Our Little "Tink" turns 3!

Kyleigh chose a Tinkerbell theme for her 3rd birthday party.  It was supposed to be held in "Pixie Hollow" (the grove of trees in our yard), but the rain had other ideas, so we moved it to our church dining hall.  Kyleigh is always a little (lot???) wild, but she was in rare form for her party.  My mind was just going in circles!  All in all, she had a great party with her family and friends!

Concentrating hard on the Tinkerbell Bingo game...

The spread...fruit and cheese kabobs (the kids loved these), fairy wands (pretzels dipped in white chocolate and sprinkles), chips with dip served in hollowed-out cabbages, and pixie sticks taped to fake flower stems.

"I wish for..."

The fun of purple icing!

The kids decorated their own cupcakes with "pixie dust".

Well, I guess that's one way to devour the cupcake.  :)

Her very own Tinkerbell costume from Mama & Daddy...what a cutie she will be!  Happy 3rd Kyleigh!

Wedding Bells Are Ringing!

The girls are crazy about their Uncle Steven and enjoy spending time with him and the "new" Cindy!  One day when I mentioned the name Cindy, Billie asked me if I was talking about the "old" Cindy (my friend) or the "new" Cindy (Steven's wife).  Ha!  :)  Here we are at their wedding in May.  I already posted our drama that occurred that day, so now we'll just focus on the positive...we made it in time for the wedding, and everyone is happy in the picture.  :) 

Princesses for a Day!

Billie, Kyleigh, their friend Elizabeth and her cousin, went to "Princess Day" at Chick-fil-A in May.  They all had such a good time!  It was a very nice event and all FREE...don't find that much anymore.  :)

All smiles with their airbrushed tattoos...

Awaiting a limo ride (this was my 1st limo ride as well...ha!)

"Eat More Chicken!"

Getting nails painted...notice Kyleigh's enthusiasm!

Nothing runs like a John Deere!

"We want on the 'Big Daddy' tractor with PawPaw!!!"

Take me out to the Ballgame!

Michael and I took the girls to the Northwest Arkansas Naturals opening game in April; the atmosphere at Arvest Ballpark is great, and they had several activities for the opening night.  The girls love to watch "STRIKE", the mascot.  He arrived by helicopter

before the game.

We had to bundle up; it was so chilly that evening.

They were super excited to meet Natalie, who was the winner of last season's "Survivor".

A week later, Mom & Dad took all of us to an Arkansas Razorback baseball game.  GO HOGS!!!

Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks...OR SOME COTTON CANDY!  Just what the kids needed..pure sugar!!!

Good times with those we love and wins for both Arkansas teams!!!

Picture Perfect!

Beautiful flowers and Beautiful girls...

Easter Tradtions!

Coloring eggs...this year, cousins Balin and Averie

came to color eggs with the girls.

Billie & Kyleigh with the finished eggs

Hunting Easter Eggs at church...they filled up!  Notice Kyleigh's chocolate teeth; she just couldn't wait!

Sitting on the Easter Bunny's lap...Billie kept telling Kyleigh that there was someone in that Easter Bunny.  She kept staring so intently trying to figure it out.

"Yay!  The Easter Bunny left us surprises!"

Sadly, there is no picture for the next tradition...a family picture at our church's Sunrise Service.  Why?  Because I was so sick in bed.  Michael took the girls to church and breakfast, while I had to stay behind.  I don't like missing church on any Sunday, but to miss on Easter Sunday was especially frustrating.

And Lastly, a big Easter Dinner...again, I missed out.  Michael and the girls went to Mom & Dad's with the rest of the family to eat and hunt eggs.

They didn't know PawPaw was getting in their picture.  After they noticed him, Billie said, "Oh you silly PawPaw!!!!"
