Happy Birthday, Mackenzie Grace!
8 years old?! Wow! When did that happen?! Mackenzie had school on her birthday, so we made her breakfast in bed that morning. Madison was so excited to get to serve it to her! She even put a princess tiara and a Reeses on there for her! Mackenzie's class was originally supposed to go to Prairie Song on this day, which she was so excited about it. But, because of rain and thunderstorms, the field trip got postponed. When Mackenzie found out a few days before, she cried for an hour and was convinced that it was going to be the worst birthday ever. So, we tried very hard to make sure she didn't end up feeling that way! After school, we went to McDonald's to get ice cream with the Easterwood's, and then we headed to Build-a-Bear. It doesn't matter how many build-a-bear's you have, it's always fun to get another one! We ended the birthday celebrations with a few presents and singing happy birthday and blowing out candles on the cinnamon pretzels we got at the mall! It was an added bonus that G-Ma got to hang out with us since she was in Tulsa this week to help with baby Carver! At the end of the day, Mackenzie gave two thumbs up that it was a Happy birthday, after all! We are looking forward to celebrating Mackenzie's birthday with our family this weekend!
Madison picked Snow White's Palace Pet, "Berry."
Mackenzie picked this pretty purple bunny & we got her a pair of glasses so they could be twins!
Madison picked out this little American Girl doll kitty for Mackenzie. I'm pretty sure she just wanted it for herself, so she figured if she got it for Mackenzie, she could play with it too!
Jonah got an un-birthday present from G-Ma...a red motorcycle! How fun!
One of the things we gave Mackenzie is called My Faith Book. We found it when we were in Dallas for the D6 conference. It's basically like a scrapbook of your spiritual life. Mackenzie has been asking a lot of questions and we know she is close to giving her life to Christ!
Madison also got an un-birthday present...a mosaic art kit, and Mackenzie got some Mr. Sketch markers from G-Ma.
Who needs a cake when you can have cinnamon pretzels?!
That's a big breath...
She got them all!
