Emery's 7th Birthday

 Emery turned 7 this year.  She is so excited about the changes that the church is making for activity days.  This means that she gets to start activity days in January and be in with Sadie for a whole year whereas before, she would have only overlapped about 6 weeks or so with Sadie.  I'm so glad about that.  :)  Also, she has another friend with a December birthday that gets to move up with her.  Score!

Her birthday was low key. (that was a theme this year!)  We just hung out at home and went to our ward Christmas party that night. 

 Here she is opening her first present of the day. 

 The traditional running through the streamers!

 Her present that she opened was fizzygloop.  She got to make some slime that had a fizzy reaction.  It actually didn't work very well, but she had fun with it.

 It took us a few hours (not working the whole time) to finish all the colors.  

 SEVEN!

Her cute friend from the neighborhood was so nice and got Emery a gift.  It was this fun card game.  

 

We sure love our Emery.  She keeps us on our parenting toes for sure.  She's got strong emotions and loves to be creative.  She is learning the piano and doing great.  She loves making surprises for people and has lots of friends.  Happy seventh birthday!!!
