The birthday party went off without a hitch. So much fun. I was feeling badly during the day that we weren't doing anything extravagant, but the girls all loved it. They're all so stinking cute. Everything I said was *the* most amazing thing they had heard. We did pizza, decorated cup cakes, painted nails, watch Twelve Dancing Princess and ate popcorn, picked out hair bows and opened presents.
For the movie I had scattered pillows all over the floor, but they insisted on sitting on the couch -- all 7 of them, plus the pillows. Then they decided that they would *all* be Genevieve. Except for Erin (she was the blue one) and Kenzie (she was the one with red hair). Then when it was time to dance, they would get off the couch and twirl around. I love little girls. Especially those little girls. Such sweeties. I would do it every Friday night if I could.
Saturday was the Primary Talent Show. Ellie drew a picture and explained to everyone that it was how she showed Jesus she loves him. There were some really cute talents! It was one of those moments when you love your calling and feel so lucky to be with the kids. They are so great. Corbin did tell a knock knock joke which sounded vaguely familiar. Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Banana eyeball. Is this a normal thing for 5 year olds to find any knock knock joke with eyeball at the end hysterical?
And for today's big news -- Nate spent the day throwing up. Poor baby. I'm sure my sister is shocked to hear he's sick since he's always soooooo healthy (Nate has the *worst* immune system). Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.
One more for Beth -- please note that Erin is doing that weird arm thing again and all the other girls are egrossed with the movie. That girl can *smell* a camera.

Sorry to hear about Nate, but the party seemed to be a smash! Carly keeps asking me, "Mom, when I'm like 16 can I FINALLY have a sleep-over." I only wish she'd really last that long!
They all look adorable!!!! What a fun party!!
and yes... all boys seem to do that with the knock knock jokes. Only insert whatever their favorite word is. I don't get it.
You are the blogging queen lately! Go Maddy!

You've now been graced with the presence of mini-Beyonce... ;) That arm pose thing is getting beyond ridiculous.
Too cute! She had a blast!
Poor Nate! LMAO at Erin "smelling" the camera!!!
