Here is the Big Birthday Girl on her 6th Birthday. She was so excited and couldn't wait until today. She kept begging all day long to let her open her cards and presents. It was a very hard and long wait until 6 pm at night to open presents.We surprised(or tried to) her by going to her classroom and taking Little Debbie cakes for her and her classmates after lunch. We sang happy birthday to her and then she got home and was so worn out because she woke up at 6:00 am that she fell fast asleep on the couch for 2 hours. We made a salad and awaited our dinner. Megan told us that she wanted Pizza for her dinner and cake. She also wanted to invite Brother and Sister Sefren (or other wise known as Grandma and Grandpa Sefren) over for dinner. The Sefrens are an older couple in our ward whom the girls love and they love the girls, the have been designated as our surrogate grandparents. We love them!!!!
When I called to invite her she asked if they could bring the pizza so we had pizza provided by the Sefrens from Costco for dinner, salad and then enjoy carrot cake with homemade cream cheese frosting. YUM!!!!
Megan blowing out the candles. I didn't do anything spectacular this year for her cake. Last year I made a huge castle cake and the year before that a cookie monster cake and the year before that another cookie monster cake. The year before that we bought a cookie monster cake.
This is Megan and Kaylee snuggled up next to Grandma and Grandpa Sefren. Marion was great and did not want a picture taken because she thought her hair hadn't been done. She told me not to show anybody at church her picture. So if anybody from the ward is looking at this please to comment to Marion. I don't think anyone from church has my blog except maybe one or two so if you do-you never saw this picture. :)
Megan opening her gifts. We bought her a ballerina card game. Her and Kaylee were having a lot of fun with it.
Ballerina Magnetic wooden doll from the Sefrens.
My parents sent Megan this Adorable dress. It is soooo pretty!!! Thanks Mom and Dad, Megan loves it. She can't wait to wear it to school tomorrow. She also loved the box of chocolates you sent to her. She shared all of them but 2. She ate one, Kaylee had one, Elizabeth had one and the Sefrens each had one. She is saving the other one for tomorrow after school. They were a big hit. Thanks!!!
Scott's Mom had a lot of fun sewing this dress for Megan. It is so pretty. It's hard to see the details in the picture but there are little jewels all over the skirt and sleeves. Megan loves it, It looks like a beautiful Homecoming Dress. Thanks Carol for all your hard work. It's awesome. She also made a matching dress for Megan's baby doll. I didn't get a picture of her in them yet but I will and I will post it later. She tried it on but Elizabeth was going crazy and I didn't think about taking a picture of her in it until after she was asleep.
Megan with her card from Great Grandpa Calvin. Of course with her Money in it. She tried to count it but couldn't quite figure it out. She knew she had a $10, a $5 and a $1. I asked her how much they make together and she stopped and thought about it."Mom, I have $100 dollars!!!!" It was very cute.
I love you Megan. I can't believe that you are now 6 years old. You completely changed my life knowing when I was pregnant to you and the day that you were born!!!!! Thank you for the joy, the craziness, all the new experiences you bring into our lives. I love you, thank you sooooo much!!!!! You are truly a gift from Heavenly Father.
