Another Birthday

OK I know I said I would get to Grace's birthday the other day. So here I am.

This little peanut is 9 now. My babies are all growing so fast. Well she is the reason I didn't do parties this year, other than the surprise party for Alice. Grace was baptized in May. So I put a lot of work all Spring into making her dress and planning the open house

.

So for Grace birthday she asked for a ham dinner and sugar cookies. So in the 90 degree heat 2 days in a row I heated up the house baking for my birthday girls. Grace has been changing her likes a bit for awhile now. Her fave color for years has been pink and now she is leaning towards blue. So her cookies were frosted in both. Se got her bag of $1 goodies and daddy brought her flowers. She was most excited by birthday $$. Every since Alice bought her own DS all of the kids are saving for their own now. So here are some pics of this birthday baby.

Oh and a few people have emailed me and asked about the birthday crown. Well I think I got it at Party City for just a couple $'s. In case you couldn't see what it says on each candle is another letter and it spells out "Happy Birthday". Of course being a teen Alice doesn't really like it, but she wears it to please mom for a few pics. Grace I couldn't pry it off her most of the day. And on that note I am off to get school lessons going!
