Addie's Birthday

Okay - First off, it has been brought to my attention that I am a slacker mom and blog more about the boys than Addie. So - here's a props to Addie and blog dedicated to her! Sorry Ad! Okay. Addie turned 8 this weekend! She had a very busy weekend with more festivities this coming weekend too. . . You only turn 8 once right? This first picture is her "friend" party. She first had her friend Brooke here on Friday night and took her miniature golfing - it was a riot. Then we had this HSM 3 party on Saturday for non-family. I have never had that many little girlies here giggling about musical pillows before. It was so fun for Matt and I to watch them. Adorable. After naps for the boys - we took Addie on a Parent-date to go get some lunch at the restaurant of her choice. Thanks to the Javiers for watching the boys! Addie picked Red Robin, to of course order macaroni and cheese. . . We also got to take her to pick her birthday present from Grandpa and Grandma Davis - her first set of "real" adult scriptures. Her birthday was actually on Sunday but we wanted her to have them for that day (Sun.) at church. She was adorable being so excited to bring her own scriptures and to use them at church. After church - she got to pick dinner and dessert. I make a vanilla cake with special peanut butter frosting for her every year. She LOVES it. She also of course had a new outfit to wear to church that day. . . That girl loves to shop with me - We went shopping a little earlier in the week to find the new clothes. . . Anyway - I'm really scatterbrained with my thoughts today.. . We just had so much fun with her on her extended birthday weekend.

Friend party . . .

Addie was given a personalized bead jewelry kit from a friend for her birthday. Here is her awesome dad helping her put together a best friends bracelet. He seriously rocks.

This picture epitomizes Addie. What more can I say?

Happy birthday Addie! Matt and I cannot believe that our daughter is 8. Which by the way - she now wants to know when she can get a cell phone. . . Yikes.
