We had her birthday party a week early since I was going to be out of town. She had a pretend sleepover with five of her friends. They made crafts, played, ate homemade pizza and cupcakes and got into their pajamas and curled up in their sleeping bags for a for a movie and more playing. She has such a sweet group of friends. Nary a cross word or hurt feeling all day.
She loved opening her presents with lovely new clothes and books, crafty projects, puzzles and roller blades. All good stuff and she was so appreciative of it all.

| The girls had fun decorating |
