January is full of birthdays in the Brower family and Kaylee brings up the rear celebrating her birthday on the 30th. Britt decided to do a friends party at Layton's Classic Fun Center this year and I was really excited to get to take the girls. It was a busy day getting ready for our Primary Appreciation night but with some good planning we found time to make it all work. The girls couldn't wait to skate once we got there. Neither of them have really had any experience skating so we opted to take Gracie's scooter instead and let Hallie work on roller skating. They had some nice stands to help with their balance. Initally Hallie looked like a new born colt that hadn't yet founds its legs but she didn't let that slow her down. The fell several times but was determined to figure it out and by the time we left was skating without the stand. We will definitely have to go some more so she can practice some more.
Gracie loved having open space to ride her scooter
Then the girls played on the bounce houses for few minutes.
After some skating we took a break for for cupcakes and ice cream. The cupcakes were awesome I have never met something with to much frosting but this was pretty close to to much for me. The cupcakes were shaped together to make a large cupcake and they had filled all the spots with extra frosting it was awesome.
After Kaylee opened her gifts we got back to playing. Each of the kids got 10 tokens to spend on games or rides to earn tickets. Hallie spent hers pretty quickly and was sad when she was out it was a great opportunity to teach her about making the most of what you have and slowing down next time. She was a little sad but got over it pretty quickly and made the best of it. Gracie took her time spending her tokens she played a few games but spent most of her time riding the mechanical horse.
After we finished spending our tokens we turned in our tickets for some small prizes each of the girls chose a ring and a tootsie roll. Then it was time to head for home so I could pick up the babysitter and get to church to set up for our Primary activity. We were glad that we made the time to go and spend some time with Kaylee on her birthday...thanks to Britt for the invite
