She was very impressed by this ;) |

We took cupcakes into Courtney's class and she got to stand on the table while we sang happy birthday with her teacher Mrs. Trautman! She was loving it! |

And Cole was loving being a big boy in the Kindergarten classroom. |

All Courtney wanted to do for her birthday was go horseback riding! So we were lucky enough to find a wonderful barn and instructor that gave 8 girls a lesson on grooming, tackle, and then got to ride multiple times! It was perfect! And they LOVED IT!!! |
