Now I don't remember my birthdays stretching out into a 4 day event but I guess thats the way it goes these days. Katelyn turned 8 last Thursday. We started off the day by taking sugar cookies to school, Cooper and I went and had lunch with Katelyn at school, and then after school we went to Famous Daves (Katelyn's choice of favorite dining experience) and then to Champions for some fun and games. I forgot my camera to take pics of dinner and Champions :( Katelyn was soooo excited about the giant ice cream sundae she was given at Famous Daves and then she hit several jackpots at Champions and was able to pick a very nice stuffed animal as a prize. Even Cooper won a Little Red doll. On Saturday we had a dual birthday party at Skate Zone. Katelyn's friend Hadley shares the same birthday so our families thought it we be fun to have a birthday party together. The girls decided to take donations for Messiah's outdoor classroom in lieu of gifts and they were able to raise over $300 for the cause. We then surprised Katelyn at the end of her party by telling her that her good friend Rilee was coming over for a sleepover at our house. This was a first for both girls and it was a huge success! On Sunday we had a family birthday party with yummy cake and gifts followed by dinner and games. It was an exhausting weekend but such a memorable one. We are so proud of the little girl Katelyn has become and she is soooo much fun. We can't believe she is halfway to 16 already. Lord help us!
