5 Years old!

Maddie and Bella turned five on July 18th. They are getting so big. They were so excited about their Luau birthday party. We had been talking about it for months! It was great timing because my sister Sarah and nephew Andrew came out to visit us the day before their birthday. We were so excited to have them here to be with us and help us with the party too!

 

Nathan was feeling left out and wanted it to also be his birthday, so the girls were good enough to share their day with him and let him have his own little cake too.
 

 

Here I am trying to show some of the girls a hula dance.
 

Playing pass the coconut and getting treats out.
 
 

 
 

We played water balloon toss- which turned into throw the water balloons at Scott, but they loved it. We did the sprinkler and slip n slide. It was nearly 100 degrees and so humid, so it was a good day for water games.
 
 
 
 

We really loved having Sarah and Andrew here. Nathan was in heaven having a boy around who would play with him. He and Andrew were pals. We had such a fun week with them. We went to the Zoo and about died in the heat, went swimming, went out to eat, saw the new Winnie the Pooh movie, and even hit Chuck e cheese. It was a party! I loved having Sarah here to chat with and keep me company while Scott was on the night shift. She took care of Nora all week to and it was wonderful to have the extra hands! I'm grateful for sisters and wonderful family!
