McKenzie's 7th Birthday

Can You believe it? 7 years old!?!?! Since her very first birthday we've done some sort of party outside where the kids could play in the water and even though I had thought up lots of fun party themes she just wasn't interested unless we could do it and play in the water so this year ended up being no different. She chose to do a luau theme like last year. We had all sorts of fun water activities. Of course we had a pool.
We had a slip and slide.
And water balloons. They thought it would be fun to get dad. :)
There was also a sprinkler under the trampoline.
And don't forget the beach balls. ;)
And of course what's a party without cake and presents!
We gave her tickets to the upcoming Taylor Swift concert. I'm not sure she knew what to think!
Of course she was gonna need a t-shirt to wear to the concert.
She also got some much desired gifts. A frog pillow pet.
An earring hanger.
And a Barbie bride.
Because she's growing up (and because I'm not ready for her to be that big yet) she wanted to invite some friends to her party. Since our family includes plenty of people already we decided to have a 2nd (and much smaller) party on the day of her birthday with just a couple of close friends. We did all the same activities.
Then had ice cream and cupcakes that McKenzie had decorated earlier that day.
Love these girls!
Thanks so much to everyone who came to celebrate with us! We love you all!
