Charley's Skating Birthday Party

By -
Charley's 6th Birthday crept up on us quickly this year. She wanted to have her birthday party at Crystal Palace and invite all of her friends to go roller skating with her.


Since this girl loves all things unicorn, we grabbed a few unicorn decorations and some cupcakes and headed to the skating rink.


The girls had so much fun skating with their friends. I was pretty impressed with how well they did skating all over the place on their own.




Poppa and Gran even got out there and went around the rink a few times. Everybody was having a blast.


Char had her favorite people there, and Perry loved watching her sisters pass her by on the sidelines.



Soon it was time for pizza and cake. We all sang Happy Birthday, and Char made her wish.




Perry was all about the cupcakes and got a little crazy with hers.


The girls skated some more and Grandma Sunshine and Papa Craig went out to do the chicken dance and the hokey pokey with them.









Perry played with Acelyn, and these girls really got the party started with balloons and party horns.


Gracie helped Paxton race a car in the arcade area.


Charley had so much fun! I can't believe this girl is six years old. I think she'll always be three in my eyes. She's the funnest, silliest little girl, and we love her so, so much!


Thank you to everyone that came to celebrate with us and shower this girl in the girliest gifts of purses, make-up, and nail polish. She opened a make-up mirror with some fancy eye shadow and Grace ran upstairs in her room, because she was so upset. Char was the best and let Gracie come in her room to share and do their make-up together. She's such a sweet sister and loves when she gets to take care of Grace or Perry. We love your spunk and your competitive spirit, but most of all we love your heart, Char Char.


Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute

Mommy-Daughter Night

Thursday night, Isaac went to play poker with some of Sunstate's biggest customers (and soon to be customers). Since he left around 4:30 and didn't come home until well after Grace and I were asleep, we got to have a whole mommy-daughter night! I get to spend every night with her, but having quality time with just the two of us is pretty rare. This means that nights alone with mom get to be extra special treats for both of us! When Daddy left, Grace asked "ah da da?" about one hundred times. Once she got over the fact that he was gone, we had a lot of fun. We started the night out watching Wall-E and building castles out of Mega Blocks. Then, Grace helped me unload the dishwasher while our dinner finished cooking: She's the best helper ever! We had pasta, corn, garlic bread, and cut up Beddar Cheddar brats for dinner; some of Grace's favorite things: After that it was bath time.  Once she got all clean, we played with her Dora foam soap. Grace really

Junior Ranger Day

Saturday was Junior Ranger Day at the Water Safety Center at Lake Mead.   Isaac's brother, Zacarias, was working and invited us to come down and check it out.   We're always up for anything that the girls might have fun at, so we got ready and headed down to the lake. It was right next to where my parents dock their boat, so it was pretty easy to find.   When we first got there, Grace was a little shy and skeptical about everything. It took her a while to warm up.   We found Uncle Zac by the fire truck and Grace hesitantly climbed inside with him:     She was a little afraid until I took her to the front of the trucks and showed her the lights. Then she thought it was "sooo cool!"       Charley was pretty curious and kept wanting to check everything out:       Grace saw Uncle's helmet and thought that was pretty neat. Then Daddy checked it out, too:       Since Charley was so curious, Daddy gave her a b
