Cami--Happy Birthday!

Hard to believe this girl turned 9! I don't know why--but my kids just keep getting bigger! Cami had a three-part birthday--Friday was her birthday but it is hard to keep Friday night clear with the older kids. So she got to go with Russ and I to watch Cassie cheer at a basketball game all by herself. She really loved it and it was fun to have some time with just her. Afterwards at 9:30 we arranged for everyone to be home for just a little while to open presents and have cake. Cami was a trooper and was super excited to receive the motor scooter--now to just get her to slow down a little!!
Nine things you might not know about Cami
1. She loves to do everything fast!
2. She is a great big and little sister to everyone!
3. She has an infectious smile that makes everyone around her smile too.
4. She has no fear (except one....see #5)
5. She doesn't really like the "Tower of Terror" at Disneyland but goes on it each year because the rest of us love that ride! (yes...she has a choice she can either ride the ride or sit by herself while the rest of us ride.)
6. She is kind, loving and worries a lot about others feelings.
7. She tries to keep up with her brothers and the tricks they do.
8. She is a ball of energy.
9. I am so lucky to be her mom and we LOVE CAMI!

Cami and Cassie

The second part of her birthday consists of dinner at Grampy and Grammy's on Sunday. She gets to pick whatever she wants--this year Bar-B-Que chicken. Then we open presents and always take pictures of all the cousins. (Notice Chantz pulling Chelsey over unexpectedly--pretty original for a pose!)

Third--Monday was a holiday so Cami invited her best friend Ashlyn and we went ice-skating with the Goodmans. It is always fun to watch the kids!

Having lots of fun!

Chloe has gotten so good at skating even if it is super crowded!

We are so thankful to big brothers to pull us when we are tired...or maybe they were practicing their ice-skating routine!

The whole gang! We hope you had a Happy Birthday and know that We Love You Cami!
