Benbrook Stables & Katie's Birthday Party

We ate some authentic Tex-Mex steak fajita quesidillas, homemade pico de gallo, and homemade guacamole! They were delicious...Our little boy, Cowboy'd Up! Zeth's first hay ride

Thank you Travis Ave, for the blessed afternoon at Benbrook Stables! Most kids had to be walked on trail by their parents, but our girls because of their horse back expierence from camp got to free ride the horses in the arena! They had a blast...

Our daughter, Katie, is now 8! One of her desires was to go to the RainForrest Cafe for their "Volcano" dessert... so we made it ourselves at home 3 large scoups of icecream on top of each other, and then brownie walls surrounding it making the volcano, with whip cream and choclate syrup as lava, with Sparklers on top... it was like 2000 calorie bites.

We went to Stock Yards for dinner on Katie's birthday, and we hid a present in this barrell they have outside, and told her to go take her picture in the barrell, for about 30 sec she really believed she found a present! :)

Robin has always done such a great job at making the girls birthday parties themed out, with great laughter and games, they have always brought wonderful memories for the girlies...
This year was Katie's choice and it was a "Minute to Win it" birthday partie. We got the projector and displayed the TV shows actual blueprints on the wall so kids could see how to play the games, and then we used the actual 60 sec countdown... FUN!

Bobble Head- pedometers are used attached to the top of the head, its their goal to get as many clicks as possible within the 60 secs.

Choclate Unicorn- Object is to stack 7 choclate donuts on your forehead within the 60 secs without them falling on the ground... Kelsey was the only kid that could pull it off!

Dizzy Mummy- Object was in 60 secs they had to unwind the toilet paper without using their hands, only by spinning their body until the roll was empty, if the paper got torn, they are out.
Kelsey our own cake artist, wanted to make Katie's cake all by her self this year... so she made a half vanilla with lemon frosting, and half chocolate with expresso frosting, covered in the foundant and she even made all the flowers, tree, and butterflies out of foundant.
