Of sleepover's and such.....

We celebrated Samantha's 9th birthday in style...if you call 6 crazy 8-11 yr olds stylish.:)

Her day started out with.....BIRTHDAY PANCAKES!:) A 

tradition in our family. Bed head and all.

After doing her hair, we gave her 1 present for her actual birthday.....

Which you can tell by her expression, she loved.
This girl is a shoe person..oh dear.

Later that night, she opened her gifts from us, Nani and Papi, and Barnabas and Marissa.
They included, Girl legos, this shirt, some skinny jeans, another shirt, and some rocking cheetah pants that are
too small.:(

ON Friday  night after her birthday, her 6 little friends came over and
for 2 hours, there was not a quiet place in this house.:) Tyson and the boys even left for a while.:)

Beside all the sugar, the frosting sugar cookies calmed them down for about 1/2 hour anyway..
until the sugar
hit.

Birthday Girl.

Her FAVORITE present ever,ever,ever.
Talia made a hit.

Sam and Natalie have been friends since they were born. In fact, I have a picture
of them lying next to each other on the hospital bed when Natalie was born 6 weeks after Sam.:)

Olivia

New friend, Faith. She is hilarious and super sweet.

Rhea, our used-to-be backdoor neighbor

These two together...a HOOT, I tell you.

Sam and Kate.
The cute little petite 3rd grader.
(no, sam is NOT wearing a veil, it's the curtain)

One sister. :) the other was in bed at this point, since it was 10:30pm:)

Then we spent the next hour doing everyone's make-up.
. My beautiful girl.

The whole crew of make-overs.
She had a blast and this mom isn't doing another sleep over for a while...
or until next month, when it's Cassie's turn.
AHHHHH.:)
