~Taylor's 9th Birthday Party~

Every year we always have Taylor's party at the Rockwood Community Center. Taylor loves to swim so it works out perfect. We all had a great time. This is the first year that I have ever made her cake, or I guess you could say cupcakes. But Jessica had give me a recipe for homemade butter cream icing had it is very good. So I decided I was going to make them this year and I thought that they turned pretty cute. I had made a cupcake tier for her cake then bought cupcake holders from the bakery for the rest. I made eighty cupcakes that day. Back to the party, it wouldn't have been one if Jeremy Hicks didn't push someone in. Jessica and I was the lucky girls this year that got it. After singing to Taylor, the kids decided to get into a food fight. There was pizza, chips, and cupcakes everywhere and on everyone. I guess you could say it turned to be a pretty exciting party.

Aubrey had to smash a cupcake in Taylor's face:)

Now you see who started the food fight.

I can't believe that my little girl is nine. She is growing up so fast.

Sorry for all the pics, you can never have to many.

~SLEEPOVER~

The night before Taylor's birthday party, we had a sleepover. We all had a blast, including myself. Aubrey and Hayden headed to Knoxville to find something to do, cause Hayden said he was not staying there with a bunch of GIRLS... I turned the den downstairs into a dance floor. The den does not have any windows so therefore it was dark. Jessica and I had hung a disco ball from the ceiling to turn the den into a dance room. We had so much fun dancing and singing karaoke. Later we watched, of course, Miley Cyrus in concert. But let me tell you that we had danced all night to the new Miley Cyrus CD that Taylor had bought at Walmart earlier that day just for the sleepover. Before the girls laid down we done a little twister. I laughed so hard at those girls. It reminded me of going to sleepovers when I was a kid. Of course that night I did act like a kid again.

Here are the girls dancing. It really was fun:)

Getting ready to watch the 3-D concert....

The girls actually sat still for about thirty minutes.

And here we go. These pics are so funny:)




This one I must say is my favorite!



Tatum, Kara, Katie, Kassie, Brandy, Taylor, Michaela, Brittany.


After discussing where they was going to sleep, they finally got settled in.


Rudy even said he was sleeping with the girls.

Of course when Aubrey and Hayden got home, he had to join the fun. Brittany got to be the lucky girl Hayden slept by. Taylor gets so mad at Kassie and Hayden for always wanting to be right there with her. But I keep telling her she is the BIG SISTER and they look up to her.

GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!!!!

The Karate Kid...

A couple of weeks ago Hayden started back taking karate. He has took this class before when he was four, after a couple of months he was over it. But know that he is older he loves it. Him and his daddy love to wrestle. While we was at the beach he watched The Karate Kid and I think that kind of made him want to try it again. But of course his favorite is baseball and basketball, but he seems to really like it. I love to watch him take class, he is so funny cause he really gets into it.

Here he is practicing on Josh. Poor Josh, cause Hayden was hitting him as hard as he could, which I know that Hayden was not going to hurt him by any means. But watching him hit on another kid was hard for me after always telling him not to hit anyone.

Here Hayden is with Master McCullough. It was so funny, Hayden would take off running and just dive at him. I was trying not to laugh, but I couldn't help not to. Aubrey lets Hayden get really rough with him, so when he got to wrestle with Master McCullough he didn't hold back. Of course the classes that he takes know are alot different than before, and he seems to pay more attention to whats going on.
