Day 74 of 365

Today has been a funfilled day celebrating Carson's birthday.  Carson turned 7 today - she has been so excited and looking forward to this birthday for such a long time.  We decided to have a friends birthday party.  She invited five friends from school and four of them were able to attend.   She wanted to do some scrapbooking, have manicures, and a pinata.  She had the whole thing planned out - it was my job to be able to make it happen.  She is very particular about what she wants and I'm not so good at being a mind-reader at times.  However, I think this time I came through with flying colors.  Bryan came over and spent the day here for Carson's birthday.  He was able to my "gopher" during the day, running to Idaho Falls to get Carson's bike and then he put it together.  We were unable to surprise her.  She ran outside when I wasn't looking and saw Bryan putting the bike together.  We tried to convince her it was someone else's bike, but she wouldn't buy it!  She did love it though.  She has been asking for a bike for quite awhile.

My girl is finally 7!

After the awesome party, Bryan, Carson, Morgan and I went out to dinner.  Morgan left with dad to spend the rest of the week with him and Grandma and Grandpa Sant.  Carson and I will have some girl-bonding time this week.  She is really excited.
