Anna Kate turns 7!!!

What a fun week celebrating our girl! I absolutely cannot believe she is 7! Our celebration began on Friday with a swimming playdate with Aunt Lizzie, MG, Stace and Claire. We got to swim and eat a yummy snack :)





I love to do special bday balloons and a special breakfast for the kids on their birthday!


One thing she really wanted was the Hatchimal adventure game!

 She chose cake pops for her breakfast!

Corby enjoying his cake pop!

Learning the game.....

Leighton and Mrs. Caroline arrived around lunch time and we went to Chick Fil A for lunch and hit the pool!







Mimi and Papa arrived later afternoon and we  opened presents.....



We headed to Rucker John's for a birthday dinner with family :)





 Abby joined us for a sleepover....

We stopped at Dunkin' on our way to church the next morning. C woke up not feeling well so he and daddy stayed home.

Later in the week we headed to Williamsburg to visit Great Wolf Lodge and Busch Gardens!!! Nanny gave Anna Kate money to visit Build-A-Bear for her birthday so that was our first stop. If you have never been, they get to pick out a character, help the workers stuff it, add a heart and get it all sewn up and then you get to go and groom it. The kids love it and the employee that helped us was great!

Anna Kate picked an Anna Bear from Frozen


Corban picked Spiderman Bear




Getting the heart ready to go into their bears.....




 Grooming their bears.....
 Read to go!!


When we got to Great Wolf Lodge they gave us all wolf ears and the kids got ones with birthday hats on them :)


Waterslide fun!!

Mommy making a BIG splash! Ha!
 Bigfoot pass....


The kids LOVE the arcade.....maybe even more than the waterpark!




We went to story time at the clock tower and then headed upstairs to our room to go to bed.....We woke up the next morning, grabbed breakfast and were some of the first in line to get into Busch Gardens. We spent 8 hours there before heading home! Aunt Cinn, Aaron and Brent came to join us too!


AK got a little braver this trip and decided to try a few rides she has never tried before....







 Skyride!!





Pet Shennanigans.....

Teacups! Mommy doesn't do teacups!






Train Ride!!





Aunt Cinni talked me into riding the new wooden roller coaster at BG! I haven't ridden one in at least 7 years.....it was an experience for sure! That is us waving in the back!

Bryant hung out with the kids while we rode....




AK also braved Pompeii! After the big drop she said "That was scary and I'm never doing it again!" Haha!


Such a fun couple of days celebrating our sweet girl! We are so blessed :))
