Our Funny Little 'Bunny' is 5!!

It is unbelievable how fast kids grow up! Bunny, our second, just celebrated her fifth birthday! (Please forgive the smudgy pics)

Holly and her friends enjoyed scarf dancing during her party. We crank up the music and they boogie. It's always a crowd pleaser!



Before the party, the girls helped me make grape, olive and cheddar cheese kabobs to feed the masses. (masses= 18 kids)


It seems like it was a hit..with everyone happy at the end.

Bunny enjoyed decorating her castle cake with her Princess Pollies.

Isn't she sweet-cheeked and adorable?!


Words can't describe how lucky I feel to have this sweet girl in our family. She's one of the kindest, most compassionate people I know. She reminds me daily of how to share, how to forgive and how to enjoy life and have a good laugh at least 4 or 5 times daily.

When I took her shopping, she picked a gift that she could share with her sisters. When's the last time I did that?! Happy birthday, my darling girl!!


By the way, here are some of the latest 'Funny Bunny-isms' that have been making us giggle...

**(Announcing to anyone who asks her about her mommy's pregnancy) "My Mommy is having another girl...and it's my Daddy's fault!"

**(We were bird-sitting, Sherbet the Canary for a friend and she was watching him in his cage) "Momma, why don't birds in this neighborhood fly down and sit on your finger like the 'regulary' ones in the movies?" (She had just finished watching Snow White"

**(to her pediatrician, Sunday School class and again, anyone who will listen) "My Momma's has four favorite freckles. [Sunshine's] is under her nose, mine is on my neck, [Button Nose's] is on her ankle and my Daddy's is on his bum." (I guess I can't blame her solely for this one. I ought to pipe down about her Daddy's freckles that can't be seen by the public)--I must add the disclaimer that she's never seen it either!

What a fabulous party! I love all the funny things that your girls say. Just makes me laugh. And is that a hint of a belly that I see on you missy?! You look radiant!

I can't believe that it has been 5 years already! The first time I met you, she was still in your belly! Bunny will always have a special place in our hearts because she is the reason that Jarrod decided that he wanted to have another child! We just adore her; I have so many cute pictures of her from our wedding! Happy birthday Bunny!

How stinkin cute! It will be so much fun getting the kids together OFTEN to play. Can you believe we'll have kindergarteners? And NOT for the first time.

Trishelle, You have such beautiful girls. I always wanted girls. I would love to spoil them and be all "girly" with them. Instead I get to do scouts, fishing and sports.... oh well. I love Colton and am glad for him!
