Faith's 6th Birthday Celebration in pictures...............

(Warning!!!!! I just had to warn you...... there are TONS of photos in this post!!!!!)

We had a great family day together celebrating Faith's Birthday!!

The only thing I wished I'd done differently was let Faith invite just one of her special friends to spend the day with us. The boys got bored at times with the day being all about Faith and they did their share of complaining. ( I found myself threatening them several times through out the day!) I was wishing Faith had a friend with her to share in the fun with.

We started the day going to Build-a Bear at the mall. I have been wanting to take her here forever so it was a fun way to spend her Birthday. She loved it!!

She picked out a turtle!

getting ready to stuff him...........

He feels just perfect!

Making her wish with the little heart to put in her turtle

Her turtle is a boy of course.

Getting Toby's certificate with Daddy

What a great time at Build-a Bear!!!

Off to lunch at Red Robin's

They came to sing Happy Birthday to Faith and she was so excited!!

When they were finished she threw her arms up!!!

Sharing with her big brother

A ride on the carousel before we go

Faith loves the dragon

The boys on the "puke ride", as Daddy calls it!

Next we went for a game of bowling!!!!

Faith has only recently started bowling without using the ramp to help her with the ball. It is so wonderful to see her motor skills and physical strength progressing.

She insisted on wearing her crown from school!

Look at that face! She wasn't too happy with that one!

Home for Birthday cake and lots of wishes!!!!! (Mommy isn't the best cake decorator, but it was yummy!)

Happy Birthday

and many wonderful birthday wishes my sweet baby girl!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh, the best for last.....presents!!!!!!

She got a new big girl two wheel razor scooter,
leap frog tag reading system (which she loves)
lego sets (of course!)
her first 2 stuffed webkinz which she really wanted,
and because Mommy had to get something girly:) she got a new purse and a paper doll board game.

It's great being 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
