She turned 6 on the 6th so it was a Golden Birthday!
She asked for golden pancakes with golden raisins inside, but we didn't have golden raisins, and then she and Nathan decided on peaches and cream on top.
Her pancakes were stacked 6 high, and she was SO excited!
Then she asked to open presents before everyone left for school.
Her favorite thing was a diary and a multi color pen. Go Auntie Steph!
She also wore her gold sunglasses. It was so sunny and nice, she didn't even need a sweater.
But, I had one just in case.
It was PJ day at school.
Scarlett passed out Golden Birthday Cake Oreos.
The kids loved them.
Then we went to Toys R Us to spend GiGi's gift cards!
We were the only people there! It was so fun!
Scarlett has made her date list, and that should be the next post!
We have had some awesome snow and below zero temps, so our internet was wonky.
My girl, is so beautiful. She is so funny, and enthusiastic about everything.
Which means when she is upset or hurt, she is overly dramatic and feels like you cut her to the core.
She is totally unlike any of my other children, in some ways, I love that about her.
In other ways, it makes it difficult to reach her when she is FREAKING out. She is not logical, at all.
Everything in Bridget's life means a lot to her. She is extremely loyal, and in that same breath - won't be the girl with a "best friend" she likes to be alone and do her own thing, and if you want to follow her that's great, if not - oh well. She has made a lot of friends and has been invited over to play and invited to birthday parties and we have only been here 3 weeks.
She has an incredible laugh. She is funny, and has a lot to say.
She is always writing in journals or on scratch paper.
She was very sad to leave her room in Colorado. We had just repainted it, and she was really sad when we couldn't paint this house. But, I found a way to Bridg-a-fy her room here.
She got the full, since her room will be the guest room when people brave it up here.
*eyeroll*
I was anticipating a larger than life reaction, but...
She DOES love it!
At school, she was the star of the day. She brought treats, got a song, and a special prize.
For dinner, we tried something new. Chuck-A-Rama. (A buffet) The kids first time EVER at a buffet. Of course they loved it!
Loved making their own dessert!
Bridget is always mid-outfit change. This is just one half of a weeks worth of outfits.
She wants to be a fashion designer when she grows up.
She also wants to be a dancing actress.
She will be successful no matter what, the girl has gumption - and that is just not taught.
This girl is the EASIEST kid to shop for in my family. She loves everything, and gives the BEST reactions to things. All Bridget wanted was art supplies, and her own "stuff." DONE!
I grabbed some Mrs. Powell's Cinnamon Rolls for breakfast. They are huge and delicious!
Then she dove into her presents.
She loved everything she got, but she absolutely LOVED her Caboodle.
I filled it with hair accessories and a brush and several chapsticks.
All I am going to say is that Mama knows. I knew this would be her favorite thing. HAHA
We made sure she was sung to 7 times.
Auntie Steph ALWAYS goes first.
After breakfast, we headed out on an adventure (her request) to the very glamorous Rexburg.
It was a 30 minute drive.
We went exploring in the woods and then to the temple.
This is our 10th Temple.
This one is cool because it looks over the whole city...of Rexburg. Exciting Rexburg.
