Kamary's 10!

Kamary is our only Summer birthday. Everyone else celebrates their birthday from November through February (except for Mom & Dad, but we don't count). She has to endure the endless torture of watching everyone celebrate their birthdays month after month while she has to wait.

finally....the big day arrives!

Getting ready to open presents

She got "real" lip gloss, not the baby stuff!

Opening a card from Grandma & Grandpa Wheeler

They gave her some great science experiment kits. It's right up her alley!

Now she can be a true rockstar! She wanted the house decorated with streamers and flowers. We used silver balloons and streamers with pink and white carnations.

For her cake, she wanted a cheesecake with berries all around. In the middle are the initials G.B.K. which stands for her little club she's formed (members include: her, her cousin and a friend from school).

Her birthday dinner included salad, salmon and homemade macaroni and cheese.

Blowing out the candles.

Grandma & Grandpa Smith gave her $20 for her birthday. I took her to the mall. We had lunch together and went to Claires to get her ears pierced. With her birthday $ she bought a pretty matching necklace.

So here is Kamary, our tweenage daughter! :)

We sure love her and are happy she's part of our family.
