Kira's 7th birthday

The morning began with breakfast and a couple gifts.

And yes, we let her have ice-cream for breakfast!

This is our "wedding picture" after church.  Unbeknownst to us, the pastor had us all recite our wedding vows to each other again amongst our church family.  It was very special and very sweet.  I only wish I had worn a dress!!!

After church we went down to Disney for the afternoon.
Our first stop was McDonalds where we told Kira a special surprise guest was waiting.

We had invited the Vander Weide family to join us for the day!

Kira got a happy meal with her birthday gift card from Great Grandpa Dewey and Great Grandma Emilie.

Siri did too!

Enjoying a fantastic time at the Finding Nemo Musical!
Unfortunately, after this, it was really pouring outside and we got drenched.  Long story short, we decided to call it an early day and continue the birthday festivities at home.

At home, after getting baths and warming up, the girls started reading some new school books that Mommy ordered.  I was working on the computer on the couch and Jason was doing dishes.  The next thing I know Jason is telling me to come over and see what the girls are doing.

Kira decided to try and draw a picture of King Tut...

...and Siri was trying to build a molecule with grapes and toothpicks.
