On December 3rd, Emma turned 9 years old! I can't believe how fast the time has gone by. She is such a good kid and we are lucky to have her in our family!!! We started out our day of celebrating by riding the "Santa Train" in Elgin. It wasn't the most interactive train ride out there but we had a great time being together as a family and enjoying Emma's special day. Plus the girls got to see Santa Claus and come home with a yummy candy cane.
We capped the evening off with an "Almost Slumber Party" at our house with a few of Emma's friends. They laughed and danced, painted nails and played games, and had lots of pizza and birthday cake. We did all the things that would happen at a normal slumber party but instead of staying over night the girls went home before bed time. Overall everyone had a great time but boy was I absolutely EXHAUSTED by the time the girls left.
Hope you had a great day Emma! We love you very much!

How fun! What a great idea on the almost-sleepover. My sister taught me that concept- she calls it a "late-over." An absolutely fabulous idea!
