Double Birthday Party

 

 

Whew! One thing about having kids with close together birthdays are big parties!

We doubled up again this year, but with a twist.

Kaebrie invited 3 friends over for a princess party, while Tiff invited 3 friends to go bowling. Then we all joined up together for pizza, cupcakes and ice cream.

Sam was held up in a mandatory meeting, so my neighbor took the boys over until Sam was able to get there (only 15 minutes late).

Here is the 4 year old princess.

And the 6 year old bowler!

The queen and her royal court!  :)

Bailey, Miley and Emily

They made wands as a craft and then marched down the street in a parade while waiting for the boys to return.

I sent Collin with the camera and he said he took a LOT. I guess my definition of a LOT is more than 8 pictures.  :)

Luke and Caleb, his new friends and neighbors.

 

Time to sing!

 

He didn't enjoy us singing to him as much as his sister did.

It took her 6 or 7 blows to get out those candles.

First try

Princess hair!!!!!!!

McKenna is a fellow Spiderman lover and Tiff was THRILLED with her Spiderman presents!

More princess stuff! Jewelry and ponies and more. She couldn't be happier.

Caleb and Legos!

Princess drawing paper with sparkle paints!

The light saber he has wanted for a long time.

Her vanity. She saw one in a magazine and it has been all she has wanted for weeks. I would never buy a brand new one, but for three dollars at the thrift store, I just couldn't pass it up. She LOVED it.

Tiff's big surprise, A trike! Check them out online, I had never seen them before 2 weeks ago when our neighbors showed us. VERY cool!

The princess in all her new stuff!

Is it Ok to be tired?

After driving 524 miles home yesterday, setting up this morning for our PWOC kickoff tomorrow, shopping for food and forgotten last minute items, getting Tiff to school, wrapping presents, cleaning the house, decorating the house and hosting a party, I am TIRED. Collin and Kaitlynn helped a LOT. All they did today was math, but they did a lot of serving. That counts!

One of my best friends had her baby today. I am so thrilled that our little ones will always share a special day!

Welcome to the world Tripp Aaron Hill! We can't wait to be back in Mississippi where we can watch you grow up!

Congratulations Will and Sarah and big sister Kellynn!!!!!

I think it is time to take a hot shower and crash!

What a wonderful, memorable day!
