The balloon says it all.

One of Paige's teachers chose her as Student of the Year. She was really surprised. But mostly surprised because of what class it was in... math. Her least favorite subject. Paige also got an award for A/B honor roll.
Good job Paigee!!!
You are a great example to your little sisters and brother and all your hundreds of little cousins. :)

This girl...

...is getting a BIG award at school tomorrow!!! One of her teachers just called me. I can't tell you what it is yet, because Paige doesn't know yet. All she knows is that she needs to dress up in the morning. She's a smart girl, and she knows that there is an awards ceremony tomorrow, so she has figured out that she's probably getting some kind of award. But, she doesn't know how HUGE it is. And she doesn't know that this Mama is dying to tell her, so that we can do the happy/proud dance together! YAY!!! I can't wait 'til tomorrow morning!!!

Look at the spider!

I asked the kids if they could see the little spider on my camera. :) That was the only way I could get them to slow down enough so that I could get a picture of them looking at me. It kind of worked. They all got so serious looking for that spider, that they lost their smiles. Oh well, I think they still turned out pretty cute.

House Party! Kraft Foods Taste of Summer

I was chosen to host another party from houseparty.com. We all had so much fun at the last one for DiGiorno Pizza, so I thought I would apply for another one. Yay! I got it! This is going to be a good one too. We are going to be trying out lots of new stuff from Kraft. Look at all this stuff they sent me:

beach balls, Frisbees, reusable bags, an apron, Crackerfuls, Homestyle macaroni and cheese, Kool-Aid Fun Fizz..... plus a coupon booklet for me to pick up some more products from the store for FREE! I'll be getting Kraft's 100 calorie packs of cheese bites, Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh meats, and more DiGiorno Pizza and Breadsticks. This is going to be a yummy party! Oh, and of course I have more coupons for my guests.

You all need to go here and sign up so you can start hosting your own parties.

Funnest Party Ever!

Livee had a very "fancy" birthday party. Her friends came over all dressed up and were seated at a really nice restaurant. Their waitress was very patient while taking orders. :)
After the fancy feast, the girls got to make bracelets. One for themselves and one for Livee. They also had their fingernails painted.
Next we went outside for a very fancy photo shoot.
Back inside, the girls played "put the make-up on the princess."
They really had fun with this game!
Unfortunately, we did not find a future make-up artist in the bunch.
After Liv got cleaned up, she got to open presents, and they all had some yummy pazookie.


Perfect "fancy" party for our perfect "fancy" little girl!
