Kayla turns 7

Last Saturday was Kayla's birthday. Since her birthday was on a Saturday we decided she could open her presents in the morning instead of waiting until dad got home from work. We put out her presents in the family room so that she would see them when she came downstairs in the morning. She was super excited, but she still had to wait a little while to open her presents because we had to go and borrow the Owensby's camera because ours broke again. Jared took Kayla to pick up the camera and get doughnuts for breakfast. Once they were back Kayla with a little help from Blake opened her presents.

Thank goodness Target had Barbie baby newborns. I had been hearing for a month about this toy! Kayla was really excited that I got them for her. After presents we decided to take the kids to Despicable Me. Blake actually sat through the whole movie, a first for him. The kids liked it but Jared and I thought it could have been better. When we got home we went swimming and then later in the day we went to Ponchos for dinner. I swear Kayla only likes that place because of the desert bar. The kids had ice cream, churros, jello, and sopapillas. Obviously when we got home no one was in the mood for birthday cake. No big deal we just did the birthday cake the next day.

Here are a few pictures of Blake in his homemade robot suit. He had me cut out holes in a paper sack for his body, but we couldn't figure out what to do for his helmet. I told him to go ask his dad and this is what they came up with.
