~The Birthday Girl~

Our birthday girl, Lexi, turned 6 yesterday.  For the longest time, she has been asking if I'd make her breakfast in bed for her birthday.  So we started her special day off with just that.  She was so happy!

She looks a little sleepy still, lol.  It was funny to watch her try and blow out the candles.  It took her several attempts to blow them out.   She commented that she just didn't have any air :)

Lexi woke right up when I told her she could open 1 present.  She wasn't very happy that is was just clothes. :)  Later that morning, I went and helped in Mckell's class.  Lexi and Garrett went over to Melyns to be watched while I was at the school.  Mindy and Melyn were so cute.  They had a little party for Lexi.  They had cupcakes and a gift.  Lexi was in heaven!

I promised Lexi that we could go and feed the ducks and have a picnic lunch at the park before heading to Kindergarten.  We invited Melyn to join us.  They had a great time!

After our fun afternoon with the ducks, we headed to Lexi's school to celebrate her special day.

That evening, we celebrated her birthday by opening presents, playing at Kangaroo Zoo, dinner at Texas Roahhouse, and we ended the evening with a movie.  By the end of the day, we were exhausted!!!  We played hard :).

Lexi got spoiled!

I love Lexi's face in this picture:)  Hunter surprised Lexi by pulling her down the slide with him.

Garrett was so funny tonight.  He wouldn't go down anything.  It's like he was terrified.  I don't know if it was because he is a little off cause he is getting some new molars, or if he just wanted Dave's attention.  But he wouldn't go on anything.  Finally, I told Dave to go away, and I just stuck him in a kiddy blow up toy.  He cried at first, but then when he realized no one was going to take him out, he started to bounce and have fun :)  I know I am a mean mom, lol.  But it got him to play.

Lexi was so excited when they sang Happy Birthday to her.  I love that Texas Roadhouse does this.  Not many places do anymore.  It really made her night!

Lexi had a GREAT birthday!!!  I'm glad we got to have fun and celebrate her as a family. We are so blessed to have Lexi in our lives.  She is the sweetest, kindest, funnest, and biggest helper around.  Our family would not be the same without her.
