Party Time!!

The girls were willing to have a combined party this year and I was all for it (only planning 1 party, heck yeah!). Kendall has been talking about having an ice skating/s'mores/hot cocoa party for a while now and Taylor was cool with that idea but with her own twist. She wanted to have a princess ice skating. Easy I can make this work no problem. So we reserved the whole rink just for their party so we won't have to worry about big kids or to many adults on the ice with all of our kiddos on the ice.

So Saturday we celebrated Kendall's 7th and Taylor's 6th birthday together at the Oasis Ice Skating Rink!

Miss Kendall and me

Taylor only invited the girls since it was a "princess ice skating party" and she wanted everyone to wear pink! I told her that I couldn't ask all her friends to wear pink but that she could (which wasn't hard because literally everything in her closet in pink right now, she is quite opinionated about her clothes!). She also wanted everyone to wear a tiara, again I told her that we could "tell" everyone to wear one but she wore one almost the entire party. She marches to her own beat.

We haven't been ice skating since last year around this time so I thought I would have to really help the girls at first but Ryan and I were pleasantly surprised that they took right to ice with no problem.

All of our friends showed up, made a stop at Santa's Skate Shop to get their skates on!

And on the ice they went, some had some trouble!

Miss Caroline was having fun and being super silly!

Kendall skating around being the social butterfly she is (she comes by that naturally from her father).

We had hot cocoa there to warm everyone up!

I honestly think I took one picture the whole party but with about 30 kids and just a many adults there I was a busy bee but thank goodness Grams with there and took a million great pictures from me! Thanks Grams

A shot from the second level, it was so fun to see all the kids and parents skating around having a great time.

Carly came out to help us celebrate, we love her!

After skating we headed over to have cake

Everyone was singing to her and she wouldn't look up (she is still wearing the tiara).

Daddy and Kendall serving all our guest!

Kendall is so loving and caring and makes sure that everyone is taken care of. She has such a good heart!

Party Favors- s'mores!

I couldn't pull off s'mores at the party so we made them to go

Taylor's

After the party we were all hungry so Grams, Aunt Jennifer, Avery, and us went up stairs to Uncle Billy's for some grub!

When we got home it was PRESENT TIME

The girls did a great job taking turns opening presents so I could write down what and who for thank you notes.

I took Taylor shopping so she could pick out a present for Kendall and this is what she picked out! A Justin Bieber poster!

Kendall loved it and immediately hung it on her wall!

The whole party was super fun for the kids and the adults.

The girls loved it and had big smiles and that is all I need.

I can't believe that my babies are getting so big, I love them more than anything.
