Lauren's Birthday Celebrations


Well, better late than never.  Lauren had a birthday about a week and a half ago.  We celebrated on her actual birthday, then she had a sleep over party on Saturday night. 



She wanted to open one gift Friday morning before school.  She opened Addison's gift, this Digi Bird.  It's quite lovely how it sings and chirps all day long.  


Then she ended up opening all her birthday gifts...why not?  In her Christmas PJ's after all! 



This girl has begged for MU clothing, and much to my dismay, I can't seem to steer her towards KU stuff :( So, I bought her a MU zip up jacket that is just her style.  


Then on Saturday night she had her sleepover party with one other friend, Grace. 


Grace had a birthday a few days before Lauren, so we sang happy birthday to the two of them! 



We had a ton of fun things planned for the night! 


The girls started off getting their nails done! 


It was only $5 to polish their nails, and they both got the cutest flower design on each of their hands. 


Then we hit the mall for the trampoline jump thing!  


Next up was dinner at Costa Vida. 


Look at that order of nachos!  Lauren ate most of it (of course.)  The girls both had electronics with them and recorded a lot of the activities throughout the night.  It was so fun to sit in the front seat of the car and listen to them talk, record themselves, take pictures of themselves, etc.

After dinner we headed home to watch a movie, decorate cupcakes, and hang out.  

Lauren and Grace had a great time, stayed up way too late talking and giggling, and then not sleeping...

Happy 9th birthday Lauren.  I can't image how fast the next 9 years are going to go.  The first 9 years have been a roller coaster of excitement and fun, and let's be honest....work.  But, we would not trade it for anything.  You are an amazing daughter that we love dearly!
