Seventh Heaven

Happy 7th Birthday to my Brown Eyed Girl!


You, my love, are the bravest person I have ever known. Your smile is infections. You light up every room you are in. You are amazing and creative and original. Each day that passes, I am in constant awe at the wonderfully, beautiful young lady you are becoming.

She has had a wonderful Birthday so far! She kicked it off by heading to the American Girl Doll store with Grandma Rhonda for a very special new purchase!


A little overwhelmed and oozing with excitement, she wondered the store soaking it all in! Just FYI, these doll guys thought of pretty much everything!!


Grandma was probably just as excited as the Birthday Girl. Mom was having heart palpitations from sticker shock.


Hmmm... there was one section I would consider splurging on...


Of course, AG was all sold out of the Just Like Me doll that looked the most like our Brown Eyed Girl. Rather than leave empty handed - cause that would have been a total let down - we ventured over to the Be Forever dolls. These dolls come with a name and a story already in place. My Brown Eyed Girl latched onto this little pretty doll named Rebecca. She came in a purple dress, loves to sing and be on the stage performing - sounded like a perfect fit!


She also got a little AGD Kitten thanks to Aunt Christi.

Shopping made us hungry! We walked across the way for a girls-night-out Birthday Dinner. We get ready to be seated and the hostess asked us if we needed a chair for her American Girl Doll... kudos amazing marketing professional, you are brilliant. 

So, Rebecca joined us for dinner.  


The novelty of Rebecca was up bright and early the next morning at 5:00 am!!!

 

We were not quite sure what the predicted snow storm would do this week. So, this mom stayed up late baking two dozen homemade cupcakes just in case school didn't get cancelled. 

But of course... it was!!



Snow Day Birthday!!!

Birthday Girl wanted pancakes for breakfast!


We spent the whole day in our jammies. 
We ate a lot of frosting by frosting all of those cupcakes. All signs were pointing to school the next day, so we had to finish the decorations.


Mr Blue Eyes has mad sprinkle skills!


I was a tiny bit super excited to finally get to use the new cupcake holder I got for Christmas. Probably my favorite gift this year. 


Amazing huh!?!?

22 delicious Frozen themed cupcakes ready for school!


After dinner, we taste tested those cupcakes. It was a good thing I baked all those little cupcakes because otherwise our Brown Eyed Girl would be blowing her candles out of a mini sugar donuts. Having been snowed in all day, I never made it to the store as "planned" for a small cake, balloons, or last minute gifts. Surprised?? Of course I waited until the last minute. Mother Nature, you think you are sooooo funny!


Fire extinguisher close by, we all sang Happy Birthday to our sweet Birthday Girl. 



Just in time, she blew out all 7 candles and made a glorious wish!


I pray her wishes all come true. I pray that 7 brings her a wonderful year filled with smiles, love, laughter, health and joy. 


Happy Birthday Beautiful Brown Eyed Girl!
