Embree Turns Nine

 I made her a strawberry cheesecake-from a box!

She was thrilled with it!

She got EOS's, the book Socks and some American Girl Doll clothes.  I love  how happy she is in these pictures.  It was just our little family this year on her actual birthday she had a big friend party the Friday before.  They had a great time--her favorite part: putting each others lipstick on blindfolded!  I was so crazy busy I didn't take a single picture!!!!  

We are Super Bowl Champs again!!!

All the boys were SO mad and silent most of the second half.  When Butler intercepted the ball in Seattle's en-zone 8 grown men FLEW up off the couch SCREAMING and YELLING!  It was smiles, hoots and hollers for the next 20 minutes!!!  Yea!
