Happy Birthday To Me!!!!!


We started out my birthday with an early lunch at Casa Ole....my favorite! The staff sang to me and the manager brought me ice cream and let me keep the sombrero!


Then it was off to League Park for my party! We had a mad scientist who showed my friends and I all kinds of fun experiments......


We used a potato launcher to try and shoot a stuffed chicken out of a tree.....


We helped place mentos into diet coke containers. Why you may ask....


They explode!


We made a rocket.....


and helped launch it....


It went really high!


Grandpa and Meghan watched everything from a safe distance!


My Hot Wheel themed party wouldn't have been complete without a few fast tracks to play with!


The scientist played his ukulele while everyone sang happy birthday to me!


Blowing out my 4 candles!


After the experiments were over and my tummy was full of cake and candy from the pinata, I decided to run over to the playground....


What a busy but fun day!


We didn't even have time to open my gifts at the park so I had to wait until the next morning. It was like Christmas in March and sister helped me unwrap some of the gifts too!



I received so many wonderful gifts from family and friends!


Our living room looked like a toy store!


I was excited to put together the tent Aunt Jodi, Uncle David and my cousins bought for me....


There was also an awesome space sleeping bag. Sister and I had so much fun having a camp out in my room!

Special Birthday Chapel!


After being sick all spring break and the beginning of this week, I finally felt well enough to go to school. Luckily I was well in time to enjoy my special birthday chapel. My teachers made a crown for me to wear!


When the Bible lesson was over Mrs. Karen called for me to come to the front of the chapel for my special birthday blessing and song. What a great day!

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo 2011

We were all excited about our trip to the rodeo. I have been asking to ride light rail for months!


I thought it was worth the wait. I had a blast!


We met up with my cousins inside and stopped first to learn all about how bees make honey....


I planted some sunflower seeds....


Megs pet her first rabbit!


Megs had the best seat in the house! She could see everything from the top of dads shoulders....



Watching the baby chicks hatch was awesome!


Getting ready for my first big ferris wheel ride!


Going up!


The view was amazing!


Bumper cars were fun!


Little cowboy on a big horse!


Meghan in her new, pink cowgirl hat!


Arrgh....Even pirates like to rodeo!


Mommy wow.....I'm a big kid now!!


Best seat on the ride!


Time for tea!
