Claire turns 4!!!

We can't believe Claire is 4!!! She has been SO excited for weeks for her birthday. Oh my gosh, she talked about it all the time. She wants unicorn cupcakes, rainbow streamers, and donuts and to play games and have a "fun day." We hope she had a great birthday as we tried to do everything she was wishing for! She is such a fun and cute girl. Her curly hair is so adorable! She loves unicorns and rainbows and ponies and twirl dresses, but also loves to ride bikes, blow bubbles, run outside, hold bugs and lizards, and go to the park. She is very social and has been really missing her friends with the pandemic. We were so sad we couldn't do a friend party this year....it would have been so fun! We can't wait until it's all done and she can be back hugging all her friends! 

We had a really fun day with gifts, unicorn cupcakes, rainbow streamers, and lots of game playing, inside and outside. We even did a unicorn pinata! We thought she'd not want to hit it, but oh no, she really wanted the candy inside and though hitting it while Dad moved it was so much fun. She's so happy and says the cutest things and is always sharing and is such a good sister and friend. We can't believe she's getting so big! Hope you had a very happy birthday Claire!

Grant turns 14!

 August is a big month for us! School starting and 2 birthdays! We started school online and we're finally getting the hang of it. It's been a learning curve for sure, but we can do hard things! We had a blast celebrating Grant turning 14. Crazy how fast time flies! He's so tall and fun, so kind and good with everyone in our family. He likes basketball, nerf guns, and riding his bike. He is very social and loves to hang out with friends and family. He of course loves video games too! We are so grateful for him and love that he's in our family. 

Our usual tradition is chuck-e-cheese but with the pandemic, we couldn't go. So we made our own arcade right here in our house. It turned out so fun! We got every device we could think of and put one game on it. We then had tickets and you got one ticket for playing the game and another for wining. And then you could turn the tickets in at the end for prizes. Grant said it was great and we had a really fun time! We also ate shrimp and cheeseburgers, and watched a movie that night. We had such a fun day celebrating.







































Happy happy birthday Grant!
