Eight Already...


 We celebrated Sis's birthday Saturday in true Sis style. She was talked out of a 'spa' party (maybe next year) as I bribed her with a trip to her new favorite place, the American Girl store and Bistro. We took her two close friends, Ali and Cassidy for a girl day. We shopped, had a delicious lunch, and went ice skating at the Galleria. The girls got along fabulously for 6 hours straight and cried when it was time to part. Grandma and Grandpa Crosby joined in the festivities in the evening with presents, cake and ice cream. Sis ended the day quite emotional (once again in true Sis style); her birthday wasn't long enough, how come it was such a short day, I'm not ready to go to bed... you get the idea. 


A true piece of work, our only female offspring. I will whole-heartedly continue to stand behind the truth that she is my most difficult child but also my easiest, isn't that what hormones do? She is a shy, hilarious, creative, emotional, loud, sensitive, loyal, wonderful child of God. We love our precious little (8, really?) girl!

WOW 8...and the american doll store!! NICE!!!

But that pic of Asher...I'm a little concerned for his oxygen intake, while he's in there. I hope you didn't close it!!

Asher already lacks brain cells so it couldn't do more danger! No, we love our boy!!!

Actually there were hole punched sized holes all over it, it wasn't closed, and he was only in it for a second before he was vaulted out!

Ha! Lovin' Asher in the bag. True Asher style. :) And happy birthday to the Mace. We can't wait to see her (and you!) in TWO WEEKS! Love, Mara

PS: Am I a bad mom because neither of my girls own an American Girl? They've never shown much interest...

Happy Belated Birthday Macy! It is hard for me to swallow that she is 8. I remember teaching her primary class and she was 5. Where does the time go? It sounded like she had amazing birthday and did some awesome activities. WoW! The AG store is Mackenzie's dream to go their, she has 3 dolls. Thanks for sharing the darling pictures of her the birthday girl.
