Leave 3 crazy girls unattended with a bunch of different size balloons and this is what you get...Enough said!

Love their faces!!

Derby Girls

Miss Lexi Lou has been begging me for some time to take her to the roller skating rink.  She wears her roller blades pretty much all day long when she is home and skates all over the house.  Finally we had a free day to take her and her cousin Trista and Aunt Steph and Grandma Jackie were able to come as well.  Let me tell you, roller skating is much harder than I remember!  It was embarrassing that my 7 year old could skate better than me!  I guess my years skating at Skate Town were quite some time ago, and I am quite a bit older!  :)  We had a great time though, even though Avery would not even try to skate!  My little chicken!  Luckily, Grandma Jack was there with her and the watched everyone skate and played some air hockey.  After skating we got some fro yo and went shopping.  Another great day!

More BDay Festivities

Of course around this house, we celebrate bdays for more than one day!  On Avery's actual birthday we had cake for breakfast, got dressed up and went shopping, ate dinner at Olive Garden and had a wonderful day celebrating our baby girl!

Happy 5th Birthday my Silly Sally!

The big 5!

My little baby turned 5!  January 29th is her actual birthday, but her party was a few days earlier.  Miss Avery decided she wanted to have her bday party at the Bounz House.  She invited all of her school friends and some of her dance friends, and of course her cousins and neighbors.  She really had a great time and got a ton of wonderful gifts.  She loved being the center of attention at her Dora themed 5th Bday party.  I really cannot believe that my baby is already 5 years old!  It seems like just yesterday she was born.  I know that sounds cliche, but really, it's amazing how fast your kids grow up.  It has been a lot of fun though watching her grow and develop a sassy personality.  She absolutely loves music and dancing and playing with her sister.  She is a very smart, loveable, and picky girl who hates to wear shoes and loves to wear dresses.  We are so happy that we have little Miss Ree to make our family complete!  Happy 5 Miss Avery Marie!

After her party, we went and had some dinner at Seranos.  They sang really loud to her and made her wear the sombrero.  Which, as you can tell, she was not extremely fond of.  I don't think I have laughed so hard in a very long time.  Her face was priceless!

Big sister Lexi Lou however, was quite fond of the sombrero! :)

Valentines

My pretty girls all ready for Valentines Day.  The cutest Valentines you could ever ask for!

Sundogs!!

This past weekend when we were in Prescott Valley, Stephanie managed to get some free tickets to the Sundogs game, an amateur hockey league team.  Having never been to a hockey game, I had no idea what to expect!  We all LOVED it!  The girls were very into watching the game.  We had seats right on the ice so we got to see a lot of action!  The girls also loved seeing the mascot Bernie up close and personal!  Hopefully we can go to many more hockey games because it was a really great time.

And the best part was that they won at the last minute!  :)

Toothless

Little Lexi Lou who happens to be a tad behind on losing teeth, finally lost a top tooth.  She lost it on January 9th.  Cody and I are finding it very hard to keep a straight face when talking to her because she looks so silly with her top tooth missing!  We have now resorted to calling her Billy Bob.  She loves having a missing tooth and shows everbody she can!  Can't wait till she loses the other top one and has a huge gap in the front!  :)
