another birthday post

Rachel's birthday party was on Saturday, but on her actual birthday, Tuesday, we had another celebration.

Rachel got to choose what she wanted to do for dinner, and instead of going to a restaurant she decided she wanted to eat Kraft Mac and Cheese at home.  (???)  We couldn't believe it, because she loves going out, but that's what we had.  Grandma was here, and she bought barbeque for the rest of us, but Rachel and Rebecca enjoyed their mac and cheese immensely!

After dinner she opened presents.
 


Her presents from us included the drawing classes I mentioned before, plus some spring/summer clothes (not too exciting, but she needed them), some sticker sets, and her favorite gift:

She also got to choose if she wanted a cupcake (since I had already made her cake, I wasn't going to make another one) or go get ice cream.  She chose the ice cream.


She had a fun day and said it was her favorite birthday ever, but then she decided that her birthday party last year was a little bit better.  I'm not surprised, but happy that she enjoyed her day.  Not every birthday can be as exciting as a bouncing party with all of her friends, like last year!

I can't believe she's seven!

  1. So glad that Rachel had a good birthday! Is the drawing class instead of gymnastics? This is the first time I've noticed how grown up her smile is with her new teeth - I guess I haven't looked closely when I've seen her. She looks so big! In a good way. :)
