Splish-Splash 6th Birthday Party Bash

This year was Kathryn's first year to have a "school friend" birthday - and we went all out and invited all the girls in her class as well as the neighborhood friends.  What a blast!  Since we were looking at a HOT week, we made it a water theme.  We had a froggies on the pond cake, water relays, water balloon fights, snacks, ice cream, presents, and pizza.  It was a jammed packed afternoon but I think everyone had fun and the time flew by.  It was a wonderful afternoon with fabulous girls! 

Water sponge relay - which team can fill up their bucket to the blue line first.

Cheering on their teammates!

My baby - um, I mean, birthday girl!

Getting silly with the frosting - good things we were outside. . . with a hose:-)

Presents!

"Take me out to the baaaalllll game!"

Mother's Day

Mother's Day Memories:

-a wonderful, worship service

-sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee while my wonderful husband and daughter created a gourmet meal

-watching a tear-jerking, touching video tribute by my oldest (who wrote a song and created a video montage for me).

-getting a special promise from my son that he would be on his best behavior and not "harass his sisters"!

-a heart-shaped card from Kathryn done all on her own.

-an amazing concert/worship service by the Bel Canto girls' choir from Azusa Pacific.

-hosting two special ladies from the choir who gushed over my kiddos and made our night special.

Muffins, Makeovers, Moms, and May

This is always one of my favorite days of the Kindergarten year!  Kathryn invited me to have a special pampering day in KB land.  I came "fresh-faced" and hungry.  We munched on muffins and fruit and then the real fun began.  Kat painted my nails and applied my make-up.  (And she gave a pretty mean foot massage too!)  It was a wonderful, special morning with my little girl.
