6 Years Old!

Harper's 6th Birthday was on Thursday of the first week of school.  The morning are a little rushed but we woke up with extra time to celebrate her before school.  Had a yummy birthday breakfast and then opened a few presents.





Mimi got her a wooden wardrobe for all of her doll clothes! 

Thursday, August 28th
Grandad and I took the boys to have lunch with Harper.  She requested Sonic so we stopped on the way to school and picked it up.  Happened to be $0.50 corn dog day so that was good.

Our big SIX year old! 

It was fun seeing her in her element at school with her new friends.  

First Day of Kindergarten

Can't believe that Harper started Kindergarten this year!  Just seems like yesterday that I was rocking her to sleep in the middle of the night when she was an infant.  She has grown into a confident and spunky little lady.  The elementary school that we feed to ends up going to Flower Mound HS (the other HS in town).  We made the decision to transfer her into a Marcus HS feeder school because that's where Jeff coaches.  McAuliffe Elementary is a fantastic school up in Highland Village (about a 10 minute drive from our house).  She has a few friends from preschool who attend as well.  We know and LOVE the principal.

She had a countdown to the first day of school going for the past few weeks.  She was SO excited to get started. 

Goodbye hugs and kisses from little brothers. 

Jeff will be able to take her every day on his way to school.  This is very nice so I don't have to get the boys out the door by 7:20.  The bell rings at 7:40 for them to go to their classroom.
I went with them the first day so we could walk her into her classroom but after that he just dropped her off. 




Mrs. Kids is her teacher and she is just wonderful.  A Baylor grad also =) 


She knows one girl in her class from baseball games and they are at the same table and get to sit next to each other! 



Her BFF Emerson is right next door! 

Brody was very confused as to why Harper is now gone all day every day.  I think he kind of misses his play mate.  I have to say that it's really nice not hearing H & B argue for 7 whole hours.  

Picked her up from the carpool line and she talked our ear off all the way home and the rest of the afternoon.  She loves school! 

Harper Birthday Party Round 2

Harper's birthday party with her friends was just for girls so we kicked out all of the boys for a few hours.  We invited them back to the house for a yummy lunch and more birthday fun.  Papa and Harper's birthdays are just a few days apart so we did a joint cookie cake for them. 





Anything Frozen was a hit this year!




Happy Happy Birthday Miss Harper Joy! 

Harper's Pajama & Pancake Birthday Party

Miss Harper Joy turned 6 last week.  We celebrated by having a little Pajama & Pancake birthday party at our house.  She wanted a Spa party so we also incorporated finger nail painting, hair braiding, and more.  

Oh and she wanted a Frozen theme also - so we did a little bit of everything.  We served pancakes, bacon, eggs, and fruit parfaits with whipped cream on top.  

While we were waiting on all of the party guests to attend they did some coloring.

Nail station 


Aunt Beka came to help.  

Mimi was the queen of the hair braiding station. She raised 3 girls so she is a pro.  

Harper's great grandmother came out to help also.  She helped with nails.  



Happy Birthday Sweet Girl.  We love you!
