Birthday Girls

Today was McKenzie and Madisynn's Birthday. It was a great day, and I'm so glad it's over! =) McKenzie turned 5 and Madisynn turned 3. They are growing up so fast. I can't believe it!

McKenzie 5 years old. =)

Madisynn 3 years old. =)

So sweet!

Sorry about the bum crack, she always has one! LOL I love this picture though, it's so cute! I love my girls. =)

The girls were so excited that their birthday had finally arrived. They wanted their cake and presents, and this is what I had to listen to all day long. "Mom can I have my presents???" I got tired of repeating myself. The girls wanted to have another princess party this year. McKenzie Sleeping beauty, and Maddie Ariel. I decided to get creative this year with the cake. I made a princess castle cake. Here it is:

I thought it turned out pretty good. The girls liked it, and that's all that mattered!

Here are the girls blowing out the candles:

It was so fun singing happy birthday to them. The girls were singing happy birthday to themselves. It was funny, and very cute. It's one of their favorite songs to sing, so they are pros!

Then came time for presents, the most exciting part by far! They quickly forgot about the cake and were tearing into their presents. So here is some pictures of what they got:

Sleeping beauty and Ariel of course!

Here is one with the girls and my Mom:

She gave them these cute masks that they can decorate, some sidewalk chalk and sidewalk chalk paint, and some other crafty things to do. They loved it! We also gave them some water balloons, and squirt guns, and bubbles because we plan on being outside a lot this summer. We are tired of being cooped up in the house! So their was our day, no huge party or anything, we just kept it small and simple. Again I'm glad it's over, and I'm so ready for bed! Happy birthday to my 2 baby girls! =)

1 year

Well we have officially done it. We have made it 1 year in our house. I can't believe it!!! Buying a house was one of the most stressful things I have ever done. I really don't want to go through it again! LOL If we have too, then I will, but for now we are staying here. I love it here, love our neighbors, our ward. It's a great area! I'm looking forward to doing more in our home. We weren't able to afford to do anything really last year, but now that we got our taxes back we have done a little. The first thing that we did was buy a new fridge. I love it!!! This is the one we bought:I love that the freezer is on the bottom. I love black. I love the space in the fridge. So organized! I love the ice maker, and water dispenser too. Very convenient! It's beautiful!

The next thing we did was buy ceiling fans for our kitchen, and our bedroom. I love them! They give off so much more light then the lights we had before. Here is a picture of what they look like:So yes some nice additions to our home! Looking forward to doing more! =)
