Cousin Michaela's Third Birthday

We made a very quick trip to West Virginia this weekend to celebrate Michaela's third birthday. We were there for a total of 36 hours and Evan was sleeping for approximately 21 of them. We made the most of the time we had though.

Evan, unexpectedly, got to meet his Uncle Chase for the first time. He woke up on Saturday morning, walked into the kitchen and walked right into Chase's arms. He hugged him like a long lost friend. It was awesome. It wasn't long before the wrestling began.


Evan and Michaela got reacquainted.


Michaela proved what a great big sister she'll be one day by going outside and yelling and laughing like she was having the time of her life while Evan stood inside and longed to be out there with her. 


We FaceTimed with Annie while Michaela opened her presents. 



Evan got to wear his first ever princess party hat.


It was a beautiful weekend. We had lots of outside time.

Showing me her dance moves.
It's like herding cats, but Grandma does an okay job. 

We met with Grandma Barbi and Grandpa Ed for some fun at the park. Evan pretty much ignored all of the adults and played in the sand. I've never seen him focus on a single task for so long. Note to self: get a sandbox. At least Grandma and Grandpa got to see how good he's walking... all over the place


More outside time...


They like each other okay, but not this close. 

I'm so happy that I've been able to spend every birthday with Michaela. Shall we take a look back?
