopsy one. She built Crumbs and was super excited!

We stopped in Yankee Candle and I got to have my picture with the elusive Luke Bryan candle. I was thrilled! LOL!

This evening, we all went over to Ron and Rachel's. Rachel forgot to put out the ice cream the other day, so she invited everyone over again for an ice cream social. We had a nice time!

Play Date Times Two - 230/365

Today we Reagan and I were having some of the girls over. 

It was going to be a beautiful day, so we blew up a couple of the pools and slip and slide. 

Deanna, Marissa and the girls all got there right at 10 and we had a great visit. The girls had a ball playing together, too.

Little Mike hug in there with everyone, too. We looked over at one point and he had the play tongs for Reagan's BBQ on his face. We howled!

This evening we were going to have a porch party with Ron and Rachel and the rest of the neighborhood crew. We had a really fun night. The kids had a blast.

Reagan was so tired at the end of the day.

Austintown Park & Matt's Comedy - 174/365

Today was Reagan's day with Grandma! She was so excited to go over there.

They did some stuff around the house, then had some lunch. Reagan was so excited to spot a "hidden Mickey" on grandma's tablecloth. She just loves searching for them!

After lunch, they decided to head up to Austintown Park with Papa Greg. They were having a great time when a few familiar faces showed up. Alivia and Jessica just happened to be there playing too. Reagan and Alivia were so excited to see each other. They hadn't gotten together in awhile. Best buds they are. Everyone had fun!

This evening, Nana, JoAnn, Brittney and I were heading up to Pick Wick & Frolic to see Matt do his comedy routine. He was opening up for T.J. Miller. He was so excited. He had quite the crowd there to see him. I think there was around 20 of us all together.

When he finally went on stage he was cool as a cucumber and delivered all his jokes effortlessly! He had the whole place laughing. We were so proud of him and so thrilled to be there to see his comedy show on the big stage. Congrats Matt!

While we were doing that, Jim and Reagan just spent some time playing in the backyard. They had a good ole time playing make believe. She loves her special daddy time.

Juice Box time!

Garden Basket & Brennley Birthday - 155/365

Today was going to be a busy day! We're leaving for Disney tomorrow, so it was prepare and pack day.

I started today with putting together the garden basket for Reagan's T-ball team. Each team was asked to donate a basket for the Canfield Baseball Club's anniversary. We chose a garden theme and everyone did great with their donations. It came out fabulous. Nana was nice enough to run it out to the club for us this evening.

This evening, we headed out to Brennley's fourth birthday at Boardman Park. It was a Rapunzel theme and all the girls dressed up in their princess stuff. It was so cute. Nicole had everything decorated just perfectly. She made this amazing donut tower herself. It was amazing! There was even a visit from Rapunzel the kids were thrilled.

One of the kids favorite parts were banging sticks against the tree. It was quite funny. Rapunzel and activities galore and banging a tree was a highlight.

It was a great little party!

Porch Party - 149/365

We had a really exciting morning. We spent it cleaning out the garage. Woohoo! Nothing better than "shopvaccing" up dead bugs. It just looks so much better when it's done though. Now we can reach all her stuff. It's great!

This evening we had a modified porch party! We didn't cook or anything, just had some popcorn, snacks and beverages. It was fun to watch the kids run around. They have so much fun on the playset. And us adults have fun chitchatting!

End of the Year Program & T-Ball - 140/365

Today was Reagan's end of the year program at school. She was so excited to have Mommy, Daddy, Nana, Papa and Grandma at her "show." They were singing all the songs they learned throughout the year for the different holidays. The kids did great and weren't even shy this time. It was so adorable!

We can't believe her first year of preschool is almost over.

This evening, she had another T-ball game. It was a little chilly and rainy, but they were still able to play. Raymond, Jennifer, Grandma, Nana and Papa were all gonna make it to the game tonight. She was so excited to have a gallery there to watch her. They did great and "won" again.

After the game, we all went over to the Phoenix for some dinner. It was nice to warm up and chit chat after the game!

Farm, Golf & S'Mores - 136/365

Today was another busy one!

Papa, Nana, Reagan and I headed down to the farm to visit with Granddad and Grandma. It wasn't a party or anything, just a little visit. It was a nice day, so we decided to take a little walk around the property. Reagan found a ton of Dandelions that had gone to fuzz. She just loves to blow them off, so we spent some time doing that. It was so cute!

While we were off doing that, Jim, Greg, Steve, Frank and Joe hit the links. They played a round of golf at Pine Lakes in Hubbard. The had a nice day and played well. They stopped for a beverage at the club house afterwards.

This evening, Jessie and Jessica invited us and Ron and Rachel up to their house to make some S'mores on their fire pit. It was so nice to let the kids run around and play, while the adults had some drinks and chatted. Everyone had a blast!

It was such a nice day for all.

Benjamin Party - 101/365

We were off to Skedaddles today for another birthday party. Benny, from Reagan's class, was having a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Party! Reagan was excited to go and see her friends. When we got there, she was being extremely shy and was hanging on us. Jim ended up taking her out to the car and talking to her. When they came back in, it was pizza time, so she did sit and eat pizza with everyone. After that, she was off with all her friends. They had a great time! His mom made each kid a turtle shell out of felt and they each had masks to wear. It was so stinking cute seeing all the turtles running around!

Turtle shells!

 Best buds!

 Happy Birthday, Ben!

 

Easter Party & Rotary Check - 90/365

Today was Reagan's first school program!

The school had their three year olds doing their Easter Program today. It was absolutely adorable! All the kids were all dressed up and sang about six songs. They had little motions and everything to go along with the songs. It was super cute and they all did great! Reagan was so excited to have mommy, daddy, Nana, Grandma and Papa Greg there to see her performance. Papa Keith was so sad, that he had a last minute meeting and couldn't make it.

After her program, we were off to her Easter Party! I was going to take pictures for everyone. The moms loved that I gave them the Halloween and Christmas parties on discs, so I said I would make one for Valentine's and Easter.

Angela had everything planned just perfectly for the party. They had an egg hunt, did three crafts, played pin the tail on the bunny, had a relay race and had a snack.

Their favorite project was a little birds nest. Angela got pretzel sticks and covered them in chocolate. Then she had edible grass and jelly beans to help finish of the nest. At the end, she gave them all a peep to top off their nest. It was SO CUTE! Reagan LOVED it!

The relay race was super cute, too! They had to carry a plastic egg on a spoon to the Easter Basket! They all did great! It was a super fun party!

After the party, Nana and I ran a few errands around town. We went to the Austintown Party store where Reagan became quite fond of a Super Mario mask. It was HILARIOUS!

Jim had a great day at Rotary. They were able to donate $1000 to the local YMCA. Another great day for Boardman Rotary!
