More Pool Fun

We kept the pool slide a couple extra days after Emily's party before we could return it. And what better to do while it was at our house than to invite Mandy, Jake & Zach back over for some more fun that the grown-ups could enjoy!

Emily enjoyed bouncing down the slide.


Check out David's launch!

Megan even had a blast inside the baby pool with Grandma V and Cassie.

Emily's 5th Birthday

Emily chose to have a pool party this year. Since we don't have much of a pool ourselves (just the small one shown in the picture), we were able to borrow the large pool slide from Emily's friend from Preschool. It was a huge success!
The backyard was full of screaming and laughing children for over 2 hours. I had originally planned games in addition to the pool fun, but there was no time for it. The kids just kept jumping in and out of the pools and sliding down while throwing water balloons at each other.

We were able to invite a few of Emily's favorite friends from Preschool and their families.
(Kendel, Heidi, Jaime, Bailey, Lori, Evan, Gabby, Emily, Maia, Addison)

Emily's favorite gift was her bicycle. David timed presenting it perfectly. All the presents were opened, including a bike bell and a helmet, and Emily was just starting to run away with her friends when David opened the garage and there it was. Emily screamed and ran to it. The only thing that got her off was the cake a minute later. (pics of the amazing cake coming soon)

Megan's Pig Tails

Megan got kidnapped by Mandy during Emily's birthday party. When she came back she looked like this:
Isn't she ADORABLE!

Ugh

I swear I'm going to post more soon. Our computer has been in the shop for over 2 weeks now and it was broken for a couple weeks before that. It is really annoying me to only have David's laptop (thank goodness for at least that) and I miss my computer. Once they ship it back to me from Utah I promise to post more photos of my cute girls. They are piling up on my camera and I need to clear them out!
