Today is Lauren's 7th Birthday. It has been a fun couple of days as we celebrated with her. Last Saturday there was a family party. That party was suppose to have been in between 2 soccer games. No one got to see Benjamin & Lauren play soccer due to rain but it was a lot less stressful that way!
On Friday, she had a birthday party with 5 of her friends. She chose a butterfly party and we had lots of different activities that focused on the different stages of a butterfly's life. They painted butterfly wings, had a relay race carrying a butterfly egg (ping pong ball) on a spoon, wrapped each other up in toilet paper cocoons and then "broke" out of them and a butterfly scavenger hunt. The highlights were the pinata and the release of the 4 real butterflies that we had watched grow from caterpillars into butterflies.
There were also small celebrations at school and the soccer game today. She chose to eat her birthday dinner at Subway tonight followed by a trip to the movie store for a DVD to watch. A great celebration.
Happy Birthday 7th Birthday Lauren!
