Addy is 7



Yesterday was Addison's Birthday. It is hard for me to believe that she is 7! Time flies! This year Addy decided instead of having a birthday party at the house she wanted to go and do something. With her birthday in the middle of winter our options were limited. However after talking with Addy she sure had some good ideas-winter or not! She finally decided that she wanted to go tubing up at Brianhead with some friends.(I had to convince her that skiing with her friends at this age would not be as fun as she thinks it would! Maybe one day-Maybe.) The tubing hill at Brianhead is fun and unique in the fact that it has 6 tubing lanes and they pull you up on the tube-NO WALKING UP THE HILL! Now that is my kind do fun! Since Addy's birthday was on Monday we did this adventure on Saturday with a few of her friends-Brooklynn, Malia,Eliana,Caroline, and of course Dawson. The kids had a blast and we enjoyed watching them. Since Bryan was going to be gone on her actual birthday we had a Superbowl/Addy party for the whole family. It was so fun. She loves the spotlight.
It is a tradition in our house that on your birthday not only do you get to pick what you want for Breakfast but you get to eat it in bed. So Addy chose bacon and eggs!
Cheers to the Birthday girl!
That afternoon I got to go to her class and bring in a treat. Addy got to bring in her favorite book and read it to the class. She chose Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy. She loves the Fancy Nancy books. She did a great job reading to the class. She also got to bring in her favorite toy, she chose her crafty Cuttle kids. It is like a kids cutter. After her little show and tell we had her treat, doughnuts with pink frosting and sprinkles along with milk!

That night she wanted her favorite, Fettuccine Alfredo with salad. Addy has blessed our lives in many ways and we are so grateful to have her as our daughter. She adds spice, spunk, sass and love to our home! Love ya Addy Rae Rae!!!!!

Happy Birthday Addy! She is a doll and it looks like you know how to treat her on her birthday with breakfast in bed and everything! I think my boys would have something to say about her marrying that Hayden boy!!
