Kate and Hank's POOL Party!!!

Today, we celebrated two very special friends' birthdays!

Kate (4) and Hank (1).  

 

We spent the day pooling around!

 Which included, chicken Fights.

 3 chickens turkeys!

 Caleb enjoys the homemade slip-n-slide.

 These two cuties enjoy BUBBLE CAKE CUPCAKES!!!

 And I think Mason's face enjoyed the cupcake more than his belly!

 Daniel enjoyed watching daddy make big splashes.

 Brett giving Ty some "big brother"/UNCLE love!

 Watermelon Football Fun!

 Darren throws the watermelon to his teammate.

 Darren goes up for a block as Aaron tries to throw it.

 Brett takes a snooze
 While the others work hard,
 To steal the slippery watermelon away!

 He got some watermelon stuck in his big toe.  Look closely.

They are the sunshine of our lives!

We are happy to know Kate and Hank and to be a part of their lives.  As we watch them grow each and every year, it is beautiful to see what God is doing in their lives and their families lives.  They bring great joy to the Fernandez family and to ours! We anticipate being a part of their lives forever and ever! Happiest days Kate and Hank!  Many blessings to you today and throughout this next year.

Vivian Turns 5!

 Inside the invite, was a small package of fairy dust to 

"Sprinkle on your cheeks" on party day!!

One of Lilah's friends, Vivian, turned 5 last week.  Her birthday was held at "Our Little Cherubs Boutique".  The theme was all about Fairies! Lisa, Vivian's mommy, hired a really neat "fairy" face painter too.  The party provided dress up fairy clothing and a special Melissa and Doug craft.  It was a very girly party!!  It's hard to believe I met Vivian when she was 6 months old and now she is 5 years old.  She is a very smart, well mannered little girl.  I am happy that Lilah has these types of friends to spend her days with.  

Enjoy the ONLY pictures of the party I took.  I left my camera in the car, on accident, so the photos are not as good quality because I had to use my phone.

 Fairies are invisible girls with wings.

Opening gifts!

Making lipgloss.

Each girl got to make their own personalized flavored lipstick.

 It took Lilah over 1 hour to warm up to finally agree to a face painting.
Notice she is NOT in fairy clothing.
She NEVER warmed up enough to partake in the dress up fun!

I also had to do my arm FIRST before Lilah would consider getting hers done.

 She started with an arm painting actually.

 Afterwards, the girls got to paint and decorate their own jewelry box.

This was Lilah's FAVORITE part of the party.

The birthday girl paints her box!

Kate and Julia paint their boxes TOO!

Yuri and Liley decorate their boxes.

Princess glam glitters!
