Happy 4th Birthday Kyla Wyla Shaye!

Kyla's Birthday Party

Kyla and Maelie before church today - Kyla is wearing her new birthday dress from Grandma & Grandpa, carrying her dinosaur from Brooke and fam, and wearing her kitty in her hair from Anna and Emma. My Mom made those crayon bags for Christmas!

Yesterday we had a family birthday party for Kyla - she wanted a dinosaur party, no surprse there! Both Maelie and Kyla really had fun helping me make the cake. It was so windy that we weren't able to light the candles, but Kyla still pretended to blow!

Pinata fun! Kyla's favorite dinosaur is a T-Rex and she wanted everything to be a red T-Rex, and what do ya know, the only dinosaur pinata at Party City was a red T-Rex! We went through all the kids - Kyla, Zac, Jaxon, Emma, Karsyn, Anna, Kailin, Maelie, Brooke, and Jakob, and then Kyla again. It was hard to break. It finall started breaking when I helped Kyla and then some more help from Jakob... and all the kids had fun getting candy. For her party Kyla wanted cake and candy, that's what she said when I would ask her what she wanted to do. So there's the candy!

And she loved all her presents. I think kids birthdays are more fun than your own. It's fun to see how excited they are! Thank you so much for coming and for the presents all! And then the kids had fun playing!

I love you Shannon and Laurice! =)

Star * 100 * Ballerinas

Kyla is the Star Student this week at Preschool. She had fun making her poster which she shared with her class yesterday. Today she brought in her favorite book and tomorrow she is so excited to bring her T-Rex in and show her class. Since I was taking pix of Kyla with her poster, Maelie wanted a pic of her with her homework, her 100 chart. Tomorrow is her 100th day of school with lots of fun activities going on. I get to go in and volunteer in her class, it's been a while, so I am excited. Yesterday the girls started a Fairy Princess Ballerinas class through the city that goes for 6 weeks. They really enjoyed it!

the good life

Maelie set the table and gave Jaxon the giant fork!!

Grandma Rogers made the kids new PJ's, adorable eh? And in case you're wondering because we aren't football fans, those balloons were free at Fry's last night :)

Jaxon's pj's are my fave, I think he looks so cute in these bright orange ones! He was sitting there, looking at all the cars with a big smile on his face :)

This is Maelie and her prince Ty. And yes, that's really what she calls him. They were playing Sleeping Beauty. :)

Maelie can read so well! I thought this was cute, Maelie reading to Kyla.
