Tylar's Birthday - 7!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY TYLAR!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe by little 6 pound nothing is now going into 2nd grade, can read to her sister, and spell (even when we spell over her head). She is amazing - It is so funny to watch her personality keep growing and developing, she going to make an increadable adult one day (although most days she thinks she is nearly there).

One cupcake - no frosting coming up! (Tylar is not a fan of frosting so she usually will not take one or ask for one without - crazy kid)

The beloved Twinkle Toes - shoes she has been asking for these for nearly over a year. Good thing school sales started early - there was no way I was going to pay $50 for kids shoes!!

Tylar and I did the iron-on thing to make her "goodie bags" for her party - I think she had more fun making these than actually drecorating them at her party. Each girl got to decorate her own bag with glitter paint and fabric markers as a craft at the party, most of them were dry by the end of the day. (you can really see each ones personality as to how they decorate)

It was a GIRLS RULE WATER PARTY - we had two water slides up, a pool, and a bucket full of 300+ water balloons. They had a blast and I hardly had to do a thing, and I bet you're wondering how I got all those broken water balloons off our lawn? There was a prize for the girl who had the Largest pile of water balloon leftovers after they finished throwing them - pretty smart huh!!!

Ryann with their friend Jenna - those two were hooked at the hip the entire day. Gotta love that Jenna, she is usually shy but I have to say she really came alive and active at this party.

Disco Ball Pinata!! It was a pull pinata, but we had filled it too full so when they pulled the strings the one that was supposted to open the flap just broke off - matt had to "punch" it open.

Ready, Set, Pull ----

Matt!!! He was such a great help that day, the girls sure love teasing him, and I don't mean my girls.

Blowing out the candles - Tylar had asked for a Pumpkin Pie instead of cake for party (she typically doesn't like cake), we decided to make both so her friends could eat their cake - and their Pie if they wanted to.

I was shocked, about 6 out of 9 asked for AND ate pumpkin pie along with their cupcakes. Most of them were very excited when we brought out the pie, I would have never quessed.

The girls of summer - GIRLS RULE SWIM PARTY!!!!
