7 year old birthday girl

7 years old!  How is it possible?  We celebrated her birthday at home in the morning...then she went to a birthday party for a classmate..and then we went to a local pizza place for dinner.

Then for her party the following week, she requested a school mascot themed cake!

And at her new gymnastics place!

She had a blast!

Snow tubing

We decided early on that we needed to make it to the mountains this winter and go tubing.  The kids were super excited about moving to North Carolina, because of the snow.  So, we wanted to get there asap and we did.  We had a blast going tubing.  I went with the 3 big kids and Richard hung out with Rinley up at the lodge.
