These last 2 weeks have been full, for sure. Maggie came down with a random and pitiful little sickness. She had the "hand, foot & mouth" viral illness for about a week. She ran fever for 3 days, and had the worst mouth ulcers I (a nurse) have ever seen. She must of had 50 in her tiny little mouth. She did not want to eat for about 3 days and had very disrupted sleep for about 3 days, too. Needless to say we all 3 got a bit run down...and sick too. Todd and I both ended up with stuffy noses, sore throats and hoarse voices. Then to top it all off...we had Hannah, Todd's little sister in town for a week long visit. You guessed it...she got sick too. Poor gal! She had it the worst, with a fever of 101 and huge, swollen tonsils. She ended up on 2 antibiotics to kick it!
Thankfully Hannah was feeling better in just a few days, and we could still make her visit fun. We ate out, slept late, saw a few movies, went to Sam Moon and did some shopping! She is such a wonderful gal (and a big help) and we love spending time with her. It is an annual thing for her to come and stay with us for a week in the summer. She is a precious part of our family. Maggie is crazy about her Aunt Hannah and still (even this morning) when she wakes up asks "where did Aunt Hannah go"?
Now on to the best part...Birthday celebrating! I turned 30 on the 29th and then Maggie turned 2 on the 30th! We had a super fun weekend of celebrating. Todd took me out for a night on the town for dinner, drinks and dancing! What a guy! It was fun, romantic and memorable. Thanks baby for a great 3oth birthday! I love You!
I had to include some pictures of my birthday flowers that Todd got me. They are by far, the most BeAuTiFuL lilies (my fave flower) that I have ever seen!!!!! The blooms are bigger than my hand! Their fragrance fills our house and there are still blooms that haven't even opened, yet. Aren't they gorgeous?
Now, on to celebrating my girls sweet #2! We ended up having a get together her at our house with family and our closest friends. We had 39 people here to celebrate with us. Thanks so much friends and family who came. You are so near and dear to our hearts and our little family! Participating in the celebration of Maggie's second year of life means so much to us! Love to all!
We had hot dogs, dips, cake/ice cream....a bounce house, bubbles, balloons and water guns....these are a few of my girls FaVoRiTe things....anyone else get that Sound of Music song (favorite things) in their head, too?
Maggie loves people. She is our little social gal. She really enjoyed the party and seeing all of the people who are MOST precious to her, all in one place! Enjoy the pics from her day!
Take care, and we hope everyone has a blessed week!

Whoo-hoo big fun at the Hunt household!!! Minus the sickness, that is! Bless your hearts. :(
I'm so glad that you birthday girls enjoyed your respective celebrations! You make 30 look SO good & Maggie puts that "terrible two's" myth to rest for sure. What a sweetie pie she is!
I LOVE the pictures. I especially love the one of you & Maggie, the one of Maggie with the balloons, and the one of you & Todd at the bottom. What great memories!
Leah, she looked so cute in her tutu. I can't believe she is already 2. That means mine is shortly behind her. It looks like yall had a fun time and Happy 30th to you too. I'm not too far behind you there too, 29 in September. Anyway, love the pics.
