Our Little Cupcake!

The theme for Trigger's party was CUPCAKES!
Today I'm just going to upload pictures of the decorations because I don't have time to upload all the pics from the party. Thanks to my sister who did an excellent job taking pictures for me so I could enjoy the party. Thanks, Deanna!
One of the things I made was this picture banner. It had one picture from each month of his first year...WOW...he has grown so much in one year...from 4lbs 5oz to 20lbs 7oz.!!!

Next, I made a CUPCAKE "Trigger" banner and a CUPCAKE "Happy Birthday" banner.

And then my brilliant idea a day or two before the party...tags on cups for people to write names....why use a sharpie? this is ALOT cuter!!!!!! it did take forever though.

I made 2 CUPCAKE holders to match the tourquise and lime green colors. Do you see that little hand? He's always around!!! That little boy's always got to be right in the middle of what his momma's doing!

This CUPCAKE table runner was sooo easy to make and made the table look really cute!

These are the party favors: a rolling pin, playdough, and a CUPCAKE cookie cutter...so they can "make" CUPCAKES.

Last, THE CUPCAKES! I made these and they actually looked alot better at the party...this is the leftovers two days later and the fondant was starting to melt on top. And, while trying to take the pictures, Trigger kept sneaking over and getting a bite of icing! He knows what's good! :)

Ok...so i know that's pretty pathetic that I just did a post on decorations, but I'm tired. AND, my body is aching...for some stupid reason I decided to move ALL of my furniture around in my classroom...about 5 huge bookcases filled with blocks, books, and other fun stuff...and tables, chairs, desks, dramatic play furniture, etc. I'm exhausted and at the moment having a very difficult time going from spending 12 hours a day with Trigger to 2.5 hours...NOT FUN!!!!!! sooo...i'm going to take some tylenol, iron my clothes for tomorrow (maybe?!), and take a hot bath...all before ten because ive got to get some sleep!!! or i'm going to loose it..haha! SERIOUSLY!

The Woodards

My name is Garson Woodard. I'm a wife to Matt. He is the most incredible husband a girl could ask for. We met in Kindergarten at Cedar Creek (the school we attended for 13 years). Matt and I started dating our Jr. year in high school and dated for 6 years. We got married on June 26, 2004. I am so thankful that God brought us together! I am a mother to Trigger, Campbell, and Larkin. We worked hard to have all of them. After 2 miscarriages, two years after trying to get pregnant, a 2 week hospital stay, and a short (didn't seem short at the time) NICU stay, we brought home our first precious miracle: Trigger! He was born on July 29, 2008. Trigger's completely spoiled rotten! He is full of personality and definitely shows some of the same tenacity that his namesake had!

With our second child, Campbell, we made it to 38 weeks. He was born on June 3, 2010. He still had to stay in the NICU for 5 days for breathing issues. Campbell is absolutely precious..shy but such a little clown. I can't wait to watch our two boys which are 22 months apart) grow up together. I know they are going to fight constantly but be BEST of friends at the same time!

I just thought my boys were our miracles...and they are...but, at the end of May 2011, Matt and I found out that we were expecting the biggest surprise of our life. We were having baby #3 after being told we could never get pregnant on our own. AND, to add to the excitement, we were having a GIRL. After dealing with my medical issues, a two vessel cord, and IUGR, Larkin was born on January 6, 2012. She came here ruling the roost and I am sure that is not going to change anytime soon.

After what seemed like forever thinking that I would not have any children, God has blessed me with three beautiful babies all within 3.5 years.

After having Campbell, Matt and I decided I would become a stay-at-home mom. In alot of ways it is more difficult than teaching because I am with OUR children all day...and OUR children don't seem to listen like my students would. HOW DOES THAT WORK? Haha! Seriously though, it is the BEST job in the world and I feel very blessed to be able to be home to witness each and every minute of our boys' lives!

I started this blog when we found out we were pregnant with Trigger and have continued to document our crazy lives with a toddler and a baby since I don't have time to scrapbook anymore. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you visit again!
