December birthday parties

Apparently most of the girls' friends were born in December (what a great month!) because not only were we busy with Christmas in December we were also busy with several birthday parties. I think I've said this before but people in Bakersfield don't mess around when it comes to birthdays-they go all out! I bet they die when they get invited to our house for cake and ice cream!!!
Here are some phone pics from some of the parties.

Hannah's Birthday was at American Kids. You should have seen my girls shimmy up those ropes. AMAZING!

Rylee's party was at the bowling alley.

Sadie's party was at the ice rink. First time for us and it was HARD.

I'm so glad my girls have good, fun, nice friends!

8 is GREAT!

The girls were so lucky to get Baptized on their Birthday! It was so nice for so many of our family and friends to be there. The thing that I will remember most is that when they were wet and cold and changing out of their jumpsuits they said, "I feel so warm"! I hope they remember that always.

 I LOVE how Dalton looks almost as big as Saige!

 My favorite part of the whole day was when Grandpa Dalton spoke about the Holy Ghost. He talked about meeting them for the first time in the hospital in Spokane. He talked about how small they were but that they were PERFECT. I immediately lost it when I saw how emotional it made him. It brought back so many memories and I was overwhelmed with gratitude that they are healthy with no side effects of being born so small. 

 My Grandma Williams came and it was such a fun surprise! It took a lot of effort for her to get down here and we appreciated it so much. So fun to see her. 

 The girls played, "Jesus Came to John the Baptist" on their violins. It was so special.

Happy 8th Birthday

I cannot believe my girls are 8 years old. I just love them so much and I'm so proud of them. 

Don't know what I'd do without them.

 The picture above is when the cousins slept over. They were all over the place and all over each other. 

 Shad tied the three amigo's up. These girls have SO much fun together despite their age difference.

 Birthday Breakfast!

The girls got a fun game for their birthday and we all had fun playing it: Headbands-Disney edition.

 Dalton liked it too!

Thanks to everyone for the gifts!
