Easter 2006!
Dylan's 4th Birthday

Makinze insisted on wearing a dress--I tried to talk her into capris & tennis shoes for the sports themed party...but no, she wanted to look "cutie"! She did a great job in the sports obstacle course. First she ran and slid down the slide, shot & made a basket, kicked a soccer goal, kicked a football goal & finally back to the finish line! Here she is at the start with Tommy, Dylan's daddy!

Bowling Birthday!
Makinze's celebrated her 4th Birthday at the bowling alley in Cushing! We had a great time. Bowling was such a great party--all ages were able to enjoy the fun. We are so blessed to have such great friends and family. Our little "fool" enjoyed her afternoon fun! Here is a picture of Hunter helping her out. She got a little tired and Hunter was a great encourager! 


Maguire had a "kicking" good time bowling! Of all of the bowlers...I would say that she was the most excited. She would run up to me after each frame and tell me that she won! I loved it!

Maguire & Makinze. They have been friends since they were babies. Notice Mak's cute My Little Pony T-shirt! This was the only picture I think was taken showing that it says, "Happy 4th Birthday Makinze!" (Thanks Shannon!) Also--check out the cool bowling shoes!

I know it doesn't look like present chaos but it was... Poor Holly was writing like a mad woman to keep up with Mak & Friends tearing open presents!
Making Cake

Makinze helped a lot this year with her birthday cake. She did a great job mixing the icing and cake! When I was a child my Grandma Francille ALWAYS made our birthday cakes. They were so beautiful and tasted absolutely wonderful. A great thing I remember is getting to help decorate the cake. Thanks Grandma for passing on this love...although mine aren't as pretty as her cakes...it still is fun! I hope that Mak enjoys this as much as I do!

Mak strategically placed the ponies on her cake! I was surprised to see that she did alternate colors.

Our last full day was spent at the Wax Musuem, another stop at Pete Za's pizza to play mini-glow in the dark golf!, The magic show (Really cool--forgot his name though), a great dinner at Landry's & the Baldnobbers! Making Memories with our family...here are some pics!
I am so blessed to have such a fabulous family! Thanks Dad for the memories...we had a great time and can't wait until we get to spend more quality time with Grandpa!

Showboat Branson Belle



On the evening of Day two we road on the Showboat! It was really beautiful & a super experience. Makinze especially enjoyed the ventriloquist, Todd Oliver & his talking dogs. Here are pictures of the boat, Mak petting the dog, and Mak & Huston!
