the unsung holidays.

Untitled-16
My friend Chrissy has a strong affection for holidays with low expectations. Every year, she celebrates Jack's 1/2 birthday by making him half a cake, and since he was born a day before Maggie, we get to celebrate too! I love that Chrissy does this because it's something that would never have occured to me otherwise. But it's such a sweet tradition! (You can see last year's post here. I can't believe how big Jack and Maggie are getting!) Yesterday, Jack and Chrissy came by to drop off Maggie's half of their cake, and I grabbed a few quick photos of the kids playing with bubbles.

Happy 1/2 Birthday Maggie girl! You are such a precious daughter, helpful big-sister and sweet friend. I love having an excuse to celebrate you!

I love this next photo. Jack looks like he's thanking all his fans for coming out to watch the bubble show. Also, can you see Caleb in the background?!

And I meant to post these last two photos yesterday. In the spirit of the "quieter" holidays, Happy (belated) Earth Day!
