Birthday Girl!

Today we celebrated Allyson's 8th birthday (which just happens to be her Grandpa Schrock's birthday too) even though her actual birthday is not until tomorrow.   We did the normal birthday tradition - Sunday afternoon party with both sets of grandparents, aunt and uncles.

Here are a few of the celebration pictures.

The Birthday Girl!!!  She is growing up way too fast!



My attempt at her birthday cake.  I had totally spaced buying the decorating frosting, so this is what I came up with.  :o)






One of her three gift cards!  She's at the age now where she likes getting gift cards/money so she can pick out what she wants.  She definitely made out like a bandit this year :o)



Allyson is also really liking chapter books.  She got four books and this is one of them.   She ended up getting the animated video of it too :o)




Her new jewelry box.




We got her a cd/radio boombox, and she really loved it!  Later that evening she was in her room listening to the radio.  I have a feeling this might be a regular occurrence now :o)
