Corn Maze

Some friends in our ward grew lots of corn this year and invited the kids over to play in their "maze."  The girls had so much fun running through the maze with their friends!


Can you spot Kiera? She had so much fun hiding from me!


Jade loved hiding with her friend Ellie.


They even let us take home some yummy fresh corn!

Aiden & Ellie's Birthday

Aiden turned 3 and Ellie turned 1 in August as well.  We have lots of family birthdays in this month!  In fact, Ellie was born exactly on Jade's 3rd bday!  
Here we are at their party.

"Want some too Kiera?"

Little doggies & random fun

Did you know our girls were really little doggies with their bones!? First time eating chicken with bones and they loved it!




Random fun with her new umbrella and wrapping up in the Amazon packaging!


Ready to go rollerskating!

Kiera will find any and all sunglasses at our house.  She wants to wear glasses just like her big sister!



Family Birthday Party

Later that week, we had a family birthday party for Jadee Lady too!

Jade and her Grammy.

My attempt at a Rapunzel donut tower.  Jade requested pink frosting with sprinkles...they were sure yummy but did not stand up so well!

So pleased with herself...stealing and eating a donut.:)

Cousin Jax man...just chillin' at the party.

We love that Aunt Angela is small enough to sit at the little kids' table!

Just licking the frosting off her donut...mind you that is all she does!

A few of the family and some decorations...


The food...do you see that little snitch...yah, she is mine! We love Kiera and she is not afraid to help herself when she is ready to eat. She knows what she wants!

Jade got lots of fun presents. Thanks everyone!

Grammy, Aiden and Grandpy (As Jade affectionately calls her grandparents!)

Princess Jade


Rapunzel with Pascal


Jade with Grandma and Grandpa Revelli.  She had a lot of fun with these two as they came down earlier that day and took her to lunch at Chuck E. Cheese!  What a fun date with her grandparents. Jade could not stop talking about how much fun she had!

One of her favorite gifts was her new scooter from Aunt Heidi & Uncle Michael.  She was quite a pro from the get go!  


The Day of Jade's Birthday

On Jade's actual birthday, we filled her door frame up with balloons so it they would avalanche on her when she opened the door.  Funny thing though, Ben wanted to see her face before he left for work, so he was banging on the wall, we were yelling her name, everything we could think of to get her to open that door!  Well, this little lady likes her sleep!  After about 1/2 hour of trying, we gave one last bang on the wall and heard a faint mutter of waking on the other side.  She finally peeked out and was quite surprised by what met her!



Little sister was a great helper to make the balloons staticky so they would stick to the door!


That afternoon, Jade had a small party with some of her friends.  She wanted a Rapunzel party, so everyone wore their best princess dresses. This is her and Tiana--her friend Bailey.

Lost in thought...what a happy Birthday girl!

I made the cupcakes in ice cream cones and all the kids thought they were ice cream!  You should have seen their faces and heard their reactions as they bit into their "ice cream!" Priceless!

No party of my girls is complete without cheetos and cheeto hands!

Little Miss Kiera enjoying her cake.

Painting Rapunzel's wall mural...

Making Pascal party blowers...

The birthday girl....let down your golden hair!

We played pin the frying pan on Flynn Rider.  Jade was so excited about Flynn, she still has his picture taped to her closet door!


Snow White found the cheetos early!

And she was quite a pro at pinning the pan on Flynn!

All the princesses jumping around!

Kiera, Audrey, Jade, Bailey and Ellie

The royal spread...



We also played tangle up the princess...the girls did not know what to think at first of this game, but they soon got super into wrapping each other up!





Time to unwrap presents....thanks to all Jade's friends for making her day...the BEST DAY EVER!
