Dad's 50th B-day...

So my dad's 50th b-day was quite the day...the kids and I got up early and went to my parents house to wake Papa up and have breakfast with him..which was really fun. That afternoon my mom, the kids, and I were off to go to Tiff's volleyball game and I got in a nasty accident...needless to say the van was totalled. Thankfully Ethan and Cara were not hurt at all!! I had some big bumps on my head and bruises on my legs but nothing permanent. My poor mother broke her thumb and tore the ligaments that go to her thumb so she is in a cast for 8-10 weeks. So we were at the Quick Care until 8pm, which kinda put a damper on my dad's b-day. We did go to a late dinner at Applebee's (Dad's favorite). On Friday we made up for it and had a surprise b-day party for him. It went really well and there were lots of people there.

My New Van...
Yesterday my husband went to PA and picked up our new van (new to us). We got a really good deal and it is super nice! I will post some pics soon of my new toy :-) Hopefully other cars will stay away!!

Here is a couple of recent pics for your enjoyment

Papa, Ethan, and Cara...not the best pick, but it was real early in the am, so they have an excuse :-)



Me and My Honey..Aren't we cute!



Ethan at the party...look at those eyes!



Tiff and Bryan at the party.



The Collins Clan (and Cliffords and Hapers)
Note: Ethan is biting me in this picture, I tried to keep a smile, but it was kinda hard! I have no clue why he bit me, he was not mad at all, totally random!



Another pic of The Collins Clan
Note: I handed Ethan over to Bryan...He would never bite him!



Cara-how she sleeps best...SWADDLED



My Little Ones (It is so hard to get a 2 year old and a 2 month old to smile at the same time!..)



Cara sleeping again...I thought she looked real cute with her arm above her head all comfy in mom and dad's bed.



Our House...no we normally don't have all those signs in it, we woke up one morning to this...wonder who did it ??
