#7 for Morgan!

Today was Morgan's 7th birthday.  The only day of the year she pops out of bed at 6:45 with a smile on her face!  She opened her gifts before school.  We had cake late after Bible Study.  I think she had a good day.  I remember the day she came home from the hospital my dogwood tree was in bloom.  We aren't quite there yet this year.  I will post some pictures of her gift opening to document the day.
 Shelby's gifts
When we were back home at Spring Break we spent a few hours with my friend Kim who has 2 girls their ages.  The 4 of them decided they were going to be pen pals.  So I made some homemade stationary with Hello Kitty and Monkeys.  I made some return address labels and bought her a sheet of Pixar Movie stamps they saw at the post office.  Found the perfect monkey folder to put it all in.
 A purple sparkly binder I turned into a recipe book for my little cook/baker
 more homemade gifts for my little teacher
 I made her a behavior chart, class list chart, library cards for Kit Kittridge & Ruthie Smithens complete with photo id's.
I picked up another binder for her to keep some of her school papers in when she is playing teacher.
she loved this monkey paper
 she's been waiting a long time for the AG doll kit with crutches, casts and so much more
 it was good to see that 7 years later the tongue still makes an appearance
 every injured doll needs a wheelchair
 She got the slide to go with the new swing set from last summer!
 and a new bike
her first one that has not been a hand me down
 quick test drive before school
 annual flower/balloon delivery from Papa & Nonny Moe
 she wanted funfetti cake with this crazy purple frosting
 her 7 candles weren't quite as easy as the 1 in her cinnamon roll this morning
her asthma lungs took 3 tries to get them all
at least she held her hair back so she didn't catch it on fire
Aunt Ashley left her some cinnamon roll cake she made, some candy, a balloon & a note for a day of choice.  Our friend Beth Ann brought her THREE loaves of pumpkin bread to Bible Study and totally made her day!
We will do it again in 2 weeks for Shelby and then in 3 for their party.  Tis the season.  Happy Birthday Morgan Aaron!  You've made the last 7 anything but boring.
