a baptism-birthday bash with cousins

Our busy week of "celebrating" finished off with an even busier weekend of celebrations...

My brother and his family have been visiting for the weekend
and
today was a TRIPLE party...

a Valentine's Day-2nd Birthday-Baptism

My pretty girls all dressed up for the big party:


The first event of the day was my neice, Teagan's baptism:

Followed by her big sister, Tatum's 2nd birthday party:


My girls (and all the other kids) loved the Koi pond at the restaurant

Just about every other minute of the weekend was spent having
fun with their cousins!
Lexy, Maura, Audra and Brianna

 My girls loved being entertained {and spoiled} by their big girl cousins!  


Audra was in heaven being carried around all day and getting endless piggyback rides too!

Maura was sooo excited for cousin sleepovers:

We went to a bounce house place,
had a pizza party,
made the most delicious cake pops and chocolate covered strawberries,
and
enjoyed an unusual family tradition...
Feasting on tator-tot casserole for Valentine's day dinner!

Two years ago my brother and his family were here visiting on Valentine's Day weekend,
and as we were all gathered waiting for my niece Tatum to be born we made a dinner honoring her nick-name...Tator-tot casserole.
So it has become a strange little family tradition.
