The photographer asked the girls to hold hands and

both girls hid their hands behind their back and made

the same face.

William had a great day for his birthday!

He started with making chocolate chip muffins...

Then he painted a masterpiece...
Then we went to Kangarooz to jump-jump!

Of course this is one of William's favorites and he

jumps up to hit the pirate's sword.

The girls holding hands to slide

William wanted tacos for his Birthday dinner so

we all headed to the local Mexican restaurant.

William was making his best pirate face.

The waitress tricked William and put whipped cream

on his nose instead of in his mouth.

William was very shy while they sang "Happy Birthday" to him.

We ended the night with William's favorite-Pink strawberry

icecream with M&Ms and gummy bears!

William got to wear the class birthday hat today... And enjoy cupcakes with his class, Dada, Mama and sisters!

We had a great afternoon at a friend's horse farm.

Emily riding Shine

Emily called Shine "My Baby Horse" and she

ended up having three turns to ride her.

Hannah chose to ride Lucky.
Hannah thanking Lucky for a great ride.

William chose to ride Shine also and he learned

the proper holds on the saddle.

The kids were yelling "Hee-haw" to the miniature

donkey. Hannah was a little afraid and William

step in as the protective big brother.
