Layla's 4th Birthday

Since we did Layla's chocolate cowgirl dance party in Utah we decided not to have another big party here for her. But we did want to celebrate with her friends here so we planned a last minute birthday morning celebration with her cute friends at the splash pad. Layla chose yummy donuts and juice to share with her friends.

We are so thankful to have such great friends! Then we were off to the Airport to pick up Grandma Sharon and Julian. They flew out for the weekend to be with Layla on her birthday.

Layla's Chocolate Cowgirl Dance Party

This little girl of ours is something else! She decided that for her 4th birthday party she wanted to have a Chocolate Cowgirl Dance party. She wanted to have 20 horses at her party too! Hmmm....well that was not going to be easy to pull off in Arizona (or anywhere else). So while we were visiting in Utah for the 4th of July, Kacie suggested we do her party there. So the chocolate cowgirl dance party was born!

 The party started off on Saturday with Papa taking these 2 cowgirls over to the barn to ride the cutest pony I have ever seen. 

Papa was really teaching these girls to ride!

Her name was Jewel but Layla decided she was going to take her home to Arizona and change her name to Angel (she is serious about being a cowgirl)

The rest of her party was on Sunday. These 3 cute cowgirls got busy making their cowgirl hats fabulous!

Everyone came dressed in their best gear

Boots and hats and big belt buckles!

How cute was this cowgirl!? Aunt Kacie made super delish chocolate horses.

Oh Uncle Pot Pie! Reed definetly won for the best outfit. Grandma Sharon could not stop laughing at this mess!

This little cowgirl was too much in her red cowgirl boots.

Every chocolate cowgirl dance party needs a game of water balloon toss.

And giving some cowgirl thanks!

And we were off to dance.......

and DANCE!!

Sooooo much fun!

Layla had such a great time celebrating her birthday in Utah. Thank you so much for our super fun family for everything they did to make Layla's party all that she wanted! 

Dinosaurs!

One of the days we were in Utah was super cold and rainy so we decided to take the little girls to the Dinosaur Museum. We had never been to one before so we were really excited to go!

Even the babies were happy!

Utah for the 4th

We started the 4th off with a fun parade. The little girls had a lot of fun even though it was super warm! Just for the record Uncle Pot Pie had a lot of fun too (he is silly).

After the parade we were off to swim for the afternoon.

These 2 are too much in their swimsuits!



Rylee and Alex were so cute trying to teach the Layla, Brynley and Peyton how to stunt

Layla loved jumping off the diving board and did such a great job of swimming in the huge pool all day

We wrapped up the day with sparklers and a nice view of a local firework show.
