The little girl turns 6!

It is hard to believe that six years ago.. she made her debut into the world! She has been a constant blessing in my life! Kody Marie, is an explosive bundle of joy and sassy-girl power!  We kept things simple, really simple this year for her birthday.  Here are some photos from her birthday dinner with her best friends, Zoe and Marissa. 


The Pirate Treasure Chest and the birthday girl!

She was thrilled with every gift she was given!

"..because I am 6!"
 

Blowing out her candle.."the number 6 duh?!"
Me and Kody (and Evergreen Forest too!)
 
Can't forget Sarah, (our pet rat, YES I SAID RAT!)
 
 
It was a nice day.  She was able to bring cupcakes into her classroom to share.  And, happily, her birthday was the last day of school before Thanksgiving Break... which I guess the school district planned it that way to make her special day even MORE AWESOME!!  lol.

Camp Prostrollo Weekends!

I am very happy to report that for the last two weekends I have been blessed to spend it up at our family friends home about an hour north.  They live on a boy scout camp..and while we don't get to ride around on any of the golf carts or use the equipment.. it sure is peaceful out there! Plus we get to see our "peeps!" 

The weekend before Halloween we were pleased to be able to watch our friend's son in law be transformed into Frankenstien. Yes, He is that tall. He stands a "short" 6 ft 11 inches. He is a monster. haha!

 While we were waiting for night to fall and the Haunted Trail to be prepared... we hung out at Camp Prostrollo.  Another family friend came down, the Stock Family.  It was so fun to see them!

Peter-Leo and Jonny. Best Bug Buddies!!
Peter-Leo was extremely excited to see his best bud, Jonny.  This two were best friends when we all lived in Hinesville, but our families had more away from there.  We are now happy to say Camp Prostrollo is the mid-way point between us!

The following weekend, The Prostrollo's daughter Erin was being honored at their football game.  All the graduating seniors who took part in sports were escorted by their parents and announced to the crowd. It was a nice honor for them.  The next morning we all got up early (ok, so Erin and I didn't get up early) to celebrate the day with Tia and Roger as they were sealed in temple for all time and eternity! They are a forever family! Yay!

Prostrollos! GO Erin!!

The happy little family.
All in all the last two weekends were such stress relievers! I love CAMP PROSTROLLO!!  Someday I will create a camp theme song about Camp Prostrollo!  Someday...
