Kadence's Birthday!

Excuse me while I pick myself up off the floor, realizing that our little baby will be five years old Sunday.  It's mind boggling.  We are so, so very grateful for our Kadence.  She is so sweet, caring, loving, fun and we cannot imagine life without her. 

We've been celebrating all week!  Thursday night, we went to Pirate Island as a family (a local children's place with a, you guessed it, pirate motif).  It's not the most kid-friendly place for little ones, but we had a fun time.

Kadence having a ball!

It didn't take Stockton long to get the hang of these rides...gearing him up for Disneyland!

Arrggghhh ye matey!  We love our Tayah too...

Friday was Kadence's birthday party with all her cute friends.  Eight three-five year-old olds = a lot of giggling, dancing, playing, hugging, and laughing.  So much fun!  Stockton was astounded by all the femaleness here.  I told him he'd one day enjoy it in this neighborhood (where the female to male ratio is rather stilted!). 

The obligatory silly shot!

And lastly, Elizabeth's masterpiece of a cake...a butterfly as our sweet girl requested.  We love you Kadence!
