Happy Happy Birthday Emma Dear

It was fun to have Tyler and Anna here the week before Emma's birthday because Emma and Ella have the same birthday and so we got to celebrate together. My mom gave both of the girls the cutest little cupcake tins and cooking accessories and so that was what they made for their cake. Then they both got beautiful dresses from Grandma and Grandpa too. We had a great time together.

Then for Emma's real birthday she got to invite a friend to go with us to where ever she wanted. She of course invited Marin and we went bowling, went home and watched the Wizard of Oz and then Marin slept over. It was a fun night.

The next day was Emma's performance. Talk about a fun birthday...not only did she get to dance for an audience on her birthday, she was also in a parade! AND if that isn't special enough she ended up getting to ride on the roof of the dance teachers car with the dance teachers daughter McKenna! They looked like they were royalty! They were sticking up through the sun roof. Emma did a great job on her performance. She can't stop doing her dance, everywhere we go she is tap dancing :)

I can't believe my little girl is 7 and that next year she will be getting baptized! She has grown into such a beautiful and talented young lady. I am so impressed with how mature she is. She and I are realizing we are so alike...we both get a kick out of organizing our rooms, and another similarity is we love putting things together. I bought an outside patio set and brought it home to put together. Emma was right there with me every step of the way. We almost had the chairs put together and one of the last steps was to put the base with the main seat. Inside I was thinking how exciting this part was to see the project come together and Emma said the exact same thing out loud! She is so fun to be with and I love her so much! Happy Birthday Emma!








Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Rose for the awesome books! Emma has become quite the reader so this was the perfect gift!


I LOVE these boots and this dress...I guess you could say I am living through my daughter! That is something I would totally wear if I could pull it off :)

She is such a gem! It's so fun to see them grow up and become these real people with real personalities. I really like hers!

Happy Birthday, Emma! Your card will come sometime next August. :)

We can't think of anyone better for Emma to take after and we agree she is so much like you. You are in for many good times with your two precious little daughters! I love mine so much!
