Seven!

January 17, 2013 - Carys' 7th Birthday!

I can hardly believe my baby is seven! 
And what happened to all her teeth?




There was a big pile of presents on the dining room table,
 and Landon wasn't even home to add his.


From Mom and Dad, Carys got The Lorax DVD...


A new game for her Leapster 2...









Two My Little Pony sets I picked up on Black Friday...

And a Melissa & Doug reusable sticker pad.
Chase gave Carys two of her own toys that Carys had been
drooling over - a Tinkerbell...

and some Legos from an old Lego Advent calendar for girls.





Gerren gave Carys a bag of gummy bears.

Carys' birthday fell on a Thursday when Greg works all day and night, and Landon isn't home from school.  He was coming home Friday though, as they had a three-day weekend with Monday off for Martin Luther King Day.  So Carys chose to wait to eat out (our birthday tradition) until Friday night.  We went to Cracker Barrel.

We don't usually do cake and candles.  I let each child choose a dessert for their big day.  This year, Carys chose a cake (White Cookie Cake), so we put candles in it for her.

It looks like a great day for Carys. Hard to believe she and Stacia are 7.

Guess I'd better correct that! :)
