Emily's 6th Birthday

When it was time to wake up Emily for school, the twins and I went in her room and sang Happy Birthday while she was still in bed. Emily got a huge kick out of that. Since it was a school day, it was then time to rise and shine, get dressed, breakfast, and then it was off to school. When we arrived at school, we took the twins to their class and then headed to the Primary School building. Emily was excited to take in the cupcakes that we made the night before and show them to Mrs. Ross.

Luckily, John was off work early so we were both able to pick Emily up in the car pool line. Emily was very excited to see us and also wound up from the birthday excitement and cupcakes. She told us all about having a great day on our way to McDonalds. When we arrived at McDonalds, we got her happy meal and headed out to the play ground to open gifts. She was very excited about her charm bracelet and DSi.

After we were done at McDonalds, we headed back to the school to get the twins before heading home to get ready for the play. Once we were ready, Emily and I headed to Red Robbin for dinner. Daddy joined us for dinner. Emily was so excited about the waiters coming to sign and bring ice cream. After we were done, Emily and I headed downtown to the Peace Center for the Childrens Theater production of "Dear Santa". Emily had a fabulous time at the play. She was so excited to see her friend Kathryn Brockman and was thrilled to see Ms. Tracye (her drama teacher) in the show. She would point out every time Tracye would come on stage. It was topped off by getting to see Tracye after the show in her costume and getting her to sign her program.

I think she had a fabulous birthday.

Lindsey's Bake Shop (Making 60 cupcakes for Pump it Up) 12-12-08

Friday eveningg, December 12th, I baked approximately 60 cupcakes to get ready for the girls birthday party at Pump it Up the next morning. I was crazy to see all the cupcakes spread out on the kitchen table. After they were baked and Ansley and Bailey had gone to bed, John and I iced all the cupcakes and then Emily worked on the sprinkles.
