Rosie's Birthday Fun

Rosie couldn't wait until her birthday finally arrived. She was so excited to open presents and be FOUR!


I let her open her birthday cereal box before the rest, so she could have it for breakfast. (Fruit Lucky Charms, with a UNICORN on it!) She graciously gave each of her brothers a bowl too.

She LOVED the cake decorating toy.



And the Polly Pockets!


And she loved the new hammer that Daddy gave her. It has flowers on it. And you can take it apart and get 4 different screwdrivers out of it. She had fun with this for quite a while.



Couldn't get an in-focus photo of this activity...she was moving too fast! But she loved her new fairy and pegasus.


We had a voucher for an indoor play place so we were able to go here for free! The kids had a great time. We were basically the only family there, which turned out to be great because they all played together, which is just as Rosie prefers it.













This thing was fun...it slowly turns upside down, and you have to be really strong not to fall down.















The Saturday following Rosie's birthday, we got a babysitter for Eddie and Rex and Seth and I took her out to lunch and to go shopping for a birthday dress.  We went to The Olive Garden, where Rosie got macaroni and cheese (her favorite!).  Then we went to Costco, TJ Maxx, and Ross to find her perfect birthday dress. She wore it yesterday to church and was adorable. But that's mostly just the girl, haha.



Here's Seth carrying Rosie, walking from Costco, to TJ Maxx.  She looked so pretty and comfy in her Daddy's arms. 

And here's the dress she chose. The glitter coming off of it got everywhere. But she looked so cute in it on Sunday.

Christmas Music!

I love December! So much beautiful music. And fun music too!


Here's Rosie singing the "A Million Dreams" reprise from the Greatest Showman at our co-op talent show.

And Eddie doing his two acts:








And here's Eddie learning his new song on the piano this morning:





And practicing solfege







I am going to get to perform with some other musicians in my ward for our program at church- here's our rehearsal:




December has so much music!! I had 4 rehearsals yesterday. But I love it. And I hope the kids grow up loving music too.
