Birthday Celebration...

Birthdays so far this year have been difficult. I came home from Girl's Camp on Colton's birthday, in extreme pain. Poor kid didn't get a party! Then this whole "preterm labor" thing is going on right now, and it's Bria's birthday. So, we decided to skip the parties this year and so far, the kids have liked the idea...plus...it's a LOT easier on me:)

So, for Bria's birthday she told me of a couple families she'd like to spend the day with. Her choices were...Grandma Jenny & Papa Cass, the Davis family, my friend Diane and her family, and my brother's family. Well, the Davis' had a wedding, and my brother's family is super sick...but we got to spend time this evening with these guys...
We watched a movie, had popcorn, sang and had cake and ice cream. Thanks Diane for the cupcakes:)
Her friends even surprised her with her very first Webkin! She was SO excited!!! And...Grandma and Papa surprised her with a hair accessory kit and money to Walmart!

Thanks everyone for coming and for celebrating this special girl with us! We had a lot of fun!!!
And...as requested by the Thackers, here is a picture of Bria with her Barbie...
What a fun birthday:)

So, what is a webkin? It looks like a big furball to me. Is it a dog? Anyway, I guess the only toys I know are cars, trucks, balls,(sports that is :p), all the things a little boy is into!

yep, that Barbie looks just like you Holly :) Glad she was cool with not doing the whole elaborate party thing. That makes life a lot easier. Hang in there!

Thanks for the picture! I don't get to buy Barbies so I like to see them! She is almost as pretty as you, Bria!

What a sweet girl. I can't believe she's seven!

Every time I click to check on your blog, I have my fingers crossed that you haven't gone into labor. Hopefully you can hold off until the 17th! Good luck.
