Happy 7th Birthday Anna!!

Anna turned 7 last month.  We let her open a couple of presents early.  The big present was a new bunk bed!  They have been asking for one for a few years.  Since Anna wanted to have a sleepover with 3 friends, we figured it was a good time.  DSC_0003

Gram sent a karaoke machine – so much fun!

The girls LOVE this present!  (taken with my cell phone).  Gram suggested we get a 2nd microphone.  I was going to wait until Christmas, but after just a couple of minutes, I realized that sooner would be better than later.

Her birthday morning – I made her french toast.

She wanted to take her friends to the mudpie.  It was handy that 2 of her friends have little sisters who are friends with Emma, so they got invited along for the non-sleepover portion of the party.

Anna got another dolphin, a dolphin watch, a couple of horse toys and nail polish.  Great loot for my dolphin/horse lover!

Since she’s already done a dolphin and horse cake the last 2 years, she decided on an orca cake this year.  There’s no close up of it since I wasn’t taking pictures… I’m so grateful my girls are very content with a Kroger cake with a toy whatever they want it to be on top.

After cake Tony took them down the street to feed the turtles.

Then we had some manicure time.  You can see my leg-shaven Junior and lots of extra rugs in the background.  He had been gated off in just the living room for a few weeks.  At this point he was contained to the back of the house with all the rugs down.  Thankfully we are done with the gates, and the extra rugs will go away this week!!

Sleepover central!!  The first girl fell asleep around 9:30 (Emma).  The last girl fell asleep at 1 AM!!!!  I was tired the next day, but it was really fun!
