Mikayla's 11th Birthday

Mikayla's 11th birthday was broken up into a bunch of mini parties, so to speak this year.  On March 29th a few days before her birthday, she had a party with some of her friends at a place called Hollywood Princess. They got to have their hair, make-up and nails done and have a "run-way" show.

Hollywood Princess did the decorations and table settings and provided strawberry lemonade.  We just brought whatever snacks we wanted and cupcakes.

Opening gifts

On April 1st, the day of Mikayla's birthday, John went and got doughnuts for them to have for breakfast and he picked up doughnuts for me to take to her class later in the day. For dinner we went to a Mexican restaurant here in town.

Fresh out of bed.  Opening her cards and eating her doughnut.  Excuse the bed head!  Mikayla does not do mornings well!  It's quite the job to get her out of bed in the mornings!

Ready to go to school.

Later in the day.  Having doughnuts with her class.  Her friend Jordan is photo bombing in the back ground.

On Sunday, April 6th we had some family over for a birthday dinner.

I made the cake.  Mikayla decorated it.

Happy 11th birthday Mikayla.  You continue to surprise us with all that you have accomplished and overcame.
