Instagram Friday: Camping

Camping for Mother's Day is a tradition that my Mom and I & my best friend and her Mom have done for years when we were younger but then I had Sydney and my best friend moved far away and we haven't been camping together in about 4 years. Well this year my bestie flew home and we all went on a one night camping trip! It was Sydney's first time camping and she loved it. I think her favorite part was watching all the animals, i.e. bunnies, bird, and squirrels. The trip was a success except for the failed geocaching experience (epic fail) and the aggressive raccoon we encountered so I think I see another campout in our future.

Happy Friday Folks! Sorry I have been MIA for a few weeks, we have been BUSY over here. I'm hoping to get a lot of things posted over the next few days to catch up. 

Best thing about today...I just saw The Hunger Games a few hours ago and I was blown away by the performances. It deviated from the book quite a bit which I was kinda bummed about but it was still amazing! Go see it.

 Froggy fun at Target.

February Photo A Day

Today marked the end of the January Photo A Day Challenge that the lovely Chantelle over at Fat Mum Slim started and now she is moving on to a February Photo A Day challenge. I had a lot of fun doing the January one so I'm giving it another go and I'll be posting my pics over on Instagram. (I'm under sassysara if you wanna follow along.) 

Here is the breakdown for February: 

Here's a quick look at my January pics:

Family Pictures

As much as I love photography, I am usually the one behind the camera so we had never had family pictures taken since Sydney was born. I'm actually ashamed that we went this long without having them done! Well, a friend of mine was running a special for the upcoming holidays (we had them done before Christmas) so I jumped at the chance. These are just a few of my favorites from the shoot:

Syd's Birthday Party

Sydney's birthday isn't until tomorrow but we celebrated it this past Saturday with a few friends at a local park. This was exciting because she actually had little friends (mostly her classmates) come this year. She had a great time and they were all so adorable together. The party was very relaxed and easy....the park provided most of the entertainment and I brought a bubble machine (HUGE hit) and of course cupcakes. I can't believe my baby is 2!

The Birthday Girl!

Bubbles!

Loving the Bubble machine!
