So my girls discovered this year that the 4th of July is celebrating America’s birthday. Well, no wonder its such a big celebration! We had so much fun heading up to New Jersey again to spend time with friends and enjoy the fireworks at the beautiful Jersey Shore!
So we love when the sun finally shines long enough to pull out our little plastic pool and fill it up with enough hose water to cool off without freezing to death. We definitely don’t have the luxury of an Arizona sun to warm up the water! Here are the girls playing with some of their cute friends in the pool.
So Sydney finished her first year of school successfully with smiles. Of course it helps that she had an amazing teacher, and its so sad that we can’t keep the teachers we love from year to year!
On top of going to a new grade next y
ear, our school district changed its boundaries and we have changed to a new school. As a special goodbye, Sydney’s principal held a special assembly to recognize and say goodbye to all the kids leaving the school. I know its difficult to see, but the kids on the stage are about half of the kids that are transferring to the new school. We were way over-populated as you can tell by the number of kids leaving.
And of course, Sydney loves that I bring Sabrina to all of her school events with me so she can show off her best buddy to all of her school friends. Aren’t they are cute pair.
Its a little late, but here are some fun pictures from Sabrina’s birthday. I decided to be a little creative with her cake and put her little cupcake on just set on top without attaching the fondant so we could pull it off easy. We discovered a little too late that fondant is no fun for pictures though, because its not messy!
Although Sabrina’s little friend Shea liked eating her crumbs, so apparently it was messy enough for some.
