Last night after Jennifer went to bed we wrapped her presents and set out balloons so that when she got up this morning her birthday would truly be underway. She could not contain her excitement when she saw all her "stuff". We let her open one present this morning.
Some new hair stuff, she was asking Bill for these on the way to school the other day so she was very excited to get some of her very own.
Fingernail polish, purple of course. After school we tried to paint her nails, which she was very excited about, we got her fingernails but only one set of toenails. Too much excitement to finish the other I guess.
A new Bible! Love that she was so very excited about this.
A birthday isn't complete without balloons.
After opening her present it was time for a special birthday breakfast, donuts!
Mikayla helped me make Jennifer's birthday cupcakes today. She was loving it! Usually Jennifer dominates the cooking time so Mikayla thought it was great to do everything. She really did get into it, maybe a little too much but I loved it too.
Jennifer has been loving "longer dresses" lately. So she got two new "longer dresses", she was very excited about them. Why they are called longer dresses you ask? I have no idea but all dresses are called longer dresses.
A new kite, kite rider shall ride again!
Another "longer dress".
A new baseball glove and ball. This was what dad wanted to get her so they could play catch in the yard. Although she didn't really know what it was at first she was very excited about it!
Trying out the new ball and glove. Getting a few instructions from dad.
Check out the stance or maybe you were caught up in the outfit. Cowgirl boots go with anything right? And not only do they go with anything, they can be worn for anything, including playing a little catch in the backyard.
Jennifer loves to sing "Happy Birthday", I'm fairly certain she sang it to herself about ten times today. So she really loved it when it is time for cupcakes so we can sing to her.
Gotta love that smile!
We went out for supper with some friends to celebrate Jennifer's birthday, which she was very excited about. We had a few unexpected friends join us as well, it was a great evening! They brought out a hat and sang to Jennifer, as you can see by her smile she loved it!
Mikayla really wanted to try the hat on as well, soon it will be her turn for the "Happy Birthday" song!
Happy 7th Birthday Jennifer! Thanks for all the smiles today.

Looks like a wonderfully special, happy birthday.
Looks like Jen had a fantastic birthday celebration!!! We thought of her yesterday and I told the boys that it was Jennifer's birthday so they sang Happy Birthday to her... and then kinda realized that she wasn't here, but they enjoyed it anyway! Give Jen a birthday hug and kiss! Love all the pictures! (By the way, I cannot believe how big Mikayla looks with the mixer in her hand!!!)
