Birthday Girl!




Karis turned 7 yesterday! We had her friend party last week and boy was that an experience. I let her invite whoever she wanted thinking we'd have 6 or 7 girls. Well she ran out of invitations and just started inviting little girls from her class to come. So we had a houseful of screaming and happy girls. My the screams are shrill at age 7! She had requested a Tangled theme so that was what we did. She wore a long blond braid and a tiara. The cupcakes were multi-colored to represent that painting Tangled does. We also did lizard sun catchers to represent the painting and Pascal the lizard. They made sand art bracelets too. We played pass the baby Tangled to the tune of Tangled music. And then had cheese zombies for dinner. That was her request. It was a really fun time and the next day she told me how much she LOVED her party, so that made it all worth it!

Yesterday I took her to Red Robin during school for lunch. Then I brought cupcakes to school. Then Emmett and Hannah came over and we did gifts (she got the cute tutu and kitty shirt and hat from Grandma!), and then went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Brent met us there. It was a great time and the kiddos even all participated in the line dancing. Too cute. Oh Alex and Avery saw these kitty cookies about a month ago and have been dying to make them for Karis so we decided her Birthday would be a perfect day to do that. She loved them. Such a kitty lover she is!!

Totally Karis! Wouldn't want anyone to feel left out. You should read her the part in Bezus and Ramona when Ramona decides to throw a party and invites her entire kindergarten party, without her mother's knowledge.
