The birthday party


Scott has started a new tradition with Janae for her birthday presents. The last two years he has gotten her a shirt and she has loved them. It looks like he will have to continue this in the years to come.
Janae is not much a cake fan, so she decided to have fruit pizza instead. She had been looking forward to the dessert for several weeks, but when the time came to eat it, she didn't like it. Apparently it wasn't very good, only one of the kids actually ate theirs. Oh well, I tried.

Jane and Addyson in bed after opening a few presents. All Janae had been talking about is the "littlest pet shop" toys she wants. Addyson decided to get her some.

For fun, I decided to do a scavenger hunt for the kids. Here they are at the sandbox finding one of the treats.


I made this sign and had it up when Janae got home from school. She was thrilled to see her name that big on the garage door.












The day started with breakfast in bed. Blueberry pancake and strawberries where what she requested.

Finding another one of their treats and reading the next clue.

We had four girls show up for the party. I've decided that I like small parties better than huge ones, especially if they are here at our house. I think Janae had a great day. Scott surprised her by showing up to have lunch with her, a highlight of her day. Her teacher told me that she has never seen anyone so excited for their birthday as Janae was. It's hard to believe that she is already seven :)

Janaes' party looks like a blast. And your fruit pizza looks great! With your cooking and me being preggy, I probably would have eaten all of it. What a cute tradition with Scott and the shirts! Love your blog!
