Annie turns 6!

I can't believe that Annie turned 6 last week! She is growing up so fast. I always tell her that she will always be my first baby and I love watching her grow and learn. She is such a good big sister. She plays so well with Macey and Olivia and helps take care of them. It is very sweet. She is learning so much in school and is such a happy kid! Her teacher told us at parent teacher conferences that she is a mother hen to other kids in class and always wants to help them. I am so blessed to have Annie in our family and I am so grateful that she is such a sweet daughter.

For her birthday we had an "Under the Sea" party. It was really fun!  All the little girls we had over made sand castles out of sugar cubes, played pin the tail on the mermaid, and enjoyed under the sea cupcakes! It was a big hit and fun too!

Birthday morning started the same way it always does around here..... birthday cereal of her choice :) and of course the birthday hat!

We had a birthday dinner at Dickie Joe's (she loves that they have pb&j sandwiches) with Papa and Heather. They got her a Brave doll and she loved it!

I always make the girls their own personal little cake. It turned out cute!

Here are the cute cupcakes

All the girls digging into the goodies!

Halloween

Halloween was a big hit around here this year! We squeezed in a lot of fun pre-Halloween activities and enjoyed Halloween night! We carved pumpkins, made sugar cookies, went to visit Rex at work and show all the secretaries the girls costumes and went tick or treating! We had a blast and the costumes turned out so good!

Carving pumpkins for Family home evening. The girls did actually dig out some of the guts.... we did the rest :)

This is what Olivia did while we carved pumpkins :)

All done! Rex carved a more difficult pumpkin, but for some reason it didn't make it in the picture. Now it is all mushy and in the trash!

Making sugar cookies, like we do every year!

Annie debating if she should eat the frosting or not

 

This is what Olivia did while we frosted cookies, made fishy faces in the tub, cute!

We helped at Annie's class party and Macey was so excited to sit with Annie at her table

My little super heros!!

The girls really liked their costumes, mostly because they got to wear tutus!

Look at the baby jump!!
