Happy Birthday Kadee!

Yesterday our beautiful Kadence celebrated her 10th birthday!  I can't believe it!  Since her birthday was in the middle of the school week we had her party last Friday at Apple Country Crafts.  It was the easiest party I've ever done and the girls had so much fun.  Each of the girls got a wood cut out of their first initial.  They got to paint it, modge podge their choice of paper on it, tie ribbon around it, and put a wire at the top to make it a photo holder.  We also had cake and drinks and the girls were of course silly and laughed a lot.

Yesterday, for Kadee's actual birthday, I took cupcakes to her class at school, we had parent teacher conferences (all the kids are doing fabulous and are right where they need to be, the only negative I heard was that Connor likes to talk a lot, just like his dad), then we went to dinner at Arby's (Kadee's choice).  After dinner grandma Debbie took her to Coldstone for ice cream and when she got home Rory surprised her with a rose and a stuffed panda.  She decided to go to Activity days at the church and they made sugar cookies and sang Happy Birthday to her.  She said she had a great day but it went by way too fast.

Kadence is such a sweet girl!  She loves gymnastics, dance, musical majors, and anything that keeps her busy.  Her favorite book series right now is Dork Diaries and her favorite colors are blue and green.  She loves school (especially art) and is the best student.  All of her teachers rave about her perfect behavior and how hard she works.  She also has Perfect Attendance so far this school year and is trying to not miss a day of school all year.  She is a very loyal friend and loves to be silly with her friends.  She is such an awesome addition to our family and I'm so excited for her to be 10 and to see what's in store for her.
