Adventures in Idaho: Reunion Day 3

Easter egg hunt! The kids got to go around looking for eggs and then they got a prize (Ory picked a squirt gun... not a surprise). The rest of the day was spent hanging out at the cabin and going on floats! Glenna, Melina, Carrie & I went on a float and it was hilarious!! We had a blast and I think Melina and Carrie mostly warmed up to the float by the time it was over! You'd think those Samoan girls would LoVE the water, but they did good and we had so much fun. I was also busy working on making cakes for Ory's 2nd BIRTHDAY!! (It was actually the day before, but we wanted to wait to celebrate when Shawn came THAT DAY! I was soo excited to see him. Ory even helped on his cake (he LOVES helping me in the kitchen... especially cleanin up!)

When Shawn came up (sportin a sweet beard... no not really) to the cabin the boys were so excited. Orin had been asking where "Uncle Shawn" was the whole time... you know you are gone a lot when your son calls you uncle... he he! :) So he was glad to see "uncle shawn" aka daddy again!

That night Santa came to town... he was kind enough to take a break from his summer vacation to meet with the lil girls & boys. And yes, Ory is still terrified of Santa! Poor guy!



Later that night we celebrated our little Ory-eo turning TWO! I can't believe it! He is such a fun, spunky, animated (everything he does is animated!), thoughtful & amazing little guy and has made our lives just that much more full, fun & entertaining (never a dull moment!)! I love being his mommy and am so lucky to have such an fun loving & sweet little boy!




and did I mention I was glad to have my husband back!! and so proud of all he does for us! LOVE HIM!
