Reagan Lee Turns "8"...

Reagan has been long awaiting this day. She has to wait until the end of the month to get baptized, and thats when we'll have a family party/get together to celebrate this very special birthday! But, it's a ways away, so, we decided to sing to her on Sunday, her actual birthday, and let her blow out 8 candles on her brownie "cake"

She opened gifts. Grandma Bonham & Oma Dunford came over to help us celebrate. She got a new Junie B. Jones book & T-shirt and...

loads of cash!?!?! Lucky!!! and...

a pink Nintendo DS (which she has saved up half the $ for, way to go Reagy Baby!)

It's always been hard for Reagan to save money! She's too much like her mother. But, she's been diligent. She's very good at paying her tithing and she's really worked hard to save enough. We're so very proud of you!
Reagan was sick most of the week and still trying to get over it on Sunday, so she was a little out of it (until the gifts came!) But, she felt so much better today. She went to school, wearing her new J.B.J. T-shirt and Mom and Eryn Jane brought blue iced sugar cookies for her class (they had to be blue). They all sang Happy Birthday to her with a little "cha-cha-pokemon" at the end, especially for her. She was all smiles. It was a good day!

Happy Birthday Reagan! We just had similar fun for Willa's birthday--and we were even (coincidentally) in San Antonio for the occasion. 8 year olds are so sweet. I loved the pictures.

Happy (late) Birthday Reagan. We can't wait to attend your baptism and give you your present. Looks like you had a yummy cake. Anything chocolate sounds good!
