4th and 5th

I was tagged by Angie and Charlie in a new tag game. It's pretty funny, and totally random. You post the 4th pictures from your 4th folder and your 5th picture from your 5th folder.

Both of these pictures were taken in March of 2005.
Above:Mike and Kendra at Easter time. She was 2 years old.
Below: Marty and Renee on a ski trip we took together...great memories!

And, I am not tagging anyone, because I'm not sure who hasn't been! If you haven't been tagged, then you are it!

Happy Birthday!

We had a birthday party for Kendra after church today with family. We had her menu of choice-lasagna, salad, and french bread, played, visited, opened presents, and had a yummy cake that Grandma Margaret made. It was a fun time. I got my pictures all loaded out of order, but they are here. :)

My beautiful birthday girl and me.

Kendra and her Barbie cake.

Collin thought her new trash can was fun for other things, like drumming.....

And wearing on his head....and I didn't get a picture of the other thing he was doing with it. (Let's just say he knows what we use when the stomach virus is visiting our house!)

Ashton and Collin playing with the train set.

All the things little girls love....Polly Pocket, baby dolls, new clothes...

When she was sick, she was talking about missing her party, and I told her there is always another day. She said "Well, Mom, one thing is for SURE...I will still be 6!" And so she is....Happy 6th Birthday, Kendra Ann!

My Angel

This morning was our Church Christmas program, "Christmas in Reverse". Kendra was an angel. She said "His name shall be called Immanuel, which means God is with us". I was so happy that she was feeling better so she could be in it.

Party Day

Today was supposed to be a day full of events, one of which was Kendra's birthday party with some friends, but our day was changed when she woke up not feeling well. She slept all morning, but seems to be doing good now. Hopefully she is feeling good for her real birthday tomorrow! Doesn't seem possible...6 years old already. Anyway, here is a picture of the yummy mini cupcakes I made for the party that didn't happen. So, I may have to make another batch...wouldn't that be a shame. :)

My Big Boy!

We are excited at the Bley household this morning....Collin went for the first time on the potty! M&Ms are a great bribe. :) He is going around saying "Big Boy, yep!" So cute....now, if he will just continue!

Gingerbread House

I had to work yesterday, but was able to get off for an hour to go help Kendra make a gingerbread house at school. We had a lot of fun doing it, and Collin loves to pick the candy off and eat it! :)

School Program

Kendra's school Christmas program was last night. We had fun watching her and all the other kids. I was proud of her. :) Thank you, Renee, for taking these pictures for me!
