Happy 4th Birthday Brynn!

It's so hard to believe that Brynn is 4!  She kept asking me all day about the day she was born and I can literally remember every single detail. It's crazy. How have 4 years gone by?  We started out her real birthday celebration at sweet and sassy last night for a frozen event night. They had a limo ride, hair, make up and then coloring and a pizza party and then a walk down the runway!  How fun?!!  

Then this morning Brynn woke up to a decorated house and her room full of balloons. We went to Dunkin donuts and came home and had breakfast. Then we went to the park and then back home for lunch. We napped and then went to the pool and our friends came and met us and we celebrated her special day. 

Brynn definitely keeps us on our toes and gives us a run for our money. But she is the sweetest, biggest hearted girl you will ever meet. She loves everything and gets so excited about everything.  It's so fun to experience things with Brynn. She's awesome. She has a sense of style like no one else. She's always in a dress or a tutu and would wear her dress up shoes everyday if she could. We love you Brynn and everything about you. Don't change sweet girl!  

All Stars!

Tonight was the softball all star game and Kate was chosen to play!  She had a great game and had a lot of fun!  Way to go Kate!!!

Brynn's 4th birthday party

We celebrated Brynn's 4th birthday with family and a few of her friends. We had her party at a moon bounce place & she had a blast. She loved every second of her party!  It was an Elsa and Ariel party, of course. 

Pierced ears!!

The girls got their ears pierced tonight!  Brynn has been asking and we said ok. Kate said Brynn could go first but when we got there Kate went first. She did awsome- didn't shed a tear!!  Brynn went next and laughed when it was over. Then cried for a second!  And then saw the earrings in the mirror and she loved it. She was soooo excited. They both were so very excited. We are so proud of them!!!

Bible School

Kate has gone to Bible School for the past 2 summers and again this year. But Brynn gets to join this summer!!  My mom is dropping them off so I take them there and then my parents take them and pick them up. Brynn must be listening because tonight she told me that it was ok I was alone. Jesus loves me. 

Pool!

We joined my childhood pool this summer & we are having a blast. Everyone is so nice & Kate and Brynn have friends there to play with. Kate goes all over the pool- down the slide, off the diving board. Brynn wants to be in the small section of the big pool & she's doing great. Chase plays in the baby pool but he can stand in the little section. 

We went there tonight for dinner and a swim!  So much fun!!

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers in our lives. Most especially to My own Dad and to Rich. They are both wonderful fathers and my children are so lucky to have them both in their lives.

We woke rich up and have him his cards. One part of his present was golfing with his friend Brian, which they've done for a few years now and the other part was a movie theater popcorn machine. I thought what could I get him from the babies that they would all enjoy?  This is perfect!!!  Then he was off to golf we met Lauren and the boys at the park. After the park we went to my parents' house to see my dad. We had lunch with him there. Then home for naps and then we went to the pool and Lauren, Brian and the boys met us and we had dinner and played. It was the best weekend. Totally loving summer already!!

Happy Father's Day!!

Last day of 1st grade!

Today was Kate's last day of first grade! How in the world did that happen?!?  It's just unreal to me. She isn't happy school is over though. She loves her teacher and we did too and she loves being with all of her friends. After she got home, we cleaned her room and then went to the pool. While at the pool, we found out she was chosen by her softball team's parents for the All Star game!!!!  Goooo Kate!!!!!!  Yay!!!!!!!   So we went to bruesters to celebrate her amazing year, her perfect report card and her being a 2nd grader!!!!!  And when we asked her this morning what she wants to be when she grows up she told us a cook. It's been a cook for about 6 months now. Love you my KK!!

Publisher's party

The 1st grade all wrote books and their teachers had them made into hard backs. They had a party to celebrate and they read them to us. We then watched a video that the class photographer took of the class. I don't think that there was a dry eye!!  Here are some photos from today. 

Brynn's swimming

Brynn moved up to an one hour group in swimming. She did awesome and ended the lesson diving from the platform!!  This was definitely a lot more work for her but she's by far the youngest in her class. Her teacher assures me she will be fine. Way to go my little blonde fishy. 

Italian Festival

Tonight we went to the Italian Festival!  I love if!!  I get chills when I see the green, white and red flags all over the surrounding blocks. We rode on a few rides and then got some treats. Kate wanted to be on the big rides and Brynn does anything Kate does. Chase is just a little shy of the height requirement so hopefully next year he can ride. I got my favorite panzarotti that I get once a year. Kate got dipping dots and Brynn got water ice and they both shared with Chase. Rich opted for none of the Italian food. Hopefully we can go back again!

Softball party!

And to end all of our events today, we had the team party this evening. Our township was showing Frozen in the park at dusk. So Rich thought it would be fun to incorporate the softball party that night too. We had pretzels cupcakes juice and sodas. Rich got the girls all trophies and we had a blast celebrating. Rich and the girls stayed so here are some pics. 

Brynn's recital- 1st one

Today was Brynn's recital!  Her very first one. She was so excited for her. She would wake up everyday asking if it was her recital. She was just adorable about it. She had her last soccer game this morning and then napped and then off to recital. I put some make up on her and that made her even happier. She did an amazing job!  Absolutely amazing!!!  She got up there and danced her heart out and was laughing and smiling the entire time. She and her friend just hit all the moves and laughed the whole time. I wish I could have videoed it. She got a medal and flowers and her whole little life was made!

June 6- happy birthday mom!

Yesterday was my mom's birthday!  Happy birthday Mom! We didn't get to celebrate yesterday because we had a wedding. Mom and dad babysat and I think that was the best present. We got namma cupcakes and they sang to her then. Such a fun time for them and we had a blast too!

Last softball game- June 5

Kate had her last softball game on June 5. We were all able to go!  And she played awesome!!!  Had amazing hits, great fielding and most importantly had a blast!!  But the biggest surprise was that the phanatic showed up!!!!
