Eight is Great!!

Last week Audrey had her 8th birthday!!!  It is still so hard to believe she is eight!  Dave and I feel she is growing up way too fast.  She had almost a full week of celebrating.  We went to a Character's breakfast at Disneyland.  She got to eat pastries, mickey waffles and cupcakes for breakfast while the characters came by the table to wish her a Happy Birthday.  Then she got to go to Disneyland with Cara and I and pick all the rides herself!  On the big day she enjoyed cake, presents phone calls and more fun.  Then to top everything off the next night she had a surprise visit from her good friends from Calgary, Elise and Marissa Ruggles!  They had so much fun playing together again!!  It was so neat to see them enjoying themselves.  We were excited to have a visit with Jeff and Rachel as well.  It was a great way to end a wonderful celebration!!  We still have her baptism to look forward to in April!  

It's going to be a great year for a wonderful girl
We LOVE you Audrey!!

Thanks so much to everyone who helped Audrey have such a special birthday!  She received cards, phone calls and gifts from so many people.  We really appreciate all of your love and support!!  Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy!
