Alexa's 7th Birthday

Birthday girl in her Birthday dress!

Happy 7th Birthday Alexa! How quickly 7 years has flown by! It's hard to believe that this thin-as-a-rail girl came into the world weighing 9lbs. 11oz! Since her birthday fell on a Sunday this year, we celebrated Alexa's birthday(Nov.30) with a family party at our house-we ate her requested dinner of Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and corn (yes, Thanksgiving dinner again!) opened presents and, of course, ate this giant cupcake and ice cream. She had her "friend" birthday party (see slide show below) a few days later on Friday, Dec. 6. She had her heart set on having a Tinkerbell birthday complete with a Tinkerbell doll cake-so lucky me got to make 2 birthday cakes for her this year. My wonderful Grandma Smith, thankfully, came to assist with the Tinkerbell cake! Thanks again, Grandma-I couldn't have done it without you! For her party we went to the park, played games, and made Tinkerbell wands. We ended up with 14 girls (including Alexa). It was madness, but she had a great time! Thanks to my mom and Grandma for helping transport the girls to the park and for all your help at the party!

Happy 7th Birthday Alexa
