Ira's Birth Day!!!

My sweet sweet little girl turned SIX!!!!


She had been sick the whole day before, but woke up feeling good!

Ira has been such a force in my life. She has taught me how to see the good in everything, and how to be more sensitive.

She is almost always happy to see anyone and never runs down a race or opportunity to play.

Her lust for life is awe inspiring.

We started off the day with presents! Isn't daddy's wrapping job superb?!


Then we made a cake. Due to elevation and poor planning on my part- it exploded.

A little creative cutting and it was at least in the shape o a unicorn.... Kinda.


Ira and her BFF L decorated it themselves with only a little help.

I think it's perfect!


All the kids needed matching pigtails....








The plan was a park birthday. But Colorado had other plans, it stormed! So we ran to target and made do with random indoor party games.

Create your own tail...


Pin the donkey...





Unicorn coloring & sticker books...





Piñata....


Princess hats...





Piñata loot....





it was perfect.


Such a sweet day for a sweet girl. :)

RAIN!!!!

We woke up to a rainy rainy day!

















We went for a walk to splash in puddles! It was so incredible. I was watching Ira run through the rain, arms outstretched, singing. It was midday on a weekday.

I love being home with them, and having them free to see a storm and chase it. Not just stare out the window while ignoring their teacher.





I even jumped in some puddles...





We saw some new babies too...
