Wordless Wednesday: Flowers & Polka Dots Are My Favorite

It's the little things.

Weekend Tales

I don't know about you guys, but we had a busy weekend at our household.  I am pretty sure that I am going to need a full week of snow days just to catch up on rest!  At this rate, that's about as far fetched as the Patriots intercepting a Super Bowl winning pass at the one yard line and taking it home for the win.  Oh wait, that happened!:)  Back to the snow...but, seriously.  I'm usually the optimistic type about these things!  Besides the 5,463 times I said it wasn't going to snow this year...  

My hubby doesn't usually like to celebrate his birthday.  In fact, he actually suggested we go to McDonalds this year...  I can't help but get excited about those certain little days that only come around once a year.  Whether it's Christmas, St. Patricks Day, or a birthday, it's fun to do something, anything special or out of the ordinary for the occasion.  It made me smile to come home Thursday evening to hear that he had invited some friends up to eat and play cards for the evening.  He deserved a little relaxing time.  He works so hard to take care of me and Cam and rarely takes time to enjoy the home life.  It was nice.

And to make the day sweeter, Cam wore my pajama pants around his head and a sock over one arm for the majority of the Saturday.  You'd do the same thing if you heard how many times the Mr complained about getting old.  Keep in mind I'm a year older than him...  I'd have to say the last straw had to be when he shared that we could actually be grandparents in as little as 12 years.  Isn't he a doll?  <eye roll>  I almost second guessed all the cleaning, cooking, and preparing of his chili bar feast- complete with these Snicker cupcakes.

I'm thankful for the craziness that is Cade Adams:)  Happy Birthday, Babe!

And because it's Monday, why not share this platter of toddler cuteness?  If you follow my instagram @cassidyadams you've already seen this little wad of football:)  We couldn't decide whether he looked Super Bowl ready or like a mini floating wizard of adorableness (is that a word?)

Happy Monday! 

P.S.  If your in the mood for Valentines, stay tuned!

Bear Stretches, Man Food, & Football

Last night, we went to bed at 8:30.  Yes, it has been that kind of week.  I rolled out of bed around 5:00 am and soon after, I heard a little knock on the bathroom door as I was getting ready.  "Mommmmmmy!"  I cracked the door open to find a mini Kevin McCallister baby standing at my door, wide-eyed and bushy tailed, ready for the day.  Keep in mind this little guy was supposed to have slept in with daddy...I had no idea what to do next.  Well, good news.  I thought of something.  It was pay day and this little boy loves Cars.  I grabbed my iPad and didn't hesitate paying 20 bucks for the download I'd been eyeing to add to his little collection.  We snuggled in bed, began the movie and he was set.  I thought anyway.  I finally finished getting ready and as soon as I seen he was cozied up again, snuck out the door.  A little while later, I text Cade to check on everything.  Here's the response...

Needless to say, I laughed and my heart melted all at the same time.  Perfect way to begin a Friday:)  Pretty sure this is one for the books!

Speaking of the end of another week...  How are we already nearing the last day of the first month of 2015?  The Mr.'s birthday and the Super Bowl are this weekend.  Anyone else kind of stuck as to what to serve?  We are having some family time during the Super Bowl, so I am in charge of the spread for our friends tomorrow night for Cade's birthday.  I am pretty sure I am leaning toward a chili or nacho bar but I can't decide.  I am certain I will make these potato skin chips with chipotle ranch dip!  Nom.  What's on your menu?

Here are some more fun ideas that I found at some of my favorite places on the www.  It's always nice when other people do the dirty work for you...on a silver platter-Super Bowl fun!

Happy weekend, friends!

May you eat lots of man food, sleep in, bear stretch, and stay up late watching the game!

Let's go Tom Brady...errrr Patriots?  Minus the cheating, please.
