Becca's 30th birthday!

Sean's sister-in-law, Becca, celebrated her 30th birthday a couple weeks ago! Jenna and I wanted to throw her a surprise birthday party, but since she is 6 months pregnant we didn't want to cause any stress or anything, so we did a "surprise" birthday party. She knew we were having a party, but she had NO idea how "all-out" we went! She loves owls, so that was our theme!

Owl cucumber sandwiches: made with Dave's bread from Costco, garden herb cream cheese and cucumbers. We bought a penguin cookie cutter and cut out the ears on top.

Mozzarella and tomatoes with italian dressing.
We cut the ears into the cheese.

The masterminds!


Birthday girl!

Oh, I made a owl-shaped cake too but it stuck to the pan and didn't turn out so pretty. 

We had such a fun time eating good food (all of our favorites!) and spending time together as family. Eve was crazy, as always, and was very entertaining. Mason loves watching her. Here are some pictures from the day!

(I should mention Eve tried to get in the picture. She is sitting next to Grandpa.)

Mason's favorite position: standing. Where did my baby go??



Becca snapped these two pictures earlier in the day. Mason could watch Eve play all day long. In fact, when they are over, he often misses nap time because he is fascinated by her.

I hope you had a wonderful birthday Becca! We sure had a good time!

(P.S. Special thanks to Pinterest and their secret boards option for helping us plan the party.)
