Happy Happy Birthday!

About a month ago, this little girl went and had a birthday and turned SIX years old.   It was a pretty exciting day from sun up to sun down we celebrated.  It started with birthday pancakes, her favorite.  Getting a birthday book written by all the kids in her kindergarten class.  Taking treats to share with her class.   Rylie just getting home from school!
 Mom, Dad, and Bode had a big suprise for her when she got home...
 Look at the LOVE these two have for each other.
She was so excited for her new barbie house. 


Then came the wild celebration, she had a few friends from school over to celebrate!  It was a Barbie POPSTAR birthday party.  They watched part of Barbie popstar movie while eating popcorn, corn pop, gummy microphones, pop rocks and drinking pop.  Made friendship necklaces because they are all best friends! Opened presents.


Princess popstar microphone cupcakes and icecream! 
 The girls started off a little shy about their singing/ dancing and performing with their popstar microphones.  THEN...  check out the next photo, they got into being popstars!!  It was the cutest thing ever.  What a fun group of girls and what a fun birthday party. 

 Grandpa and Grandma Beckstead, Grandpa and Grandma Smith came down that night for Rylie's favorite - Taco Salad.  More presents, more spoiled for her special day! 

Happy Birthday Rylie! 
Mom and Dad are so proud of the sweet girl you are.  We love you so much!

a day at the Beckstead's!

A day at the Beckstead's!  Bode playing with tractors, his favorite thing!   He loves playing with mom until Rylie comes home from school, but really LOVES playing with Rylie. 
I was looking at pictures on the camera and Bode wanted me to take his picture and pictures of all his tractors.  He got wranglers at Christmas to go with his new boots.  I was trying to get a shot of his backside and then he thought he was so funny, dancing his back end for me. 

 
The pictures don't do it justice!




 



Mom and Bode!
 
Two silly kids!

 
 Rylie loves school and is learning SO much!  I love having her home at noon though! 
She is such a sweet girl and fun girl to have around.
