Miss Kassandra's 9th Birthday

Yep. She turned 9 today! Wowza.

And.... no birthday would be complete without presents and cake, so here's the pictures of both!

Here she is in the outfit and with the flowers

Grandma Shawna and Grandpa Dennis got her.

New Littlest Pet Shop creatures! Her favorite.

Just what she asked for, a new Bobby Jack bed set.

Isn't she excited! This is how it looks on the bed.

And then came the big one.....

A new bike!!!! She'd been dying for one!

Look at her go!

With her favorite new pet.

And then came more Littlest Pet Shop creatures!

The boys got them for her.

Here is her awesome cake. Ice cream cake, that is.

And blowing out the candles on another great birthday!

First Day of School 2010

Yep, the time has come once again to start another school year. 6th, 3rd and 1st are the flavors this year. I love this time of year, and hate this time of year. I love it because the kids get to go back, start anew, and learn. I hate it because I have to get up early, send them off (meaning less time with them) and all the little nuances that I don't have to deal with (that sounds bad) during the summer.

Anyways, check out the images I captured on this, their first day of school 2010.

Goofing around, let me just take the picture! We're gonna be late! :o)

Awww, they're saying "I love you, Mom" while I take the picture.

My big 6th grader!

My big 3rd grader!

And my big 1st grader!

Here's to a great 2010-2011 school year!
