Happy Birthday to my sweet McKenzie


This last Tuesday was my sweet McKenzie's 6th Birthday! I can't believe how fast these last 6 years have gone! She got to celebrate for days this year and was exhausted when we were finally done! She started out with her friend party last Saturday. She wanted to have a water party, so we pulled out the pools and the slip and slide and let the kids have at it! We also had water balloons, BBQ'ed hot dogs, had a pinata and cake and ice cream! The kids had a ball!! Then, a couple of hours after the kids were gone from the party, we packed McKenzie up and went out to Scott's parents house! McKenzie got to spend the weekend with his family, having one last sleepover before School starts next Monday! She went to church with his family and loved being sung to in Primary, made pinkalicious cupcakes (it is from a really cute book called "Pinkalicious") and spent Monday shopping and going to lunch with Grandma! Scott's mom took her to Build-a-Bear and she made a little bunny named LuLu and she just LOVES it! Then Monday night, Scott's family brought her back up and we had a little family party with both of our families! Tuesday, her actual birthday, we had a real low key day, which was good because she was exhausted from her sleepover! We went and got treats to take to her first soccer practice, then went shopping to get something with a gift card she received. She spent the afternoon playing with her new things and just relaxing. Then when Scott got home, we let her open the rest of her presents, and we went to dinner, which of course she got to choose where to go, so off we went to Carl's Jr (they love that "play place") and then afterwards, it was off to her first soccer practice! Then last night we took the kids to their first demolition derby! She even lost 2 teeth this week as well! She lost one on Monday afternoon and the second one tonight! We love her so much and are so glad she is part of our family! She is so excited to start 1st grade on Monday and even eat lunch at school! She is such a good sister to her brother and sister and we love her so much!
