Peter Pan Party

My daughter came home church one day and said my mom I am planning a party. I said that is fine dear. Well I didn't think much about it. Until my friend said that Bryanna had invited them over to a Peter Pan Party. Well then I ask Bryanna about it and we planned a Peter Pan Party for the next day. She had her friends come dressed up in costumes. We did lunch with chicken nuggets and mac-n-cheese. Which is Bryanna's favorite lunch food. Then she played games outside with the kids like duck,duck goose, freeze tag and a bird game. We had cupcakes for a treat. It made Bryanna's day and I thought it was so cute. I am so glad that my friend played along with us. What a funny little girl.
My daughter had her first friend sleepover. Danielle and Bryanna are the best of friends and they are always saying that they are twins in so many ways. They were planning this sleepover for a year. They had so much fun. I can't believe that my little girl and growing up. I am so grateful for great friends for my daughter. Thanks Heather for letting Danielle do this. Friends are so great!

4th of July Fun

This fourth of July we had a fun weekend of exciting parties. First we attended the baptism of my niece JoAnna. It was so fun to go too. My mom would have been so proud of that little girl. On days like this is when I miss her the most. Then we had a party at Jo's house. It is so fun to get all the cousins together. They are growing up so fast. We got all the three babies together which is the first time since little Kennedy was born. The funny thing is that all the three babies born this year start with the letter K. Then we had a picnic with Grandma and Grandpa. Bryanna got to play at the playground. Kyle got to get wood chips. Bryan got to go fishing and set off fireworks. It was a fun day. It is always fun to have the family together. It seems like life gets so busy that we don't get many of these days.

This summer has been a crazy one. I thought it would be slow and relaxing. It has been anything but slow. We have been to the zoo a couple times with cousins. It is fun to go and see all the animals and sometimes even act like animals. Our last trip to zoo Kyle was watching all the animals. His eyes got really big when the animal came close. Bryanna loves going so she can ride the rides and see all the different kinds of animals. She loves all the baby animals. I love walking around at least I am getting a good workout. This last time to the zoo it was so hot.
