Another Birthday Celebration

Yesterday was another grands birthday; our Miss F, Carrie's oldest girl, turned 8. Last night the whole group got together for dinner and celebrations. It was so fun; the birthday girl decided she wanted a dress up party, so most of the kiddos and some adults wore western clothes. Here are the two youngest granddaughters, in identical outfits. They both have names starting with A, so on the right is Carrie's girl and on the left is Kim's youngest daughter.

The birthday girl opening presents; our Peanut said no to western wear and choose a ballerina outfit instead.

Papa had planned to wear cowboy boots with shorts, to be a redneck, but they no longer fit; here is he holding Hunter's best buddy Lily.

Little Man; a friend asked if any of the girls have curls, the answer is yes and that they've all had ringlets but it just doesn't stay curly. It will be interesting to see if his hair remains the same.

One of the things Carrie's kiddos have decided to have at birthday parties is a Pinata-here is Miss F taking the first swing.

Instead of a cake, each person got their own cupcake and decorated it-such fun!

Of all Carrie's girls, Miss F is the most like her. A true joy to be around, always a helper and such a special girl. We look forward to watching you grow dear one. Papa and I love you so much.

It is hard to believe we are entering October; fall is definitely here and I love it. Today the roofers started putting on our new roof-at least it will only be two days of hammering. Hunter and I have already been on a walk, but he isn't quite sure about not going outside in the yard.
 I hope your week has started on a good note; enjoy this day and all the blessings it holds.

  7. Looks like a wonderful celebration! We just finished a 4 mile walk and are pooped. Me and Stanley voted and decided with all those curls we are making Little Man an honorary mini goldendoodle!

    Your Pals,

    Murphy and Stanley
