Happy 8th Birthday Kayla!

Exciting times at the Nelson household!  This is Kayla on Saturday . . . picking out which earrings she wanted for her pierced ears!!!!  She had been saying all year that for her birthday she wanted her ears pierced -- and she never changed her mind!


Here's the before . . .

 . . . and here's the after!  She was a trooper!  The place we went to did both ears at the same time -- which was GREAT!  It also helped that the girl right before her did AWESOME, 
so Kayla just followed suit!


We had a little "Frozen-themed" party at the house for a few school friends.  The crafty part of the part was decorating mugs with markers -- and I TOTALLY forgot to get any pictures -- ARGH!


 Mama's best attempt at a "Frozen" palace!


Trying to stack Kristoff's ice blocks:)

Adding marshmallows into the mug . . . without using hands!

We were minus a friend . . . she was at home with a 101 degree fever and pneumonia:(  
It was a fun group of girls!


Yep - there are 8 candles!

"Do you wanna build a snowman?"  Why sure!

This morning we had Kayla open some gifts before school since we knew the afternoon and evening would be full.  It's always a treat getting a package in the mail from Wisconsin!

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Nelson!  We're trying something new this year -- since Joshua's birthday is in 3 weeks, we're going to have a combined KS family party next week for both J and K -- it will result in an extended birthday celebration for both of them!
