And we got another one!! YES! Happy birthday to my little girl! Alli turned double digits yesterday. And not only did she get spoiled with lots of girl stuff, she got whipped cream in the face, yep, we got her good! It was so much fun! I am telling you, this parenting thing is a blast! Here is Alli modeling her birthday presents.

sis blowing out the candles on her birthday cake! blow baby blow thats a lot of candles. Jason ready to offer any encouragement if she needs it.

Lagoon!!! This was towards the end of the day. One of our last rides, Rattlesnake rapids, Kim, Chelsea, Zach, Alli, and Jason (abby did not want to go on this ride) all heading for the water! You can tell by the look on kims face that she is heading straight for the water!!!

Alli after her solo! She did AWESOME!! And she looked so beautiful! I am so proud that I have a daughter who is brave enough to get up in front of hundreds of people and dance her little heart out! and do so good! She took second place! Her group took first place, and Abbys group took first place, The recital is next week and I will post pics of both girls then! (I forgot to take pics the second day of the groups! bad mom!!!)

It was so crazy! I vow to do better in the future! I promise!

Also as a side note, Joey swam in a meet in Boise Idaho this last weekend. He did pretty good, It was a more advanced meet, and it challenged him more than the meets in the past. But he held his own. (minus an arm cramp that hurt him in one of the races) I will post what he place when i get the official places later this week. He also had a great time bonding with his dad the whole weekend. And got to visit with his aunt and uncle and cousins by boise!! what a wild weekend for the Carroll's!
