Anna turns 8!

Is there anything more cozy than a winter birthday during a family year? I say unto you....NO!

Not only did she get a MASSIVE bag of Coco Roos for her birthday breakfast, she got to open a morning gift before school....

That's unheard of!


A new shirt to wear to school! Cute clothes are a major part of Anna's love language.


And in a fun surprise, the girls all got letters from Kylie today. They were pretty happy about it.


Everly needed a bit of help with the reading.


Anna got an extra special gift...she was over the moon and feel super loved.  Kylie was bummed she wouldn't be able to be there for Anna's baptism coming up.


Everly did a dramatic reading of Truth Restored in honor of the birthday girl. She added lots of conflict and rhyming to jazz it up.


Pot roast dinner with all the fixins for this girl!


And a beautiful strawberry cake. With a suspicious empty space left in the middle. Just the right size for....say....


A magical fabulous candle flower! Drama baby!


It plays the birthday song, really high and really fast. We tried to sing along, which sounded just like a bunch of very excited munchkins. That's a present in itself.


And then we found out that it never turns off.

Ever.

Magicalness is wearing thin.


First we will kill the psycho candle flower. Then we'll cut the cake.

Happy 8th, Anna Jane!
