Happy Birthday Linnea!

We started out Linnea's birthday with her favorite breakfast--chocolate chip pancakes (flower shaped for her) with cocoa (don't forget the whipped cream) Micah loved the candle!

On her birthday she was busy working on her quilt she is making.

We go out to eat for each person's birthday (Great-Grampa's treat). Linnea picked Chilies and ordered pizza.

After dinner, we came back home for cake (chocolate) and ice cream (mint chip) and presents.
Great grampa and Tera and Jared and their family celebrated with us that evening!

The following Saturday, Linnea's two ten year old cousins came from out of town to spend the night and have a birthday celebration with her.

For lunch, macaroni and cheese, cantalope, strawberries, apples, chicken nuggets and juice squeeze.

We drove to Capitola to Beach Bear Co. Micah LOVED all the animals at arms reach.

Gavin picked a blue dragon and here he is giving it it's bath.

Micah picked an elephant and we are watching it being stuffed.

It was such a fun place to have a birthday! Afterward, ice cream in this cute little beach town.

Back home for presents.

We love our big girl! Double digits!
