Mckenna's party

I'm jumping around on birthdays here...a few more pictures to share from Mckenna's big day. Her actual birthday was packed with fun things. We started the day going to Pistachio's (a small hometown cafe that we love) for bagels and hot chocolate. Kel, Larsen, June and Wyatt joined us. Dave was out of town all that week, so later that evening my mom took us out to dinner. And then we met up with Kel and June at the mall to get Mckenna's ears pierced. It was what she wanted for her birthday! To see the event, go to my sister's blog, where she posted a video. I think deciding on which fake diamond earrings to choose was harder than actually getting the piercing!

Then the following evening, she had a few friends over for a slumber party. It was homemade chicken fingers for dinner, with an array of dipping sauces to choose from and a veggie platter. Then, upon Mckenna's request, I made a Christmas tree cake to celebrate with. Later that evening Dave came up with some games that he played in the basement with them. After a movie and a bunch of chit chatting, I think they finally fell asleep close to 11pm! And up around 6am. I think they all had a blast...

















And, Happy Birthday, Dad!! His birthday is today.
