the rest...

Emily had a WONDERFUL Seventh Birthday. She wore another birthday crown all day at school - missed her name being read during morning announcements because she was at computer class...oh well, got serenaded by her whole class, received a free ice cream from the principal, got lots and lots of very nice gifts, some pretty cool flowers, and her favorite chocolate-chocolate cake. She also had a very nice dinner at Red Robin with us, Grandma, Aunt Teresa and Uncle Denny. A FULL day. Also a school night - which meant that Emily had to go to bed without really getting to play with her presents. Poor girl. Well, she has a whole two weeks off of school starting Friday afternoon...so I don't feel too bad for her. She's going to need that amount of time just to put together 1/2 of the Lego set that she got from the Marcikic clan!!
