Episode 30 - My 6th Birthday!

My mom asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I told her A PARTY with my friends.
Well...I didn't get what I wanted. In fact the day was a bit boring.
First off, I had to go to school! I did take treats to share with my class and one other girl, Selena, had her birthday the same day too. When I got home, Mom was busy giving piano lessons so the two kids next door came and played a little.
Daddy didn't get home until almost 7 o'clock, but he did bring me an awesome surprise!!
FLOWERS and BALLOONS!!!!!

After we ate the pizza he also brought we did the birthday "party" at home with just my family.
This was my cake. It wasn't really a cake. I don't think mom understood me that morning. But...oh well...it was really good anyway. I WANTED lemon bread, I just didn't think it would still LOOK like lemon bread. It was fun to put the candles on though!

Here's me with the candles all lit!

And here's me blowing out my candles! (They are such weird looking pictures. Why does everyone take a "blowing-out-the-candles picture anyway??)

I got some cards in the mail! One from my Great Aunt Karen and Uncle Dennis. They live in Fargo, ND. And one from Nana and Papa! (I also got one the next day from Grandmama and Grandpapa Jones too.) And the best part of them...THEY ALL HAD MONEY IN THEM!!!!! THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU!!
Nana's card made me laugh! She said something about me being a LITTLE LADY! Hehe, I thought that was so funny for some reason!

Well...as with any kid I'm sure, the best part of a birthday is definitely OPENING PRESENTS!!

I got lots of Littlest Pet Shop stuff from the Christenson's. THANK YOU!
And there's little pets in there too.

I got a turtle I didn't have yet from the Swenson's. I also got an AWESOME pillowcase with Littlest Pet Shop material that Aunt Jill made. (But my mom didn't have a picture of that.) I LOVE IT! I sleep on it every night!!! THANK YOU TOO!

From my family I got a little pet shop game.
HMM. Lots of little pet shop stuff I guess.

From the Cooks I got some AWESOME markers and coloring books. Not just regular ones...these are EXTRA fun ones!! THANK YOU TOO!
I hopped in and played with those first actually. Even before I had some of my "cake".

Cassee didn't waste any time either. She started playing with my new little pets.
But that's okay...I love her and always share with her anyway! (At least mom makes me even if I don't want to.)
Her birthday is in a couple weeks. I think I'll get to play with her new presents too!!!!! hehe

  2. Nice surprise from Daddy! I like that your gifts came in large boxes, too! Celebrating birthdays at home with the whole family is as exciting and fun as celebrating it with your friends. I'm glad you have enjoyed your party, even if it didn't turn out the way you wanted. Sometimes, unexpected happenings are more favorable than what we have in our heads. Wish you more birthdays to come! :)
