Quinn is 8 on the 8th

We had a family celebration on Friday.  Quinn, (cousin) Zane, (cousin) Lyndzy and Sloane had a fun time trying to blow out the candles.  They were the ones that went out and then when you think you're done, they light back up.  Everyone joined in.  It was hilarious! 

Then today, we celebrated with Quinn's friends in our pool.  This is only some of the kids.  I couldn't corral them all at the same time for a group picture.  There are a few that were inside playing the Wii.  But that's OK, there was plenty of fun to be had.  Happy Birthday, Quinn!

Today was one of those really GREAT days.  The kids ALL got along.  There was no bickering.  All I heard was laughter and saw smiles today.  This morning we went to Goodwill to find the kids some shorts for summer.  They were all very excited about what they picked out.  It was fun to be able to say "yes" to whatever they wanted since the prices are VERY reasonable.  I love being able to say YES.  It feels so good.  Then this evening we went to Lyndzy's last choral presentation for the year.  They were GREAT!  And so cute.  While we were waiting for the show to start, Quinn and Zane had fun taking pictures, entertaining themselves.

Here is a picture of the group singing.  Quinn took the pictures with my phone, so they are fuzzy and you can't see Lyndzy.  But there they are.  It was a great presentation.
