Sydni's 6th Birthday Party

Sydni's birthday is May 29th, which usually means is falls either on, or extremely close to Memorial Day weekend. That wasn't a problem when she was a baby, because our family was all that mattered when it came to birthday party attendance. Now that she's in school, having your buddies at the party is a big deal! Donnie and I decided that the weekend before her BD would probably not conflict with family vacations and other Memorial Day weekend plans like her actual birthday. Our hunch was correct, because this year was her biggest party yet! She had so much fun with her cousins and many, many friends that were able to attend! The Splash Zone area was packed and her cake, ice cream and presents was also equally fun, because we were able to have it in the Kids Zone party room. There was TONS of playing going on, in addition to iCarly cake, Blue Bell ice cream cups, and loads of great presents! Sydni and her cousin, Karson
Aunt Hayli and cousin Brenner...he had a ball at the pool!

I still can't believe she's SIX. WOW!
Tons of gifts, and tons of helpers!
I had to come over and push the tide of helping hands back from Sydni's gifts! Ha!
Thanks for her many gifts, friends and family!
Lots of fun craft projects! We have all summer to do them. Yippeee!
Makki even opened a few gifts from Granny Mar and Ashlee. We have to keep our boss man happy, too! Ha!

Happy Birthday to You! Cha-Cha-Cha, Cumbaya, Huuah!

Sydni fits right in with her class full of friends. This song is just a little sampling of why her Kindergarten teacher needs a HUGE pay raise! ;)

Mak and B Splashing at Body Works

Mak and Brenner were splashing away at one another, but I only caught the tail end of the war! They were both making faces that didn't look like they were "play splashing", and the intensity of it is what was funny!
