Shan's 6th birthday

Well our baby girl is growing up! She turned 6 on May 14th and we had her fun "beach party inthe desert" on the 17th. We started the day with Jerrick's final ball game at 10 am and boy was it already hot! Jerrick did good and he is an awesome little ball player! I am so happy that baseball is over though because I think it has to be the longest lasting sport, well except golf! We had Shan's party in Moapa at the community center and the splash pad at the park. We started off by playing in the water because it was so so hot and the water felt very good! After getting wet we had a nice lunch then played some games. We started off with the limbo and it was cute because all the kids are so little that they can bend pretty far and they all ended up winners. Next we had a ring toss on to an octopus and that was a little challenging for the kids, but with a little cheating thay managed to get some rings onto the tentacles. Then of course we had to have a pinata, which is a favorite for all especially since John throws out extra candy on the floor when the pinata is broken. Shandra was able to open her presents and she got a lot of fun toys from her friends, and finally we had a very cool ice cream cake from Dairy Queen. I love getting the cakes from them because they decorate the cakes so nice and Shan's had a cool beach scene on hers. Very Cute!! We ended the party by playing freeze tag in the water and sent everyone home exhausted! Then at 6 pm we wnet to Daesha's game and she was very proud of herself because she hit a homerun and hit in one girl and she scored too. It was a good day for all! Thanks to Mom and Dad for helping out and for carpooling all the kids home! Thanks to Kayla and Kaysen and Shasta for coming down to clebrate Shans day with her! I hope everyone had a blast!!!
