She's Nine!

For a few precious years of a little girls life there is an understood "No Boys Allowed" when it comes to the party scene. When they're little they want the boys there because they still like boys. When they get older they want them there because they again like boys. But as a parent, I for one, am treasuring the in-between years.

This was one of those years.


Marissa, Eryn, Jessica, Savannah, Carrie, and Taylor (in front)
Picture a little blurry (they wouldn't hold still very long!)
Pizza, cupcakes, karaoke, doing fingernails, dancing, playing games that involved bubblegum and candy, and just acting like crazy girls. It was fun, and lets face it, what boy in their right mind would have wanted to be there? Even her brothers took a leave of absence and headed for Dallin's house.
We went to the Rainforest Cafe for dinner that night, just as our little family. Grayson honed right in on Savannah's dessert and, being the sweet and generous person that she is, she let him.

We love you Savannah! You bring us so much joy!

Happy Happy birthday you sweet thing. I can't even believe that you are 9years old. It just seems like yesterday when you moved in next door and you had your short curly curly hair, and you were very shy. Wow how time flies. You are beautiful and have grown so much. We love you and miss you!

Jee, I can't believe she's so old. Time just flies.

And, Steph, I think I may have to stop reading your blog. You're making me miss you guys too much. Haha.

Savannah's haircut is so cute! It was fun to see Rich a couple days ago, even if if was just for the evening. I bet you're glad to get him back. Tell Savannah and the rest that we all miss you. Have fun with Bryce.
