Maxwell turned 4 on July 29
th and had his first ever friend birthday party and we had over a couple of kids from his primary class for dinner and cake. Earlier in the week he had watched a home video of his 1st birthday and how he kept wiping his finger across the frosting. We all thought it was so cute at that age, however we failed to tell him that at age 4, it is not kosher to keep double dipping with his fingers all over the cake that we were about to feed his guests.
One of our weaker theme parties this weekend was "
Itsy bitsy spider". We watched
Spiderwick and had these spider web ice cream desserts. I know the web would have turned out better if I used that syrup that hardens, but we made the best with what we had. The movie was a little scary for max and
syrelle.
Shipley dressed
Syrelle up as one of the little fairies from the movie. I think she makes an absolutely adorable fairy.
Shipley had her big Cottonwood Invitational swim meet on Saturday. She had to be there at around 7 am and it ended around 3 pm. It was a long, hot day but that didn't slow
Shipley down. Competing against 4 different teams,
Shipley came away with one 2
nd place medal, two 3rd place medals and one over all 3rd place trophy for winning the most points for her team, the crocodiles. We are so proud of her. Her coaches are awesome and have every confidence that
Shipley could go far with her talents. Way to go
Shipley!

Happy birthday to Maxwell and way to go Shipley! You have great kids!
Whatever, your themed parties are a great idea. Its not like your kids know how nerdy they are. Just kidding ;) If its any consolation, I was quite frightened by The Spiderwick Chronicles, myself.
And good job to Shipley. If I remember correctly, I played a role a long time ago to help her learn her swimming techniques. Or maybe that was just the Prince kids. I just want her autograph when she goes to Beijing.
Congrats shipley.. i had no idea!!
it was so good to see you all last week.. LOVE YOU
