Pinata Time

If you notice, this is the type of pinata where you pull strings instead of hit it with a stick. One of the strings will release the candy. Guess which one Carmen pulled with her very first try.

More Birthday Pictures

We celebrated Carmen's birthday a few days early with her family in Houston.

Carmen's pre-birthday bash

Grampa and Gramma came down from Kansas City to visit with us over the long weekend. We had an impromptu birthday party for Carmen.

Now all of our kids have their OWN soccer ball!

This, of course, was the hit of the day! The girl loves to dress up.

Thanks Grampa and Gramma!!
