a birthday silobration.

every birthday deserves a trip to magnolia.

[and if you can fit three moms and four carseats in one vehicle, you win.]

that cupcake, totally worth it.

happy birthday sarah and emily!

[also, i have yet to go on a day that it's not the windiest! 

one of these times i'll maybe get a model picture there. ha.]

the "mom squad."

we all moved to texas and became friends.

then we loving called ourselves the "mom squad."  

because these are all our babies.

and sometimes we do crazy things like go to the 9:30 showing of la la land.

[and realize we're getting too old for this!]

...so grateful for these friends. 

park days.

winter in texas is the absolute best part about living here. 

there might be disgusting bugs, and snakes, and dreadfully hot summers...

but winter!!!

we have a few cold days here and there but most weeks have one or (five) days we can go to the park or on walks or just be outside in a nice 75 degrees.  

we are living it up.  

zoo day.

derek's brother got us a zoo season pass for christmas.  we invited the "mom squad" [as we lovingly refer to ourselves... mostly, we just look like a walking circus with all our strollers and babies. HA!] and spent a day at the zoo.  i think emery had more fun watching the people than the animals, but we still had a fun time!
