The Bug Turns Nine

On September 22, 2003 God blessed me with a perfectly precious baby girl.... on September 22, 2012 she turned nine!! Holy crap.... that went by fast!!!! This year her birthday fell on a Saturday so we were able to celebrate on the actual day but it was hot, Hot, HOT!! One never knows what the weather is going to be like this time of year in Texas.... last year the weather was gorgeous and the year before we got flooded out! I think from now on we are going to plan to have an indoor party just to cover all our bases.

Monster High Party

My sweet chicken is growing up!! She decided that she wanted to have a Monster High makeup party.... interesting concept. We got a bunch of spray hair color, play make up, nail paint and a bunch of other 'make me pretty' stuff (thank goodness stores stock for Halloween in September).  We had about 20 little girls, a handful of adults and 2 very brave boys at the house for her party... PLUS one amazing teenage helper!!!! Over all I think everyone had a great time and Kalie enjoyed having all of her friends over to celebrate her special day!!

As my dad so kindly pointed out, this is Kalie's last year being a single digit.... from now on she will be at least a 2 digit age..... I am not ready for this.
