This week is a big one for our family.<\/p>\n
Our little girl turns four (on Friday) AND The Hubby graduates (on Saturday.)<\/p>\n
So just to make things interesting I decided to have Gwyn’s birthday the same<\/em> day \u00a0The Hubby graduates.<\/p>\n Doesn’t that sound like a good idea?<\/p>\n Here was my thinking behind that:<\/p>\n There are people who want to be there to celebrate The Hubby and who also want to be at Gwyn’s 4th birthday, so rather than having two separate dates for traveling purposes, why not make it easier on everyone else and just have one busy Day O’ Fun?<\/p>\n No?<\/p>\n Sunday is Mother’s Day, so that was out as an option, too. So, both on Saturday it is!<\/p>\n So, this past month has been somewhat of a blur.<\/p>\n The day is going to look something like this:<\/p>\n Saturday-<\/p>\n Wake up early to finish baking and decorating for Gwyn’s birthday. She has requested a princess party, so it’s about to get girly up in heeya!<\/p>\n Gwyn’s birthday from 10-12<\/p>\n Drive straight to Pullman (a little over an hour) and go to my in-laws’ house to finish setting up (we drove down a couple \u00a0weeks ago and set some things up already!) and change to be at the university by 2:30.<\/p>\n Hubby graduates 3:00-5:00.<\/p>\n Graduation party for The Hubby at 6:00 at The Inlaws’.<\/p>\n Eat, drink, and be merry until ?<\/p>\n Sunday- Mother’s Day- Brunch at The Inlaws’ and slowly peeling myself off whatever floor I end up on. Not from being passed out drunk, just passed out tired. \u00a0Or maybe…..<\/p>\n Nah, that sounds horrible.<\/p>\n Whew! Are you tired yet?<\/p>\n I know I am!<\/p>\n Therefore, this week will primarily be baking and last-minute prep. I will be sharing some progression photos on Instagram<\/a> if you’d like to follow along!<\/p>\n Here are a few from the last week.<\/p>\n
