Morgan's 8th Birthday

:)

My little Morgan is now EIGHT years old! Holy cow...I can't believe it. It seems like only yesterday I was dropping her off at her first day of preschool. Now she's eight, getting baptized, and leaving the 2nd grade. It's unbelievable...I love her so much, and it's crazy how fast she's growing up.



Morgan's very favorite TV show is definitely Wizards of Waverly Place. She LOVES it, and she is a huge Alex (Selena Gomez) fan. So, we got her a Wizards birthday cake. It was so cute, Morgan was so happy and surprised. It said "Happy Birthday Morgan" on it, and a picture of Alex. We all loved it, especially Morgan.

In our family, once you turn eight, you can get your ears pierced. So, we went to the mall on her birthday, and she watched a little girl go before her and she got really scared and nervous. She cried a little bit and held her dad's hand, she picked out what earrings she wanted, and she did it! We were all so proud of her, and her ears look so cute.


>Her birthday was on a Friday, so she would be baptized the day after her birthday. About a week before, I was able to spend some time with Morgan and go dress shopping. We picked out a beautiful baptism and she was so excited about it. Her baptism was a beautiful experience. We were really grateful that Brian's brother Jim came. It meant a lot to Morgan.


After her baptism all the girls invited friends to go eat lunch and play at Pirate Island. We all had so much fun. Morgan brought her best friend Makel, Kiah brought Brooklyn, BreElle brought Brooke, and Sheridyn hung out with me and Bri (her friend had a dance recital.) It was a lot of fun and something we'll never forget! Happy Birthday, Morgs.
