Chef Rhaegan

Rhaegan got a play kitchen for her birthday from her Grandma and Papa Cupps. Along this the kitchen came this adorable chefs hat and apron. Rhaegan is quit the little cook and loves to wear the apron (not so much the hat) every time she cooks me something. Her neighborhood friends love the kitchen as well and are over here all the time helping her prepare and serve delicious, plastic meals.

Rhaegan is 2!!!

Rhaegan is officially two years old. Where has the time gone? We had her party last night which turned out to be a lot of fun. As you can see from the pictures below the party had a penguin theme to it. Rhaegan loves penguins so I thought why not? She picked out the plates and cups and when she saw the penguin balloon she about fell over with excitment. Hopefully this next year goes a little bit slower. She is growing up too fast.

These are the penguin cupcakes I made for the party

Rhaegan was so excited about all of her presents

She got a little bit bashful when everyone was singing to her. It was adorable.

A penguin party wouldn't be complete without a penguin gift

Viva Las Vegas!

Shae, Rhaegan and I got to go to Las Vegas this past week with our friends Mike and Ashly and their two kids Maddox and Conner. Ashly's family lives their so we stayed with them and got to enjoy their company. Thursday night we went down to the "strip" which was a first for Shae. We wanted to eat at the "ESPN Zone" but when we got there we realized that there was a huge game on so the wait was 5 pages long and you had to pay a $10 an hour fee once you got in. Needless to say we of course found some place else to eat. It actually turned out for the best because we took the kids to the Rainforest Cafe (in the MGM Grand) which was so much fun for them. It was like eating in an actual rainforest. Everywhere you looked there were animals or waterfalls and every 15 minutes or so it would thunder and a little mock rain storm would pass over us. It was a really fun experience. We also got to participate in the annual Las Vegas Santa Run which benefits children with disabilities. Ashly and I wanted to run the 5k but since we had our husbands and kids with us we decided to do the "Santa Stroll" which was a 1 mile walk. They wanted to make it into the Guiness Book of World Records for the most "Santas"walking a 1 mile or running a 5k race. We all had to dress up like Santa (including the kids). It was a riot. Rhaegan actually wore her beard as you can see from the picture below. It was a great trip filled with a lot of fun.
