JJ’s Birthday

We had a lot of fun celebrating JJ’s 10th birthday.  She decided to have fun Halloween cupcakes for her cake this year. We decorated them together and then I delivered them to her class.  All her friends loved them and it really made her day special.

Jennie got all dressed up for the special occasion. JJ wanted to go out for chinese for her Birthday but I had an oimportant Stake Church meeting so I cooked her favorite dinner, chicken broccoli casserole with cherry pie for dessert, instead.

She got lots of wonderful presents.  Most of them were for her American Girl Doll Jennie. 

Aunt Jennie knight the darling cape and I spent hours secretly sewing the winter outfit to go with it.

Jennie’s formal dress was a true labor of love and JJ really loved it.   Her friends the Jenkins gave her the cute shoes that go with her new outfits.  I also made a Halloween outfit which JJ wanted to save for Halloween before trying on.

She got some other fun gifts and cards from her Grandparents.  Dad had already given her his birthday present. He took her to a NFL Football game.

We went out for Chinese Friday night and had a lot of fun.

Although JJ didn’t have a big fancy party her grown up birthday was perfect for her.  She is turning in to a beautiful young lady.  We are so proud of her.
