Family Party for Garen and Maddie

A few hours after Maddie's Princess party on Friday; Amber, Zeb and Levi came followed by Jann and Boyd. The kids were so excited. After dinner we played Maddie's new Disney Scene It game and Maddie's team won.

After a late night to bed, several times up with Sophie and an early morning Saturday began. Andy made a wonderful breakfast for everyone. Then Andy's grandparents got here. We made Maddie and Garen's favorite-spaghetti- for the combined birthday lunch. After lunch was presents.

Maddie received:
-a digital camera and new helmet from G&G Pugmire
-some great new markers and paper from Amber and family
-a Hannah Montana shirt and money from great G&G Pugmire
-Money from Great G&G Jardine
-Some cute jeans and shirts from G&G Young
-and a package arrived from friend Brenda, Jake and Danny with some littlest pet shop animals


Garen received (the rest of his gifts will be given on his actual birthday on Thursday):
-a new helmet, and a super fun fire truck (which was a huge hit) from G&G Pugmire
-a superman and ninja turtle monster trucks from Amber and family
-a shirt and money from Great G&G Pugmire
-and a transformer from Brenda and family

*Both the kids got a new swimming pool from Andy and I.

After presents was cake and ice cream. I got them a Madagascar 2 cake since they both love that movie!
Maddie was very excited to try out her new helmet and show everyone how she rides her bike. Garen preferred to stay in and play with his firetruck.

After everyone left, I took Maddie to Walmart and she picked out some suncatchers to paint with some of her money. And we rented some movies.

Before bed we watched Hotel for Dogs. The kids missed most of it because they were running around with their helmets on hitting each other in the head.

When the kids were in bed, Andy and I watched The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Our house is a bit of a wreck, but it was a wonderful day!


we still had all of Maddie's decorations up, so I had to add something for Garen. Garen was very upset that his name didn't have two G's in it. So I made him happy by putting two G's-
Great grandma and grandpa came from Bear Lake-

I love that they were running around hitting heads. I can totally picture it. It was so good to see you all. Levi had so much fun. Thanks for the great weekend.
