Ashley is 9!

2nd new post of the day-Waiting for the girls to arrive at the Pavilion-indoor ice skating in Greenville.  It was a great and fun place to have a birthday party and pretty reasonably priced too!
 In the party room
 DELICIOUS cake from Sam's-provided by the Pavilion


 they had ice cream and pizza also!  Love this picture on the wall in the party room.  The train the penguins are riding in is named George and is an outdoor ride at the Pavilion where we went to celebrate many of the boys birthdays when they were little!


 Time to try this skating thing!





 They had a blast and you can rent walkers which help tremendously with a group of inexperienced skaters!












 Opening fun gifts at home-a bop it game
 crazily sparkly headphones that are PURPLE
 pens and a pouch and stamps
 paint your own suncatchers
 a beach towel, doughnut inner tube, and chapstick
 trying out the headphones.  Can't believe our girl is 9-we had a terrific time celebrating with her sweet friends from school!
Just little bitty

 With mama and our birthday flowers when you were 1

More tuba playing

 The band had an end of the year concert at school and we could actually SEE Scott play!
 They sounded great and have had lots of fun with music from Star Wars and Rocky

 All the 8th graders-last concert
 The boys school also had a book fair at Barnes and Noble and 8th strings played in the am and band in the pm-this group has a lot of fun playing together and are fun to listen to!



 with Mr. Bell who has been their teacher since 6th grade-we wish we could take him to HS with Scott!
