Noah's bowling birthday party

April 3, 2016
Today we wore our post Easter dresses.  Mom thought she would get pictures of us in them before we changed to go to Noah's birthday party!  So angelic in all white!
My post Easter dress had a bit more color.  I was excited to get to wear a blue and green twirl dress!
Today was Noah's (from my pre-k) classes 6th birthday.  They had a birthday party for him at the bowling alley.  I was excited to get to go bowling.  It was something new to try!
They had a cool contraption to help me get my ball down the alley and knock down those pins.
Daddy showed me how to bowl.  It was nice to have him there to teach us how to bowl!
I was excited to get to bowl in the same lane as Navaeh!
There goes my ball!  I hope it hits some pins.  It was nice that they had the bumpers in the gutter!  I made the bowling go a lot better.
Is it going to knock them down?
Hallie and I had a great time hanging out while we waited for our turn.
Us girls had a fantastic time bowling together.
Bowling is so much fun!
Hanging out with my dad while I wait for my turn!
My ball was usually pretty slow going down, but it would still knock over the pins. 
 
Lucky thing for the bumpers.
I wanted to try rolling the ball down the lane by myself.
All lined up and ready to send it down.
There is goes.
It is looking good!
A little happy dance once it knocked over some pins.
Hallie, Kennedy, and I in front of our lane.
Thought I would lay down and rest on the chairs while I waited for my turn.
Kenzie and I had a great time hanging out together at the bowling alley!
I finished my game!  It was so much fun.  We will have to try bowling again sometime!
After we bowled it was time for cake!  Here is the group of us that were at the party!
I sure do love cake!  It brings a smile to my face!
I thought I would join the birthday boy and eat some cake with him!
Can't get enough of this cake!
Happy Birthday Noah!  It has been so fun to be in preschool together for the last couple of years!

Happy 3rd Birthday Gus!

 April 2, 2016 
 I am excited to be celebrating Gus' birthday! We headed to his house this evening for his third birthday party. 
 Abby always make such yummy food!  We sure enjoyed ours. 
 I gobbled all mine up and am waiting for my friends to finish.
 Gus had a soccer themed birthday.  We each got to choose a soccer beach ball and a water squirter for a game.  Can you tell that I love the color purple. 
 Here is the birthday boy all ready to play the game.
 We are all lined up and waiting for instructions on how to play the game! 
 Tilly and Shelley had a great time hanging out and watching the game! 
 The goal of the game was to use your water squirter full of water and push the ball with the water into the goal! 
 It took some strategy to get it the ball to move.
 Gus, Sienna, and I had a great time pushing those balls with water. 
 I am making it!  I am going to score a goal! 
 Gus had a fun soccer ball cake!  We sang happy birthday to him and watched him blow out his candles.   
 The black frosting was a big hit.  I thought it was the greatest thing that it turned my whole mouth black! 
 I was kind of disappointed that it didn't stay black longer, but I showed everybody while it was black. 
 Collin had green frosting which turned his mouth green.
 Check out my black tongue. 
 There was a soccer pinata that we got to take some swings at.  
 It is a lot harder to hit with blind folds on.
 Gus and I had a great time sitting on his front porch and watching the outside world.  There is something about these pictures that are so sweet and reminiscent of a time gone past.

 It was so fun to get to help Gus celebrate is birthday!  Happy Birthday Gus!

Spring Break!

March 28, 2016
 It is spring break week this week.  We stayed home, but that didn't stop us from having fun!  We had a great week hanging out with friends.  This morning we helped mom make some snacks for our friends that we had over.
 I thought it would be fun to make silly faces for the camera.
 I on the other hand smiled for the camera.
 I am so excited to have some friends come over!

 This morning we are waiting by the window for Brooke and Ella to come over!
 This should be a fun and
crazy day!
  We had a nice picnic lunch outside while Brooke and Ella were here.
Look a double swinging!  We had a lot of fun playing with Brooke and Ella!

Mom thought we should get out one time this week and go somewhere.  It was a nice sunny day, so, the perfect place to go was the lake.  We haven't been out to the lake yet this year, so, we were pretty excited to go!  It was even better because Allison and her mom joined us out there!
I had a great time with my buckets and the sand!
The lake brings a smile to my face even if I don't get to swim in it!
We were able to get our feet wet and fill up our buckets with water.
It was great to get to play with Allison!  We had fun filling the buckets together.
Getting those toes wet.
Mom brought out bubble wands and we had a great time blowing bubbles.
A fun game of catch.
I squatted down and got my backside wet, so, I wanted something to help keep me dry.
It wouldn't be a trip to the lake with out a picnic lunch!
Back to play in the sand and water.
I am going to fill that bucket up one shovel at a time.
So much joy the lake brings me.
They have some big trenches that people have created by running water down them.  We thought we would go and check them out.
Another sweet McKenzie and Allison picture!
The trenches were quite deep.
We had fun running down them!  It was a fantastic morning at the lake!  We had a fun spring break with friends!
