Kelsey's 10th Multi-Birthday Party

Kelsey ended up with 3 parties this year! School starts about one week before her birthday, and things start to get so hectic that we usually let the friend party "slide". She is ALwAyS wanting to have a swim party, so this year, we let her have a few friends over to swim and "celebrate" her birthday a little early.

Ashlynd, Kelsey, and Taelor

The girls thought it would just be hilarious if they went head first into the whipped cream on their plates.

Silly girls! They had a blast....

Thanks for coming over to party Ash and Tae! You girls are just too cute!

Kelsey's AcTuAL birthday was two days after my surgery, and I wasn't feeling up to doing too much. However, I wanted her to still feel special on her day. My parents and sweet friends, Rhonda and Jeff came out to the house and we had dinner.

The one thing she's been wanting for quite some time was a BB gun. And yes, this all made me think of the movie "Christmas Story" and the whole "you'll shoot your eye out!" Well, she sweet talked Grandpa (it doesn't take much with my girls), and he surprised her with a BB gun. (With a long list of rules, of course!)

Thanks so much for bringing a cake Mom! (Especially from Roger's Bakery... YUM!) About one week later, we had everyone out for a big birthday BBQ bash. By this time, the THIRD time, Kels was loving it!

Kelsey, I hope you know how special you are to us and how much we love you! Keep smiling and always be yourself. Your sweet spirit, loving personality and love of life is such a blessing to your family. We hope you had a FABULOUS birthday!On a side note, we had a visit with Kelsey's doctor at Primary, and things appear to be going really well. Her doctor has moved her from 3 month checks to a 6 month check up. It was very exciting news for us, and Kelsey was just thrilled!
