The husband's long weekend birthday

The husband's birthday always seems to be surrounded by snow, colder weather and lots of pink or red.  It also just happens to be Hudson's due date.  Amazing how things work.  While I had wanted to sneak him off to Chicago or Louisville for the night, neither of our schedules allowed it.  We made the best of his birthday, softly celebrating a couple different times and of course diving into Mexican food as well as another favorite dish.
Harper loves everything parties. Everything.  She was so incredibly excited to pick out his cake and it screams both of their names.

Sweet Hailey Elsa headed to school.  I told her to grab a beanie and she came with this.  She would wear it every day if possible.

We snuck off to Costo just before the weekend began looking for that perfect last minute gift.  Harper dressed for the occasion.

Monkey see monkey do.

See Harper has been so sleepy lately.  She fell asleep on my feet after dinner one night.
Always competing.
Friday of the Birthday weekend, Hailey headed to school.  They are no longer allowed to have Valentine's Day parties.
Part of the husband's birthday gift.  Lots of gift cards were in the Frozen wrapping.  He needed shoes and jeans so we opted to let him pick them out since he prefers that.  Silly thing still has tags on stuff from 6 years ago so we would rather him buy stuff he will wear.
We did a little house shopping, Mexican food eating and tried out a new restaurant called The District Tap.   We were glad we tried it, turned out great.
Look how cute they were on the husband's birthday a few years ago.

Hoping Daddy has a Willie nice birthday.

The kids and I drove 2 hours in a snow storm just to get Johnny Carino's Spicy Shrimp and Chicken.  This is one of the husband's very favorite meals.  It had been years since we dined at a  JC, probably since the one in Texarkana closed.  While we weren't planning all the really bad weather, the kids did great.  While picking up the food, we were finally able to see the second Jagger's location.  It has fantastic visual for those traveling on the roads around it.
Yum.
Gross.  Two times through the car wash and it was still dirty.
We ran into an old school McDonald's tree while getting milks.  HG was just blown away when I showed her all the old characters.

Apparently she had to potty.

Pretty princess.

He can't wait for it to warm up and run outside.
