Alexa's Birthday Part I

We started Alexa's 7th birthday with donuts and bacon...
...and presents...
...including this Frozen hair bow.
 
Then she went on a camping trip with some friends from church.
She even got to open some presents on the trip.

The whole gang

Alexa's Birthday Part II

The next week after Alexa's birthday, we had a Frozen birthday party with two of her friends from school.

The food was all Frozen-themed



Cupcakes!

Opening presents - a Frozen CD

Do you want to build a snowman?


And, finally, watching Frozen.


Beach 2014

Last month, we had a great week at the beach with Dave's parents.  The weather was great, and we all had a good time.  Even Sierra liked the beach this year.

So windy I could barely keep my hat on
A friend from college came to visit us and spend a day at the beach with us.   Here are all of our kids.
