HaPPy BirTHDaY MeKENNa JO

Mekenna's birthday was on March 5th, she turned 8 years old. However, we weren't able to celebrate it in our house until March 13th. Our Vegas trip was the weekend before her special day and her birthday party at her mom's house was the weekend after, therefore, leaving our celebration to fall on the 13th. She had to wait to open her presents until I got home from work and when I did finally get home she was bouncing off the walls to open them. She received a couple summer outfits, a pair of jeans, money, and a bunch of Pixo items. She loves doing Pixo designs and is quite good at them. For her cake I had found a recipe that consisted of making cup cakes in ice cream cones instead of paper cups. Then of course you frost them. It was the first time I tried them and they were a hit, definitely something I would make again.

Shawn recording the event, we love using the camcorder when we get a chance. I will have to start posting some videos more often.
