Addi is 8! I love this little girl so much! She has such a tender heart, she's a great helper, she loves to read, she does great at school, people love to be around her, she likes to organize things and she's very creative! I am so blessed to be her mom and can't imagine my life without her!
This year for her birthday, we had just been in our new home for only a few weeks and didn't really have any new friends yet to have a friend party. I felt bad about this, because turing 8 is an important birthday. She was a sweetheart and was fine just having a family party.
Part of her present was getting her new room ready. This is an old door that I painted blue for her headboard...
The after picture. I think it turned out cute and Addi loves it so I'm happy!
The bedding is from Target.
Then my parents came over (so excited they live less than 5 minutes away now!), we had pizza, opened presents and had cake and ice cream. It was a fun low-key birthday. Sometimes those are kind of nice.
Usually it takes me hours to make my kids' birthday cakes, but this year Addi wanted strawberry cake with chocolate frosting and a strawberry on top. Easiest cake ever! Thanks Addi!
