Party Time!

On the way to Grandma and Grandpa's we stopped at our favorite sandwich place. Lou originally said she wanted to go to McDonald's but her sisters talked her into this place. :)

 
She was tired after lunch and wanted to snuggle. It reminded me so much of this picture when she was only a couple months old. She may be 5 but she'll always be my baby!

 
We got to the farm and the girls started playing right away. I set up for the party. Cousin K's birthday was the day before and Grandpa's the next week so we had a triple birthday party. It was Paw Patrol on one side of the table and mermaids on the other. The girls said that Grandpa's theme could be Mer-Pups. Haha.

 
K was showing them something cool.

 
We had pizza, Caesar salad, and apple salad. 
 
 
This girl loves "pineapple pizza". I literally just take cheese pizza and put tons of pineapple on it and she loves it.  
 

F got to come with us for Thanksgiving! Lou was very excited that he was at her party. :)

 
Cousin K is already 9! Seems like just the other day we were heading up to the hospital to meet her.

 
Bug and Cousin S were playing a game where you use your mouth to flip a cup onto another. It was really funny.

 
S did it on the first try so then Bug was determined to do it too but she never was able to. 


 
We sang to the three birthday people. Peanut made Grandpa and Lou's cakes.


 
And K didn't want a cake so they brought an ice cream bar with all sorts of fun toppings! Everyone loved it!

 
More pictures Monday!

Leftover Thursday

 Lou's photography on a family game night...


 
Buddy joining Peaches for school.

 
Peaches and Lou made a Lego dance party and had the figures doing some pretty cool moves!

 
They did that while we spent an entire Saturday cleaning out and rearranging the basement!  We haven't been able to fully open the door to this storage room for months and I finally got it all back in order!
 
 
The old brown couch went out to the playhouse so we were able to make a little home gym area! I've been wanting to do that for years!
 
 
And we got the Legos more organized and contained into one spot. 

 
Yay!

Birthday!

 Lou had a wonderful birthday! She was so excited when she woke up and saw that Peanut had decorated her door!


We brought her to the basement to see her present!

 
She is always hanging on the railing and getting in trouble so we got her something she can climb and hang on!

 
They are going to get a lot of use out of this!

 
Bug is laughing here because the first thing she said was, "Oh good! Now I don't have to climb on F anymore. I can climb on this!

 
Peanut also showed them that they could make it into a fort.


 
Birthday hugs!

 
She picked donuts for breakfast.


 
Then we did some presents. Peaches got her the new Chase car from the Mighty movie we went to. 

 
She was slightly excited. Haha.


 
Aunt Karen got her this adorable bunny hat!

 
When you squeeze the ends the ears pop up! She loved it and was so funny!


 

Auntie N and family got her a Paw Patrol backpack with all sorts of fun stuff in it.

 
I love how excited she gets!

 
So proud!

 
After presents we packed up and headed for Grandma and Grandpa's...pictures to come!
