Birthday Girl!

Claire picked out a 'Puppy Surprise' for her sister,
which Stella loves!

Stella is 7!  Her birthday was mid-week, but we celebrated over the weekend, so it felt like the birthday that kept on giving!











These are some twinsies shirts daddy bought the girls for Christmas.

QT's!

Every morning, before they leave for school, he tells them to "be awesome today".  These shirts are super hero themed and say just that.  He couldn't resist.   

For Stella's birthday celebration we took a trip out of town to the Great Escape Lodge and Indoor Water Park.  It was such a wonderful weekend.  We opted for a Klub Moose room, which had a playhouse with bunk bed built right into the room.  The kids had a separate area to play and sleep.  It was awesome, for all of us!

In addition to the indoor water park fun, we took advantage of some of the other activities happening at the resort: candy bingo, sand art, painting with Frankie the Fox, a dance party in the lobby with Oakley the Bear, story-time with Scooby before bedtime, and a visit to the arcade.  This was a great winter getaway for us and an awesome way to celebrate Stella's good health, growth, and happiness!
