Redneck Yacht club

We have been enjoying the beautiful spring weather here. Its put a little damper on Wayne's fishing (no more ice). A couple of weeks ago he took us for a little fourwheeler/boat ride to the pond behind Mom and Dad's house. It was really fun, Anna was a little worried that we would sink, Megan was worried about tipping over, and David just wanted to get right in! It was fun riding around and chasing some ducks/geese. We are pretty redneck huh?

 

 

I love having girls

Isn't it fun to be a girl? I sure love having my sweet little girls to do all the fun girl stuff together! We have so much fun painting fingernails, having pajama parties, fixing hair, creating cute accessories and outfits, shopping, eating chocolate... watch out when we are all grown up. Wayne says he knows its going to be really expensive when they hit teenagerhood. Anna was so cute this morning. As we were eating breakfast she says, "Mom I know who gets to be the first kid in our family to be a teenager, Me!" I thought, Oh no she already wants to be a teenager to do grown up things, she's only 6! But then she sweetly says, "So I can be a babysitter when I'm a teenager". Whew! I'm glad that's what she's excited about that will be really nice. I don't want them to grow up any faster, it's fun to dress them up while they'll still let me. The Easter bunny brought them these cute Hats, so we had to make matching flowers to go with our yard sale treasure dresses.

 

 

Anna's Bday

Anna has been so excited for her birthday. She has had her party planned for about a month, and all week she said we needed to start "setting up" for it. On Tuesday she got a cool birthday crown at Kindergarten and shared treats with all of her friends at school. She was pretty excited about her Hannah Montanah birthday balloons, and had Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Adam come over to eat Orange Rolls and open presents. Then on Friday she had a couple of her cousins over for her Fancy Nancy Party. It was a lot of fun. On Saturday she said, "Mom that was so much fun for my Birthday, Thank you." What a sweet heart. She is such a good girl, we love her so much.

Fancy Nancy Party

We started out our party with a "fancy dinner": Fancy sandwiches, deviled eggs, pink punch, fruit dipped in chocolate and caramel, all of Anna's favorites. She was thrilled to come home from school to crepe paper streamers hung from the ceiling and had fun setting the table with fancy plates and napkins.

 

Isn't this cake amazing?! I love it, my good friend Terra Rich made it for me. Check out her work at: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Roosevelt-UT/Custom-Cake-Creations/140152983069?ref=ts
The girls were pretty impressed by it. Is that really cake on the doll? And Can we really eat those flowers? Too cute to eat huh?

 

Anna's cousins Dakota and Courtney brought her some fun gifts. They had such a good time playing together.

 

We had a full night!: Treasure Hunt, makeup and fingernails, dressing up Fancy and having a fashion show, watching Princess movies and eating popcorn.

 

David

David is getting so big! He is also getting into trouble more. He has been found sitting in this cupbaoard under my sink, yes with the garbage can, and soaps. We have to really listen for sounds like: the cupboard door opening, the toliet lid, etc.

 

One of his favorite places to hang out is by a window, watching the cows, horses and dog. He really loves animals and being outside.

 

David wants to be just like his sisters, he has started 'coloring' and he loves sitting on a lap with a book. He'll see a book and bring it to you and start climbing or sitting down on your lap. So fun!

 

 

What a fun boy! He gives great kisses and hugs.

Anna

Anna loves creating and building. The other day when I was sewing she begged to sew her own creation. I guess she's starting out young. She is learning and changing so much all the time. I can't believe how much she is reading already in Kindergarten, its wonderful! She is also starting to grow up a little. We are working on doing more chores, earning money, being fair and comprimising. She loves playing with David, and is a good helper.

 

 

 

 

Megan still loves playing dress up.

 

What a CUTE boy! David loves playing with cars, and trucks. He gets really excited when his sisters play with him and drive the cars back and forth in the kitchen. He also loves balls, cookies, and being outside.

 

So the latest 'game' is setting up stuffed animals for pictures. They are pretty creative in making a 'backdrop'.
