Lauren Has a Birthday Party

Lauren turned seven on February 15, 2008. In case you did not know it was a national holiday, just ask her she will tell you. It was a big day for her and for her mother. Lauren had to do a family presentation at school which involved bringing the entire family to school, introducing us, telling her class about our occupations, telling about a family vacation, with pictures of course, reading Lauren's favorite story, and of course passing out treats.

After school was over Lauren had a birthday party with her friends and her cousin Addy. The girls decorated bags with foam stickers, played "uno attack," opened presents, ate cake and had a treasure hunt. A good time was had by all! Lauren gets to have a party with friends every other year. The last party she had was when she turned five and I have to tell you a birthday party for seven year olds is soooo much better than a birthday party for five year olds. Their attention span is a lot longer and they play together better.
