Laura's 7 year old Soccer Birthday Party

The first present of the day came in the mail from Aunt Sarah. After a quick "I love Aunt Sarah" dance it was immediately put to good use.

Also note Laura's hairstyle....apparently this is an appropriate hairstyle for a seven year old.


Big Bear even got all dressed up for the party and was there to greet everyone as they arrived.


Everyone got soccer tattoos for the party.

The kids made up their own games. This is them playing kickball with an beachball soccer ball. Note the use of Aunt Sarah's present as bases :-)

Hanging out in the treehouse.


Ah, the old relighting candles gag... she can't seem to get the candles to stay blown out.


Alexis, Laura, and Alec


This is what happens when I try to organize a game...chaos...they did better without me :-)


After the party Laura is modeling her Chinese dress that she got for her birthday. This was a present from Mommy and Daddy. It was her hearts desire. Her cheeks are still rosy from vigorously scrubbing off the tattoos, because they didn't go with the dress.
