Turning 9 is mighty Fine!



Sierra is 9, can you believe it? Me neither. Her birthday was on Sunday so I felt a little bad for her. Michael had early morning meetings so she had to wait until 4pm to open presents, and she was sooo excited. She requested a Crab dinner for her birthday and it was fun. We put butcher paper down on the table and threw baked potatoes, corn on the cob and crab legs right on the table, it was great. In all actuality she likes digging out the crab meat more than eating it. I hope she goes back to her usual favorite spaghetti soon--much easier and cheaper! She got "Rebecca" the American girl doll. She was so excited, and I have to admit I could hardly wait for her to get it, I've been excited since I ordered it a month ago! Sierra is so sweet, so easygoing, so loving, so smart and so silly. She really is such a peacemaker and happy girl, our family is better because she is a part of it for sure. Oh--and her flair for fashion keeps us in stitches still!

Oh, how fun! I am going to have to remember that butcher paper dinner idea. American Girl dolls are the best! Lucky you, you still have little girls who can appreciate them.
Happy Birthday Sierra!
