Camryn and Aunt KK

Looking at the crab Daddy caught and ate!

Camryn had her ocean water face perfected by the end of the week!

We went to Destin, Florida May 30-June 6 and had a BLAST! We stayed at the Beach Resort and it was so nice. Kelsey went with us and was a huge help. Todd and I were even able to have a date night! The kids had never seen the ocean before and loved it. By the end of the week Camryn had her ocean water face perfected. The water reminded me of when we were in the Caribbean for our honeymoon. It was so clear and had no seaweed or jellyfish! It rained a little while for one day but other than that the weather was beautiful. The girls loved playing in the sand, finding seashells, looking for crabs at night with flashlights, jumping the waves (Camryn) and riding the waves (Kennedy), swimming in our awesome condo pool, and playing on the top bunk bed. Our last night we went to the Villages of Bay Town Wharf in Sandestin. It was so much fun and reminded me of Downtown Disney. We will definitely go back! The girls Euro jumped and loved it. I was afraid Camryn would get scared and wouldn't do it but she had the biggest grin on her face. Kennedy was jumping higher than the trees and was even able to do a few flips in the air. They are so adventurous! Our vacation could not have been better and I am so glad we have these memories. I can't wait until the next one!

Happy 5th Birthday Kennedy!

Kennedy turned 5 on May 24th. After church we went to Gram and Poppy's for her very own birthday lunch that she ordered...lasagna, pinto beans, cornbread and strawberry cake. I told her that lasagna, pinto beans, and cornbread don't really go together and she said, "That's OK, when it's your birthday you can have whatever you want." So she did!

Kennedy and Camryn's Birthday Party

We had Kennedy and Camryn's 3rd and 5th birthday party on Saturday May 23rd at our house...a princess tea party and "the real Cinderella from Disney World came." This was by far our best birthday party yet. Everything was perfect and the girls were so excited when Cinderella rang our doorbell. All the princesses came dressed up in their fanciest princess dress and after the tea party (crown shaped peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, Oreo truffles, frozen sugar grapes, chocolate dipped strawberries, princess cookies, cupcakes, and of course tea!) Cinderella helped give the girls makeovers and manicures for the fashion show. Cinderella read the girls a story and then they decorated tea hats with flowers. Thank you everyone for coming and for all the fun gifts!

Happy 3rd Birthday Camryn!

Camryn turned 3 on May16 and we had such a good day celebrating with her! For lunch we went to one of her favorite places...Sakura for Japanese. They sang Happy Birthday to her and didn't hear "Camryn" so they sang to "Shannon." She thought that was too funny! We went to Gram and Poppy's for dinner - grilled cheeseburgers (another one of her favs!) and chocolate cake with cream cheese icing. Gram and Poppy fixed her up with new dress up clothes and 4 pairs of dress up shoes. She is too cute prancing around in them. I can't believe our baby is 3!!! Kennedy's birthday is one week later so we gave them their gift together on Camryn's birthday...a trampoline! They are having so much fun with it!
