SIX

The Twins turned six on Friday!

We actually started celebrating a little early with our Co-op Buddies:

They decorated heart cookies on Thursday


Lots of fun!


So pretty!


So much Sugar!


They were serenaded by their buddies and then....they chowed down!




One of the downsides of homeschool is that we don't have teacher workdays....however one of the upsides is we never have school on our birthdays!
So Friday we took off school!!!!


I can't believe it.....
Six years old!


They woke up early to open their presents!
They've been wanting helmets for their bikes....their old ones were a bit snug!


Posing in their sunglasses....they got new swimsuits for this summer too!
Love these two!

However...they were most excited about going to Build-A-Bear!


They each made their own bear and got an outfit!

We headed to the play area....but it did take a while to get there....


Audrey had to hug EVERY metal dog we passed....there are a lot of metal dogs at Southpointe!


Then they got to play on the playground.


We met Randy's parents and sister for lunch at Chuck E Cheese!


Thank you Grammy and Pepaw!

Jack was a little scared of the animals....but they had a good time!


Then we went home and rode bikes.....had to test out the new helmets!


Thumbs Up!


After having some rest time and play time we got ready for dinner!

Friday Night we met my sister and parents at Dickey's where they treated the Twinkies to dinner!


Presents!



They had a great birthday!

They were exhausted by the end of the day!
BEDTIME!

Saturday the celebration continued with a birthday bash at Wheels Play Center:


They were sooooo excited!  This was their first big friend party!
We usually just do family parties....they did have a party once at the church gym a few years ago....but never anything like this....

So to say they were excited may be an understatement!


Lydia wanted a monkey cake....

and

Jackson wanted a dolphin cake....



I did my best.....it was going to cost $90 to have them both made.....so we decided an imperfect one made by me would have to do!

Enjoyed seeing everyone!


Sweet Babies!


Neighbors!


Cousins!


Friends!


Somebody is ready for cake!


Making Wishes!


:Love my sweet boy!


Came home with some happy and exhausted younguns!


Tomorrow....we have got to get cleaned up and back on track....
but we did have a super fun time celebrating these sweet ones!

Happy SIXTH Birthday Jackson and Lydia!!!!

  4. I LOVE the picture of Jack and Lydia with their shades! Adorable! And the one of the five kids at the mall is really sweet too. Something about that sibling affection and seeing a big brother holding his little sister just does something to me:)
