Happy Birthday, Abby!

Today Abby turned nine. I can hardly believe that she is that old. Time has been going way too fast lately! Abby is such a blessing in our family. She is so sweet, and willingly shares what she has with others. She is a sensitive little girl, and always tries to help others. She's also a very "girly-girl"--she likes her jewelry and make-up. When I do laundry I am always finding her little lip glosses tucked into her pants pockets. We are so happy to have Abby in our family and hope that she has a great year as a nine-year-old! We love you Abby!

A password journal from Uncle Randy, Aunt Rachel, Brandon, Justin, and Tyler. Think she's excited about it?

Abby ready to dive into her gifts (notice her outfit--a large t-shirt; every Sunday after church the girls either have on pj's or dress-up clothes)

A new CD player/radio/alarm clock...no more buzzer to wake up to!

In the background are the chair and lamp from Grandma and Papa for Abby's desk.

Abby's birthday dinner of tacos... her favorite!

Since her birthday was on Sunday, we took her out for dinner last night. Her choice? Taco Bell.

Abby with her "volcano" cake. It cracked apart in the middle for some reason, but still tasted yummy! (Hey, I'm no Martha Stewart, but I try!)

I can't believe she is 9! Time flies. I remember the day she was born and going to see you in the hospital when you were in labor. She was the cutest little baby and sure is turning into a beautiful young lady! She shares a birthday with my grandmother - thank you for reminding me of that!!!
