A Cake Smashing Good Time!

Alyssa saw a video of her First Birthday this summer and ever since then she has wanted a special cake to smash her face in for this birthday. We live to make them happy - right?!?!
Had to crack the archive open for this flashback to January 2005. Wow, how time flies!

Just too much fun, not to share.

And share . . .
Cake smashing laughs with her BFF - priceless! : )
Almost as priceless as turning Two and slurping on juice boxes - January 2006.
Hali was at this party too, dang they were cute!
Don't forget, Cooper!
Group shot (L-R): Paige, Piper, Hali, Alyssa, Joey, Cooper and Nicky in front.
Only the girls spent the night (whew!) - a Spongetastic Sleepover!
Girls like to rock!
Guess who was the LAST one up?!?! Welcome to 7, Sleepy Deepy - we LOVE you!

Happy Birthday Alyssa #6


Another year gone by and our little "five pound sack of sugah" has turned one year older. I suppose I should do a thoughtful post about how wonderful you are now and all the things you are doing so when we look back we will remember you as you turned six, but I'm suffering from post-birthday depression. Your BIG day is over, the one you look forward to ALL year and the next celebration in our household will be my trip "over the hill." You are amazing and we love everyday we have with you. YOU are the best gift EVER! Anyway, Mrs. Jerilyn did your Hello Kitty Cake and it was once again awesome! Your hair looks a little funny because you decided to cut it yourself and Mr. Tony said he's not a magician. And your two front teeth are so loose, either or both could come out at any minute.

Best Buds Hali and Piper came and you complained you didn't get to play with them enough at your party. We will have another play date soon, but there's nothing like TRUE friends.

Great Aunt Missy, Vuvva and Nana represented the family this year. We really missed all of our other Family members that could not make it (we ate your cake!).

Piper and Alyssa on the Jett Rider - is this FUN or what?!?

I think this is my favorite shot - wonder what she's thinking?

Another head on with my camera. I still can't believe she's really six. I remember six. If we have any more bad parenting from this point on she WILL remember (gasp!).

Alyssa and Chuck E. Cheese, he's sitting down, but she's so much taller, in just one year, really?!?

Alyssa and some of her birthday friends posing with Chuck - what a great day! I'm still not sure if I'm happy or sad. Kinda just like you were, happy for the most part but sad when it's over. We love you girl, just a little more each day! Thanks for making life worth the roller coaster ride :)

Play date with Hali

After three years of saying we were gonna do it, we FINALLY had a play date with Hali! Alyssa was so excited to have her come over to her house!

Here Alyssa is showing Hali some dance moves from Alyssa's latest passion High School Musical. I'm not sure how we went from toddler to tween but we are there!

Next, on to Star Wars . . .

Then on to Push-ups, even better than when we were kids and they were just orange. Unicorns love them!

No play date is complete at our house without a trip to Chic-fil-A, here the girls are riding in twin "boosts" displaying some of their artwork. The girls had a fantastic time together. Thanks Hali for coming over and for being such a great friend!

Preschool Graduation Photos


Can it really be time for our 5 pound "sack of sugah" to go to Kindergarten?

That's what this Diploma says.

The Three Amigas sharing refreshments - we are REALLY gonna miss our friends, especially Piper and Hali!

And our teachers, especially Ms. Melissa and Ms. Elsa.

I love this photo! Our Preschool "boyfriend" - Gabriel, notice the matching missing tooth.

Hali, William, Gabriel and Alyssa - Look Out Kindergarten . . . . . .

El Cinco de Mayo


This week has been so crazy busy that I just about could not get it all blogged - but here is the last bloggable event - El Cinco de Mayo, Alyssa's class performed and celebrated with the parents on El Siete de Mayo (the 7th). The kids did a fantastic job - they sang a song in Spanish, performed a Mexican Hat Dance and scrambled for candy with an indoor Pinata. Here they are getting ready to sing with Ms. Melissa and Ms. Elsa close by for support.

Here they are dancing and shaking flowers . . .

The two toothless wonders, Gabriel and Alyssa.
