My mom, Darci and her family all came to town for the weekend to celebrate. We did dinner, played banana grams and ate dessert! It meant the world to me to have them all here with me on my special day!
Trey was much to busy watching Thomas the Train on Taylor's Ipod Touch to stop and sing to his Auntie Heather :) Without so much as a breath of fresh air, we began a week long celebration of Miss Maddie's 6th birthday! Every year, I try to figure out a way to celebrate on just one day but it just never works out that way. The girls love it, but I have to tell you that by the end of the week- I'm exhausted! It's worth it though to see their excitement and fun they have during the week.
We started with a family/friend dinner party!And then turned around and had a birthday dinner of chicken wings and fettuccine with Grandma Kathy. She got a big hug after a very exciting gift was opened.
Who doesn't want a wheelchair for their birthday?
On her actual birthday, Maddie got a new American Girl Doll, Kanani. She, Julie and Kanani have been inseparable ever since.
We asked Maddie what she'd like to do for dinner on her birthday. We went to bed thinking we were going to Olive Garden but we were informed in the morning that she "Just wasn't feeling it" for Olive Garden and could she please have Subway for dinner?
That next weekend, we had her friends from school over for a Justin Bieber birthday party. It was fun to see who she's made a connection with at school and to watch her interact with them. I was impressed by her choices! The party was mellow and all the girls were really polite and nice to one another!

I'm not sure how she's become so obsessed with this boy but she L.O.V.E.S. him!
We also played musical notes to one of Justin Biebers songs.
And then played keep your balloon moving to another one (I love that they love to play these easy, simple games over and over again!)

And because we had that beautiful stretch of weather we went on a scavenger hunt around the house to find our treasure of silly string! The kids had an absolute blast spraying one another!
And Maddie's other request? A Justin Bieber Pinata of course! 
We even took a walk to the marina! What a beautiful February day!
Happy Birthday Madison Sue Myers! We love you!
