Birthday Party Weekend

This past Saturday we celebrated Anna's 6th birthday. My sweet girl was born on August 30th, however Daddy is going to be in Nicaragua on a mission trip on the actual day, so the celebration was planned for Saturday. When I asked her what theme she wanted for her party she said a pool party. Quite appropriate considering this has been the summer of swimming, but a pool party was a little out of our league, so we decided a water party could be just as fun. And from the squeals that went on in our backyard I'd say it might have even been more fun!

The day started with cake and ice cream.


Then on to the presents...Anna's favorite part.

Besides new earrings, a Giselle doll from the Enchanted movie was what she wanted from Mom and Dad.

The living room was filled with family and friends and made the day extra sweet!

Finally, the water fun was under way. And boy did they get wet!
Micah was a wild man on the slip and slide. He did not want to wait in line and would cut in between every other slider. He had a blast!

This was definately a party to remember and one that will go down in the history books. (Well, at least Anna's life history book.)

Happy (almost) Birthday my sweet cheeks!
