It is really unbelievable to think of Gracy turning 7. She is a lot of things: hilarious, cute, smart, energetic, sweet, strong-minded, outgoing, talented... but one of the things I love the most is that she has always been my BABY girl. Every year on her birthday I think back to when she loved to cuddle up in my arms and sleep or sing to me. Now she thinks she is soooo big (she tries so hard to be just like her big sister). She is growing up so fast. I am so thankful to be her mom. She has a very unique spirit that I love so much.
This year we celebrated her birthday with an amazing Carnival in our backyard. There was a bounce house, a cotton candy machine, popcorn, tons and tons of goodies, prize boothes, and six different carnival game boothes! Oh, and we also had a special performance by an amazing juggler (her dad). She invited all her friends from her primary class, our neighbor friends, and her entire class from school. I'm telling you, it was so much fun!!! I couldn not have done it without the incredible help of Grandma Bonnie, Kendra, Chelsey, Preston, Dan, Brent, and Lexy & Nicole. Thanks so much for all your help.
One comment I heard from a little boy as he ran past me was "Now THiS is a PARtY!!!" It made my day. It truly was. Happy Birthday Gracy.
This is Gracy trying her luck at the fish pond. Lexy & Nicole were in charge of this boothe & they had a blast hooking prizes onto the end of the fishing pole.
Friends: Julia, Gracie, Gracy, Lucy, Savannah, Carson, & Whitney throwing darts to pop the balloons so they could win a stuffed animal.
Super Amazing, and really delicious cupcake cake. Aunt Kendra made them special for Gracy to have a carnival theme. Don't they look just like popcorn. (they are marshmallows!)
The juggling show. The kids really thought this was cool. He's juggling real eggs over Gracy. She really hoped he wouldn't drop them on her.
