Hailey celebrated her birthday with a few friends from school on Friday. She hosted a rather fun overnight
camp out. The weather held out long enough for us to participate in all the outdoor activities Hailey had planned. Sleeping overnight in a tent was not possible due to the cold, but the living room worked out just as well. I'm confident that these photos will be evident of the great time we ALL had!
Hailey taught all the girls the art of casting. The girls divided up into 2 teams-The
Grizzlies & The Roasted Marshmallows- to compete for the highest accumulative score. The girls really enjoyed this!
After a game of "Dead Man" on the trampoline the girls wandered over to feed the goats;
bare feet and all....UGH!
A game of "Pin the Marshmallow on the Stick" turned out to be so much fun. The girls were a riot!
Brian dressed Chloe &
Mackenna into
camouflage ghillie suits so that they could sneak up on
Keagan who was tending the fire.
Most of the girls had roasted marshmallows before, but some had never roasted hot dogs. The girls ate 2 or 3 each so they must have tasted REAL GOOD. Oh yes, we made
s'mores, too.
The highlight of the evening was a 2 hour game of flashlight tag which included 2 seekers & 7 hiders. Brian came out during one round in the
ghillie suit, scared the living daylights out of Bethany and gave all the girls a good laugh. We sure do have a very fun Dad!

Present time and movie time. Thank you everyone for the wonderful and creative gifts. They all mean so very much to me-Hailey.
After 6 hours of sleep we were all ready for round two- making and creating Valentine sucker bouquets. Every year Hailey has incorporated Valentine's Day in some form or another into her birthday. Hailey came home from the hospital the day after Valentine's Day. It has always been a very special time in our family.
