Emily Turned 7!!!!


This year Emily decided that she wanted to have her party at home. Luckily her birthday fell on a Sunday so that we could have her party on her actual birthday. She invited 16 girls and we had a "Backyard Birthday Bash". Eric set up the Banzai Falls water slide, the kiddie pool, a racing Slip n' Slide and an octopus sprinkler that didn't work. The girls all had a great time. They also broke out the Karaoke machine, and it only took a couple hours for my headache to go away!

The boys had a great time too. Hunter lasted a good hour before retreating to the house to escape the girls (and play Guitar Hero). He made it back out for the pinata, but he had to wear the same blindfold as everyone else.



Finn hung out in the screen house most of the day, and loved being out in the warm breeze.


Wyatt was in a dancing mood.....



I hope this video works because it's taking FOREVER to upload!!!!

Emily's Birthday Bash looks like it was so much fun. Water slides are always a hit in the summer!
