Happy 6th Birthday, Taylor!!!

Taylor had "the best birthday ever" yesterday!!  We got off to a rough start when she woke up at 3 a.m. vomiting all over her bed.  After getting cleaned up she slept the rest of the night and woke up acting pretty normal.  She was excited to open presents from us and the boys.
 The Lego beach house she has been wanting!
 She had to pose with her presents!
 We had a skating party planned for 1:00 that afternoon...we weren't sure what to do since she got sick, but she seemed fine so we went ahead and had it.  I'm glad we did because she felt fine and had a blast!
 In line to do the limbo
 Benny skated a little bit!
 Having fun!!!
We had snacks, cake, and ice cream at the skating rink.
 Taylor and her friend, Molly.
 Taylor and her friend from school, Chloe.
 Skating with friends!

 After the party, Grandma and Grandpa had presents for her to open!
A microphone and amp....has been WELL loved by all three kids!  She also got a "real tent" for backyard camping which we put up in the basement for a "camp out" last night.
 After dinner at Bob Evans, we finished the day with DQ ice cream cake!
I can't believe our girl is 6!  She is becoming so smart and independent.  She is doing great at school and really picking up on learning to read and write.  She still loves playing anything pretend, Legos, games, and playing outside.  She is finishing her first season of basketball and will be starting swim lessons this week too!  Happy 6th birthday, Taylor!!!!

Can you see Drew in this picture???


I helped with Taylor's Valentine's Day party at school last Friday.  Here's Taylor showing off her painting she did.
The whole class!
She is VERY excited to be the "Star Student" this week.  She got to bring Mr. Fox home for the weekend and he went everywhere with us, including Grandpa's Dairy Queen!
