Happy 10th Birthday Allison Renee!









Hard to believe but our baby (Allison Renee...aka "Allie"!) turned 10 yesterday....man, the time sure does fly the older you get! ; ) We had a grand celebration this weekend, including hosting 10 little girls from her school for a slumber party (whew, that was fun and crazy!) on Friday night and then had a family party for her on Saturday. Needless to say, we were all a little tired by Sunday! Boy did we have fun though. She and her friends had a ball at their slumber party....complete with decorating purses, playing "spa/salon" with hair braiding, massages, manicures, etc, pizza, movies & popcorn and homemade blueberry pancakes when they woke up Saturday! Allie requested a guitar cake for her bday party....Mama had never made one of those and decided to take a try at it and couldn't find a pan shaped like a guitar so I improvised....didn't turn out too bad, the girls loved it so that made it worth it! Aunt Amy, Uncle Jim and the girls were so kind to host Lauren and Katelyn on Friday night so that Allie was able to really enjoy her party with her friends w/out her little sisters getting too involved! ; ) And of course, the two little ones had a great time at their house! Amy helped them bake a cake for Allie to surprise her, what a wonderful Aunt my girlies have! ; ) We all really enjoyed the weekend celebration and thank God for giving us Allie in our family....we are so blessed!
