My Birthday Girl

Katie Beth Turned 6 TodayKatie Beth turned 6 years old today.  Given we are out of town, we decided to take her out to dinner to some place new to her, Red Robin.

We enjoyed the food and she had never had a restaurant sing to her.  She was surprised to say the least of their dessert presentation and singing.

America the Beautiful Park and Kites

Two Kites and Katie Beth Flying ThemKaren picked up kites and Katie Beth has been wanting to fly them ever since.  We finally got to a park to fly them.

The weather was good for kites.  Katie Beth got the first one up with a little help.  She quickly wanted to move on to flying the second kite, which went up much easier for Katie Beth.

Katie Beth switched focus to wanting to share the flying experience with other children by running with a flying kite toward children asking if they wanted to fly them with her.

First Swim Meet of the Season

Katie Beth before Individual FreestyleKatie Beth enjoys her new swim cap. She had a great time at the swim meet.

She keeps getting better and better each day. She competed in the individual freestyle and one of the relays for eight under.

Face Painting Fun

Katie Beth is having a blast today and the excitement has not stopped.

We are having dinner at Mellow Mushroom and Gabrielle is here doing Face Painting. Gabrielle is wonderful. She is painting bracelets on Katie Beth.

Here are the results, which I think are nice. They are a big improvement over the traditional face painting.

Hopefully, Katie Beth will not rub it off during the night. She likes to see things, but she doesn’t like having stuff on her. But, dirt is fine from what I can tell.

Katie Beth’s First Time Bowling

Away it GoesKatie Beth had a blast bowling with her Aunt Hope, Charlie, and Hannah while her Aunt Faith tried hard to take photos of everything.

Hopefully, we didn’t over do it. Nothing like the annual bowling event to kill your arm!
