Say Goodnight...

The girls were sad to see the jumpy house go! It was lots of fun while it lasted though!

Friends...

Flip Flops Forever... Peyton's first friend party was a success! She had a blast!
Decorating our flippies and eating popcorn.

Flip Flop cupcakes!

Gigantic bouncey house!

Hawaii...

No we're not going! But I find it very funny that Bella has been giving herself Hawaiian names since we were in Whistler. Daily she'll ask, "What's your name?" It took me and Peyton a while to catch on, because we would answer with, "Mommy" or "Peyton". Bella would say, "No, What's your name Peyton?" Bella's name is often Hena. Sometimes Hena Hanna Howla.

No pictures today - I'm exhausted after Peyton's first friend party this afternoon. It went great! She had a wonderful time and was a good friend to all the girls! Tomorrow we have all the cousins (oh, and aunts, unlces, grandmas & grandpas)! Can't wait!!!!

Happy Birthday Peyton!!!

Peyton had a great birthday! She woke up to a chocolate donut complete with candles!
Then we had some park time before meeting daddy at her favorite restaurant for lunch.

After dinner we hit the ice cream. I allowed her to have the medium size instead of the kiddie size - she was thrilled!

Playing in the fountain and annoying the very green Fairhaven type family sitting at the cafe behind them. The mom didn't want her kids playing in the fountain because it was wasteful... I let the girls play a little extra just to annoy her - even I had a great day!

One Up on Marty...

I know Wes and Tracy are far more crafty/clever than Chris and I are. However, Chris found these great little citronella candles to hang from our umbrella. I made little wire hangers for them and wa-la! They are a great addition to our beautiful trio on the table!
Sad thing is - it's only 9:15 and it's dark!

Pool Time...

Mid-air on her way in for a great cannon ball!
Peyton just hitting the water and Olivia just getting out. They had such a great time swimming together. Unfortunately Ali had to sit out much of the swimming activities, but was a great sport. Peyton and Olivia had jump competitions trying to outdo eachother with their fancy legwork and spins! I didn't get that many pictures because I was in the pool too trying to stay cool.

Peyton and Bella jumping together.

Peyton has made such great progress swimming! 5 days in a pool made a huge difference. She can swim the length of the pool on her own, tread water or roll to her back when needed, and most importantly do some pretty amazing jumps and then swim to the side! Bella has started swimming under water like a fish. The biggest problem is she thinks she can do it all on her own! Typical Bella fashion! They both have done great and are continuing in the lake.

Activities...

The girls each got to choose 2 activities. One from Mom & Dad and one from Grammy Sue & Daddy Bob. Peyton knew immediately what she wanted to do. The big bungee jumper and a horse ride.
Bella finally settled on the bouncy castle for both!

Love the 'do!

Peyton and Ali went together this year on full size horses! This was most exciting! Peyton's horse was named Scrambles and Ali's was named Max.

Thank you Grammy Sue and Daddy Bob for such a fun trip!!!
