I have so much to catch up on...starting with my Rachels 7th birthday!


Rachel Ann turned 7 years old on June 6th, she had a big party that was kind of like a marathon party, and was sick for most of it! She woke up in the morning with a new zest for life and huge excitement to ride her brand (spankin) new Bratz bike. She rode it all morning, and then had to weat the new Heely's that Grandma got her for her birthday to Walmart and various other places! When it came time for her friends to come over she was all giddy, but things went down-hill afer that!

We first went to Classic fun Center, because it was raining and to cold to have the swimming party that was orignally planned. We were all having a good time for about the first hour and then there was this...

Her friends were running around and having a great time, while Rachel laid on the floor...not sure if that made her more sick or not...I imagine there are some seriously grody germs in there! At least she has great friends they kept coming over and trying to make her feel better. At this point I am thinking let's cancel the rest of the party plans and put you in bed, but of course there was no way she was going to do that and so she tried to put on a happy face, and on with the party.

We got home and had pizza, cake, presents, S'mores and the big outdoor movie tent party, before I took everyone home at nine! Does this look like someone who feels great?








Hey at least her friends had a good time right! Stay tuned I have pictures of the our awesome Cali trip coming up in the next six or months or so, at the rate that I am going!

How sad for Rachel! It looks like such a fun party, though. I'm glad you're back, I've missed you!

Poor Rachel! I remember that night she looked so sick and sad. She is such a cute girl. Welcome back to the blogging world!

Oh, but thank goodness she didn't puke all over that beautiful butterfly cake you worked so hard on!

Hi Heidi,

Rachel is getting so big and she is such a cute girl!! It just makes you realize how fast they grow up. I know Lindsay has all of a sudden turned into an official tween--she has spent hours dreaming of the ipod shuffle she wants for her birthday and downloading playlists for it.
I'm glad you are back to blogging--now I just need to hop on the bandwagon. I have a facebook account under Diana Porter if you ever want to check in on me .
Take care!!
