The Birthday Party (Double Digits!!!)

I got home around 9pm, and Morgan's birthday party started at 11:30am the next day. Nothing like no down time. :) We got up and of course had to go buy birthday presents for the other two girls who Morgan had the part with. Three girls on her team all have birthdays within a week of each other, so they had a combined party. They had an ice skating and laser tag party. They had a great time. Uncle Mark even ice skated. I was shocked and ultra-impressed. He did really well, and he didn't even fall. Not even once. :) I knew better than to put on ice skates. :) Mike, Mark, Chris, Michael, Travis, and Tal played Laser tag and had a blast. :)

Morgan ended up with a few girls spending the night, and we were planning to go on the boat on Sunday. That stupid storm Fay churned up the water and created pockets of storms, so we decided not to go. Instead the girls just played and had a great time.

We did a scavenger hunt in the neighborhoold (she did this last year too), and they had so much fun. I couldn't believe that both teams got a 1998 penny (the year Morgan was born). The neighbors were all seeming to enjoy the hunt. :) They have been saying that they want to go to You Do the Dishes, a ceramics painting place, but they have been having so much fun that they haven't been motivated to go.

I can't believe my baby is 10 years old. It seems so odd. What a thrill it is to have kids. With all the good, bad, and everything in the middle, I am so happy to have her. She is truly a blessing. I can't believe the girl who thought she couldn't have kids ended up with a wonderful daughter and three fantastic step-kids. Happy Birthday Mo Mo!!!!!!!!!!!!1
