Kiersten turned 6....

Kiersten turned 6 today. I truly can't believe it. I swear I just had her. I think it is harder for me too because she is my last, with no option to change that. She is such a funny child. She's very abrasive, sassy, hilarious, goofy, loud, loving, athletic, and colorful. She keeps us hopping. She doesn't like people to "annoy" her or get in her space. However, she can get in your personal space with no problem. This is her take on 1st grade so far....."such and such is sooo annoying, lunch and recess are the only fun things, and Math is easy." She is quite the character and you never know what she might say.

To celebrate her birthday, she chose to take a few friends to Kangaroo Zoo and then have pizza, cupcakes, and icecream afterward. It was a good group of girls and they had lots of fun. Kangaroo Zoo has lots of the big blow ups, and so the girls ran their little hearts out for a few hours and were really hungry afterwards. It was a late night. We had a hard time finding a time to have it, so we didn't start until 5:00 pm and the girls left around 9:00 pm. Good times. It was fun to see her so excited.

On Sunday, we had our traditional family BBQ. Of course she wanted RIBS and shrimp dip (a family favorite). We are so grateful to have her in our family. She is quite a character and keeps us smiling.
