Scarlett's 6th Birthday.....

Scarlett's 6th Birthday party was at Zooz Indoor Playland.

All morning Saturday the kids must have asked me 100 times if it was time to go yet.

This is a pic of Scarlett sitting on the stairs patiently waiting to leave.

She had about 22 friends come to her party, and it was a lot of fun.

The kids had fun climbing on the rock climbing wall, going across the ropes over the crocodile river, and ride the
slide.

I've attached a short cut below to the rest of the pictures.

Scarlett turns 6 today....


Wow, my girl is 6 today.
What a difference a year can make, Scarlett has changed so much over the past 12 months.
She is such an independent girl, she knows what she wants and will do anything (good or bad ) to make sure she gets her way.
Scarlett has a fiery temper just like her dad, its hard to know what will happen if she's in a bad mood or is tired. A simple discussion can turn into a fight, or hearing her tell us we are ruining her life.
She is doing very well in school, she is extending on all subjects and can't wait to start grade one in the fall. She is looking forward to starting french immersion (although it might because of the pizza lunches she's knows you get there).
She spends a lot of time drawing and writing notes to her friends. She is also very addicted to her dad's MP3 player and has become an avid country music fan. Whenever she goes in anyone else's car she wants them to put on her favorite country music station. Right now her favorite songs are "Travelling Soldier" by the Dixie Chicks, 1,2,3 like a bird I see by Tim McGraw. Although Martin has also been known to add a few hip hop and rock songs on to the player also.
She is a very strong swimmer now, and is looking forward to starting lessons again soon.
Her best friends right now are Catherine, Victoria, Kate and Beth. She claims to have a boyfriend named James, but won't really talk about him.
She is still very protective of her brother, although I notice that she doesn't necessarily want him included when she has friends over as much anymore.

Pics of our trips to the zoo.....

we got a zoo pass this year, and I hope to make it there many times.

This past week we went and saw the new dinosaur exhibit which was amazing. The kids loved seeing the dinosaurs move and roar. They were surprised at the actual size of the T-Rex.

As usual they love the kids zone, and want to spend time there.

We are making another trip next week just to spend time at the splash park.
