Happy Birthday Catie Cooper!

If we know it only took $6 to make Catie this happy,  we would have canceled the birthday party and gifts!

We all celebrated Catie's sixth birthday at the "lazy river" aquatic center with her 18 closest friends. Our theme for this party was princess cake, Christmas napkins, and miscellaneous plates from past events. I think the other parents thought we were having financial difficulties, but the kids never noticed!

Catie was really excited about her princess cake and Abby helped her blow out the candles.
Ahh Ann, the party was supposed to be for the kids...

Catie had her first basketball game just before her birthday party. She did a great job staying in position and playing defense. She even tried dribbling the ball up the court one time. The best part was how cute she looked in her uniform.

Catie is off like a flash after the ball!
Jackson had his first basketball game too, but we did not get any pictures because of another car key incident by Stiv...

 

The Blizzard of 2011!  Atlanta got about 6 inches of snow on Sunday night and the whole city is shut down.  It looks like two snow days for the kids and a family cooped up inside the house going stir crazy! Jackson was so excited to use his new snow shovel that Grandpa gave him for Christmas. We offered to pay him $5 dollars to shovel the driveway... he finished only 15% of it and managed to negotiate $3 out of us for his efforts.  

Notice the swimming jackets! They finally made it out of the closet!
