Happy Birthday Paige!

After getting back from Orlando, we hit the ground running.  Our schedule was filled with school parties, parades, Halloween parties, soccer games, and of course, the best of all Paige's 7th Birthday!



Following our celebration in Disney, we just had a family party at home.  Paige requested pancakes for a special meal, so Dave and I took her to IHOP for a free scary face pancake that they were giving to all kids. 

In between soccer games on Saturday, Paige opened her presents.  She got a Slurpee gift card and silly bandz picked out by her dad.  She also got a new coat and a 3 Webkinz gift pack.  Her Grandpa and Grandma Smith sent her a new outfit and she also got a card with money from Great-Grandpa and Grandma Church to go with the charm bracelet she got at Disney from her Aunt Debby.  She was pretty spoiled and very happy.

And even though it was Halloween weekend and we were on sweets-overload already, you can't have a birthday without cake.  At Paige's request, I made a chocolate-covered strawberry cake.  It was pretty yummy.



Oh and just to make sure that we didn't have one second of free time this weekend, Paige was selected to be the student of the week.  This means that we had to make a poster for her to take to school on Monday:
