Birthday Girl Anja

We still can't believe our sweet little Anja girl is 8!
We started the day off with a Village Inn breakfast and then
she and I went b-day shopping at Target.

This is pretty much the smile we saw all day.

She really enjoyed her presents!

To end the day we made a homemade version of Outback's Spotted Dog dessert - her favorite! Vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce and crushed Oreos. Yum!


Gracie then found this Kung Fu Panda candle from another b-day and was insistent that everyone put it on their dessert and have their picture taken. She was also insistent that she check the photo, after each were taken,
to insure quality.

So I guess everyone

got to make a wish

on Anja's b-day!

(proof that even my wish came true)
