Swimming Party

 Our cousin, Jerika, turns four tomorrow.  Ashlyn is just three days older than her.  So yesterday after having birthday cupcakes at Jerika's house, we went swimming at a hotel with the Blatters and Shurtliffs.  Matt was sick, so I just took the girls.  We had lots of fun- Kaylie especially had fun splashing and playing in the water.  Some of the pictures are foggy and some were taken without a flash, but you can still kind of see.  My camera isn't the greatest for swimming pictures!

Ashlyn's Birthday

 My baby turned four yesterday!
Maybe it's because she was really my baby for three and a half years, but it doesn't seem like she can be that old!


 Aunt Erin and Uncle Derek sent her a Rapunzel wig and hair styling stuff.  She loved it!

 She even wanted Rylee to blow dry her hair!



 She really wanted this Minnie ball pit from Kohls so she was very excited to get it!

 Her wig- so pretty!

 Showing me she's 4 with her fingers as she's eating her birthday meal at Leos- a play place here.

 Grandma and Grandpa came to help since Matt was sick.  
So she got to open some presents from them there.

 Rylee, Cami, Ryan, and Ashlyn at Leo's
They are their friends from daycare and they had so much fun together!
Ashlyn wants to marry Ryan when she's older!





 It was the perfect time to go- we were pretty much the only ones there!


 Thanks, Mom and Dad, for coming.
