seven is heaven

Our Kate was so excited to ring in her seventh year that she got up for the day at 3am. You can imagine our fear - of what might lay ahead for day for party goers and family alike but luckily adrenaline seemed to pull her through. Well until 4pm, when she agreed to a cuddle with her Papa and dropped off for a well deserved nap. And this morning she woke very late and very sick. Seems she's caught the pneumonia that her Mama is suffering with.  Poor baby. So no skiing for the ladies this Sunday. It was boys only on the hill today.

We had a lovely morning and birthday party. Love not hosting the party at our place - it was a little gift to myself.

Let's take a peek...

 

The kids always love to wake up to a birthday table!

  

And Kate always loves to be surprised with silly string. Although this year Elliott and I seemed to get the brunt of the attack.

 Present time. A little stroller from her brother.

 She likes it!

 Nail Art from Grammie Janice and Grampie Paul. In her sick state I just painted ten little rainbows on her ten little fingers.

 And now for the best gift ever... A trip to Disney World this March break. Yahoo! I got a great video of the reveal but it's just too large for this site. Or I'm too limited in my technological abilities.

 Party time and a pile more presents form her buds, Aunty Candace, Lydia and Grammie Donna.

 Time to make some pizzas.

 Sugar time.

 

Lydia getting busy.

  

Kate getting silly opening presents.

 Awesome was the theme to this seventh party. Kate loves referring to herself as our awesome genius so I decided to go with it.

 

Our toothless Kate - the star of our day - happy happy birth day and a wonderful seventh year!

We love you so much.

  

A special thanks to the islanders who made the day trip in less than stellar conditions. 

Thanks so much - it was great to visit even if for a short while.

XOXO CAKE
