Today is all about....MEYSA! She turned 6 years old. It was pretty exciting for her and to top that off, Mom and Dad are coming home. She was one pretty excited girl! Having a birthday is always special and I did my best to make it fun for her. Here she is, right out of bed!
Of course Lauryn wasn't to be denied her picture either! I have to admit, it was fun taking her picture as she didn't mind smiling!!!
Remember those tie-dye shirts? The kids were really excited to wear them and we were organized enough to get pictures BEFORE school! I have this figured out, just in time for the parents to return home...go figure!!!
Cute kids and I won't let anyone tell me differently! I love these grandkids and feel so very, very blessed in my life to have them!
Meysa on her way to school!
Meysa after school...she had a very special birthday at school.
Now I used to make cakes all the time for the boys when they were growing up and it has been literally 15 years since I made and decorated a cake. Meysa wanted a horse cake and with the help of Aimee's cookbook on how to make cakes, I managed to come up with a pretty good looking horse, if I do say so myself!
Nana and Papa joined us for Subway sandwiches for dinner along with cake and ice cream. I know it wasn't the same as having Mom and Dad home, but Meysa really did have a great time!
Nana and Meysa
Nana helped out with Wyatt and he actually took to her quite well. He was a pretty happy boy with all the commotion birthdays bring.
It came time for presents and as Meysa said, the best part! Greg and I gave her a cowgirl jean jacket...she loves horses!
What can make a girl happier? Money and horses!
Then it was time for the cake! It tasted really good and there were even two pieces left over for Ryan and Aimee to enjoy! Hope your day was happy, Meysa!
