Happy 5th Birthday!

Hayden, Payson and Madison turned 5 today and boy were they ready! Here they are getting their spunk on before school. My have they grown!

For breakfast Daddy made an early morning run to the donut shop so the kids could each have their own 3-layered donut cake!

And for school I made cupcakes for their class decorated with mermaid jewels and pirate coins.

Keith even surprised the kids as the Mystery Reader for their class!

After school we headed to the mall for the girls to get their hair done...

...male-up done...

...nails done...

...and ears pierced!

Hayden has been asking to have her ears pierced since she was 3! I told her she could do it at age 5, thinking that she would forget and move on, but she remembered and held me to it! So, on her 5th birthday, she had two small pink studs put in her ears.

Madison wasn't so sure if she was going to have her ears pierced. She wanted to wait another year until she saw Hayden do it without a tear- or hardly even a flinch! Madison admittedly cried but they were both so brave and happy! And you're in for a surprise- Madison chose purple studs!

Time for presents!

During school chapel the kids received their birthday pencils and certificates and Payson received the character award for patience!

Here's our little family on the kids' last day of being 4! Happy Birthday kids! You did it!
