Alyssa's 7th Birthday Party!!

All I can say is, thank God birthday's come around once a year!! We ended up having 2 parties for Alyssa. Last night my parents came over for "birthday supper" and she opened gifts from the family. Then today after school, she had 8 friends come over. The weather was cold and rainy so there was no pool party like we had originally planned but I still made them all go outside and we played Red Rover and freeze tag! They had a blast! We decorated cakes and opened presents! Now everyone's gone and I get left with a mess to clean up (actually it's not that bad) and packing to do for Vegas. Here are some pictures of her big days!!! Oh and her real birthday isn't til tomorrow! We will be celebrating by driving 4 hours to Vegas!! LOL!!

She got cowboy boots from grandma and grandpa Wootton for her horse riding lessons!

We got her rollerblades!!
Brooklyn realizing not all the presents are for her! She got a watch from grandma and grandpa and thought there should be more! This is a typical reaction from her lately...ugh!

Testing out the blades! Grandma and Grandpa also got her the protective gear!

Blowing out the candle on her Skor cake that I made from scratch!!

Holding up 7 fingers!
