Wow. When did she get so big??? My girl is 8. And we had quite a party to celebrate it! She invited over a bunch of her friends from school. The weather was fantastic - they played outside and we were able to do the pinata outside (thank God!! I was a little worried about what this might look like inside...) And I think a good time was had by all.
We even had a math lesson during the party!!! Or was it physics?
or a lesson in bareback bronc riding?
And this handsome little guy greeted all of the girls with a big hug -- seriously! It was pretty cute that each girl thought that she was the only one that he did that for... He has a way of making us each feel special!
Oh and the pinata!!! Dave was in charge of this. Meg and I stuffed it and Dave hung it from a tree and was an EXPERT at making the activity last a whole lot longer than I though it would!!! He gave each girl one whack --- they could swing as many times as it took but after their one whack, they had to pass the pink baseball bat along to the next girl. I was the one in the background saying - "get back... you're gonna get hit --- step back!!!"
Annie made contact...
Everyone waiting their turn patiently...
Did I mention that Annie made contact??? And did I mention that little girls think that candy falling out the bumm of a paper horse is hysterical??? Ladies... every one!
And when Ella hit the poor thing, he came back to get her!
Do you see that snicker on Dave's face??? Maddy is on his soccer team and he enjoys teasing her a bit!
She takes it well. :)
And the birthday girl of course!
Oh... and who can resist this cheesy grin???
I think I've got some videos too so I'll have to download those and add them...

I can't believe she is EIGHT either! Crazy!
Looks like a fun party! :)
I tightened up the crop and edited my favorite pictures of this gorgeous little beauty and have her on display life size in my home in my large digital picture displays. I display her in my living room and bedroom.

When I come home from a hard day at work I get really excited when I walk in and have a chance to feast my eyes on girl because she looks so good. She is usually the best looking creature I've seen all day. One thing I love is when I walk up to admire every beautiful good looking feature and detail she appears to be directly in front of me and looks as though I can reach out and touch her and that is so frickin' cool and so much fun!
