Addison's Birthday Celebration....

I thought I should post a positive post today since yesterday I really didn't feel like posting anything! I am bound and determined to get caught up on the pictures if its all I do for the next 3 days!!

On Tuesday, Addison's actual birthday, of course we had a Sharks game. We couldn't miss the game. Daddy arranged for Addison's name to be on the jumbo tron. What a cool thing to have done!! I guess if you are a normal person, and we all know that the Bronwell family IS NOT normal!! Anyway I guess it costs like $150 for one line on the screen. She was pretty excited that it was on there.


It was a typical Thursday for us. Skating lessons, and then the game. Ashleigh is now in a figure skating class taught by the head of figure skating. She says she wants to play hockey, but we'll see!

Addison did the whole session without a bucket!!! She started crying because they wanted her to use one. She is doing very well as well.


After skating, we had a little birthday celebration for Addison. We decided not to have a party since she really wasn't asking for one and we don't know that many people. When our friends found out we weren't having a party, they wanted to have a party with just them and celebrate. Brenda, the mom, is amazing! She made Addison a mini cupcake cake...which she just LOVED! Such a good idea that I think I am going to do that for the girls next time they want a cake.

The birthday girl and Lindsey


Addison was so excited to open her present from Lindsey and Carter

Now come the fun pictures of us trying to get all the kids to look in the direction of the camera and smile all at the same time! Brenda and I had a blast taking these!

I love the all the different looks of each kid!!






Lindsey was so good and put everything together for us!! She's 10 and loves the girls to pieces!

Those little white sneakers.....Addison in the box!!


Addison LOVED her throne!! She sat in it and grabbed then hand held mirror and started looking at herself in it!


Lindsey just had the greatest time dressing Addison up in all the jewels from the throne. They all fit on the throne and can be worn! I love the shoe clips on Addison's ear like a high ear piercing!

It was such a good time to spend with them! They are just a great family and we love them! The girls have had more fun playing with the throne!! Addison calls herself a little queen or princess when she sits on it!

So after the party, we had to rush rush rush to the game. Since the girls ate at the party we didn't even have a chance to go downstairs before the game. We're never that late! And the bad thing...the Sharks lost! First time since February 14, 2008 that they have lost at home in regulation. We can't win them all so better to get the losing done now!

Ashleigh wanted to borrow my camera to take pictures of "people" she said! She takes after her aunt when it comes to taking pictures of herself!! This is one she took of herself and Bonnie.
