Sarah's 5th Birthday - Kids Party

These photos are from Sarah Kids Party. She was allowed to invite 5 friends. When I asked her who she would like to invite she gave me about 10 names. I asked the kindy director to see who Sarah plays with and she said that Sarah plays with everyone...not very helpful! Ha ha. In the end I chose the ones that I have seen her interact with. What a production!

I think Laura was too busy eating to smile for the camera.....lol

This is what happens when I tell Sarah to smile.......she's such a character!

Laura's First Birthday Party

Sorry it's been awhile......I hope this will make up for it.

Sarah "helping" Laura unwrap her presents. Because that's what Big Sisters do.

Laura, Sarah & Kirra

We visited Laurel Bank Park to meet up with my friend Jo and her fiance, Anthony. We finally got to meet their new little girl Kirra. Kirra is now 3 months old, so it has taken us a while to catch up with them.

Sarah's First Fish!

Sarah was really excited to go fishing with Daddy.
Steve asked if she would like to touch the bait......"No thanks", she said.
Holding her fishing rod like a pro....??
First fish (after a couple of crabs had nibbled off the bait)
Hooray for Sarah!!! (The fish was let go, of course)

Camping Holiday 2008...Part 2

My beautiful girls at the beach.

Sarah and her friend trying to fill up the moat with water. Didn't really work as the water would drain away between buckets. Funny to watch, though. LOL.
The sandcastle......looks more like a smiley face. :)
