Birthday and Baby Shower

Saturday, April 21st brought us two very exciting family events. We were awakened ever so early by a very excited birthday girl. First Grader turned seven and was sure we needed to be out of bed in order to properly celebrate. In hindsight, I guess she was right. With doughnuts for breakfast, the unveiling of her new lime-green DS, and the presentation of her annual birthday flowers from her daddy (My Husband gets each of the girls flowers in the number they are turning every birthday. He's so sweet!) we shifted gears to exciting family event of the day number two- baby shower for my adorably cute and very pregnant sister-in-law. She looked adorably cute as usual. I actually won a game at the shower because I was so busy checking out how cute she looked when we were 'supposed' to be looking at assorted baby items on a tray. The questions ended up being all about my sister-in-law and not at all about what was on the tray, so I nailed them all! Baby shower all wrapped up, we headed back to Nana's house for a birthday dinner party for First Grader, celebrated with cake and lots of presents, and then packed up and headed home. Happy day all around.
