Soccer Games & Pictures from Rachael's Birthday

We like to give a little gag gift with our presents.  Rachael's friend Carson gave her toilet paper at her birthday party, which made her laugh so hard.  Daniel & I gave her a bar of soap!

 She also got a Tangled Water Bottle for Soccer & a Sandwich Holder.  


My parents gave her Silverlicious, so now she has the complete set of Pinkalicious books, her favorites!  She got the Pinkalicious Dress, gloves & handbag from Auntie Kelly, Uncle Bobby, Billy & Tommy!


Daniel gave her the Tangled Wig that she wanted so badly, she wants to be Rapunzel for Halloween, and got the Dress for her kid Birthday Party, she really wanted the hair. 



 
   She went nuts when she got it & squeezed Daniel, shouting "Thank You Daniel, Thank You!"  Daniel says, "No problem."  It was the sweetest exchange between them.
That is some SERIOUSLY long hair!  She looks so strange blonde, it was like some other child standing there in front of me...she LOVES it.  She asked me on the calendar today how far away Halloween is :)

 A Lady Bug Pillow Pet that she's wanted for 2 years now, I finally gave in.  I just don't understand it, and thought for sure it'd be a passing craze just like any other popular toy...but for Rachael this silly Pillow Pet has been on her list for Birthdays & Christmas.  Now we can check that off the list!
 Finally, I made her a ladybug cake with Daniel's help with the mixer.  I thought it'd be more difficult, but it was actually pretty easy.  Turned out pretty good!  I love ladybugs, and I call Rachael bug or buggy sometimes, so I thought the ladybug cake would go along with the ladybug pillow pet I knew she was getting.

Today we both had soccer at 9am.  Rachael's team, The Sharks won, like 20-2, Rachael scored a goal!  In the picture she is on the blue team, the only one with white shorts, dribbling the ball.  My dad said that they were definitely out to win & have a very good team.  Most of our games will not have a conflict so I will be able to Coach both teams now.  


Our team won 3-2, with our goalie accidentally punting the ball backwards over her head into the goal.  Otherwise we would've won 3-1!  Very proud of the Purple People Eaters!


After soccer, Rachael & Daniel had their friend Tyler's Birthday Party to go to at a bowling alley.  Wow, that was definitely overload.  Too loud, too many kids, too much chaos.  Rachael got her fingers pinched in between bowling balls, so she was balling.  As I was dealing with that, Daniel decided it was a perfect time to take off running into the nasty bar connected to the bowling alley.  Too Much.  We left early, without cake, with two crying kids, home for naps.  They woke up MUCH happier.


Tomorrow we have Daniel's Birthday Party, unfortunately, all his little friends we've invited are sick!  His cousins Billy & Tommy are coming, but he's going to be pretty disappointed when I tell him about his friends.  I will upload pictures tomorrow night.
