Abbie's 9th Birthday
Today was a great day. Abbie was so excited to have her birthday. Friday night we let her have a sleep over with a friend, Alexa, and we went to dinner at what used to be the 5 and diner and then went to the movies and saw Wall-e. Saturday Risa and Ray came up from Pocatello we hadn't seen them since they got back to the USA, so it was really great to see them. Sunday, we all woke up around 7am showered and got ready for church. Being fast sunday we didn't get breakfast (except Cierra). We waited for Grandma and Grandpa McCammon to come up and go to church with us and then left for church. After church I had a scout meeting so Bill and his mom finished up making dinner and when I got home from my meeting and Jesse got back from doing sacrament to the shut-ins we ate. For dessert Abbie didn't wan't cake she wanted lemon bars. Originally she wanted me to make lemon bars and then lemon cookies in the same size pan (like bar cookies) then put the cookie on top of the lemon bar and cut. It seemed redundant so I talked her out of it and baked a cherry pie instead. We put candles in the lemon bars and sang happy birthday and then let her open presents. She got a bull frog webkinz from gma and gpa Christensen, 2 shirts and a pair of jeans from gma and gpa McCammon, and from Jesse, Cierra, Bill and I she got 3 pairs of earrings, a Abby Hayes book and another webkinz, a pink kitty. She was very excited! Thanks Everyone.
On a side note at 4pm the high councilor from our ward came over and gave Jesse a stake youth calling to be on the Youth Activity Committee for the stake. That should be fun for him if he really gets involved in it. He'll be set apart next week at the first meeting.
Grandpa and Grandma left shortly after Brother Brower left and we just enjoyed our evening together.
Here's a picture of Abbie with some of her gifts.
