8 years ago!

I can't believe it was 8 years ago that we were anxiously awaiting the arrival of our first baby girl!  And what a special one she is! 

Her birthday weekend was a marathon of events and was so much fun!

Thursday, January 13th:  She woke up to a new outfit and a bouquet of 8 balloons.  We went to her school for lunch, and Curtis got to stay and celebrate treats with her class!  Bryan, Kristall and family came over for cake and presents - after a shrimp (of sorts) dinner.
Friday:  Nonna flew in, Morgan had a bounce crew performance at the girls HS basketball half-time show (so darn cute).  Cousin Sloan and friend Paige slept over.
Saturday:  Nice breakfast, then off to see the movie "Tangled" followed by Baskin Robbins ice cream with 13 kids (and four adults).  Sloan slept over again (and Mimi).  Curtis and I went out to celebrate a friends birthday in downtown Austin.
Sunday:  Lunch out and then attend the Circus - SOO awesome!
Monday:  No school, hanging out, took Nonna back to the airport!

It was a wonderful weekend, but I am glad for some down time!  Thank you ALL for the calls, emails and presents!  She loved receiving them all!

I always look to see if there is something new and loved the blog about the kids and your poor eye!
Love you!
