Sunshine

Sunshine's 7th birthday was a special day~ Any day that starts off by having ice cream topped with m&ms is going to be special. I know its not the healthiest of breakfast, but on birthdays we tend to break the rules. She also had a big bright homemade banner hanging in the kitchen along with a beautiful bouquet of flowers her brother put together from plants in the yard. It even had a card made especially by him hanging from the vase. That morning at our weekly HS play group, Sunshines friends were there to greet her with birthday drawings. She now has hanging in her room~ That evening grandma came over to celebrate with daddys grilled burgers, Sunshines favorite strawberry cake our dog Gracie Lue ended up enjoying, homemade party hats grandma called cone heads, fire works, laughter and love~

Ice cream for breakfast? What a great idea! I am going to have to do that for my Princess' 3rd birthday this December.
