April 9th, 27th Day of Quarantine, Day 7 of Spring Break

The expected high today was 44F.  This was miserably cold after our 2 days of lovely sunshine.  The weather was all over the place today.  Showers kept passing through, of rain, snow, hail and graupel!

Emily was the first one awake this morning, but as the twins woke up we sang happy birthday.  I had Emily help them open the matching dresses first, so that they could wear them the whole day!  Then, I asked if they wanted to eat their birthday cake, for breakfast?  It was a unanimous yes. = )

The inside of Alice's cake design!

We opened presents right after cake, and they had a good time opening them (and so did the bigger kids.)

They spent a lot of time at the table enjoying the new toys. = )

Aunt Rocky called over with a new gift for them too, a Disney+ subscription!

First pick: Frozen II.

I spent the movie time making masks for the remaining members of our family who were without, plus one for Sarah, and one to mail to a friend.

I forgot to take a 'finished' picture, and I'd already sealed off the one for the mail. I had to pull out the rest of them from where they will live for a while.

Grace and Juliet each took a turn Zooming with their friends (two separate calls, of course. lol)  

For dinner, we were going to eat take out from the Ice Cream Shop, but when I got online to look up their menu, I found that they closed at 3pm today, and will be closing up for the next few weeks. = (

So, plan B, I went up to Wendy's and everyone got a frosty instead of ice cream.  It didn't meet with the ideal in my head, but the twins didn't seem to mind. = )

I watched 3 or 4 episodes of Kim Possible with Grace, and now the kids are watching the original Frozen.

Hopefully the twins had a great day, they were asking when they get to have their party (which we still do not have any sort of timeline on.)

And the weather for the next 10 days looks just miserably cold.  I'm really ready to be warm again.

William's 6th Birthday

On Sunday William officially turned 6!  We came home, had a snack, and then William got to open a few more gifts.

They also played with his new paw patrol toys from his party.  I don't know why, but these toys entertain all 5 of my children simultaneously, which is just phenomenal.  They are right up there with Legos and Playdoh!

After dinner, we finally were able to get a cake with burning candles for William!

I think he had a very special birthday!  On Monday he brought some Scooby Doo cookies to share with this friends. = )

Happy Birthday William!

William's 6th Birthday Party

William wanted to have his birthday party at the bowling alley again this year, so we sent out some Scooby Doo bowling invitations for his special day.

He had lots of friends show up this year, Vivi (and her siblings, one of whom is in Emily's class, and another in Alice's!) and her twin, Nick (from William's class last year) and his brother, Jordan, Bryce, and Aby and her sister (who is also in Emily's class.)  Needless to say, everyone had a fun time!

They had two lanes of bowling going on, but there was still a little bit of wait time.  The pizza was a big hit, and we let them eat while the game was going to help break things up.

They all did really well taking turns though.

After bowling, it was time to sing happy birthday.  I forgot to pack the candles = (  So he didn't have fire while we sang to him.

Cake was fairly quick, and so William had time to open his presents at the bowling alley!

This was the best picture I managed of William and Vivi, though they spent quite a bit of time together.

It was so much fun to have everyone out to celebrate our boy!  He had a fun time, and we only had one cancellation, despite the snow! Thank you everyone for making his party special.

Emily's last night as a 6 year old!

Last night, Avia and Aunt Rocky came over for cake. We celebrated Sarah (march 1st) and Emily (march 3rd) with one cake. = )

A couple of pictures from her last night as a 6 year old:

This morning, her presents were in big boxes at her feet.  She was excited to open a Giant Squishable Penguin from Enisi and Edudi, and a Squishable Manatee from Mutti and Daddy.

Happy Birthday my sweet, sweet Emily!!!

Anecdotally: Emily's class has a new student, as of Thursday.  His name is Sergio and he was born in Mexico.  That night, Emily came home and made him a welcome card, and even wrote "Bienvenido" on it, since he speaks Spanish.  She makes me so proud.  The world could use a lot more Emilys I think.
