Happy happy birthday Cora dear! Cora has been so excited for her birthday! She couldn't wait to open her presents-- Kevin joined us over speaker phone since he was out of town.
Here's Cora opening her big present-- a tablet!
She also received an umbrella, sketch book, gymnastics outfit, and a board game. She might have been most excited for her coupon present though-- an hour of sewing time with mom, a homemade Anna cape (Frozen), and three apps. She took her money from G.G. and loved shopping at the Quilted Bear for another special birthday treat! And Grandma and Grandpa gave her a bicycle basket that her siblings are coveting! Lucky girl!
Cora chose her favorite foods for her birthday meals: breakfast burritos, watermelon, chocolate milk; Happy Meals at a park with a friend; Hawaiian pizza, snap peas, raspberries, lemonade, and sugar cookies.
One her birthday she got to go visiting teaching with me (at her friends' house!), go to the park, and pick out a toy at the Quilted Bear (a soft stuffed owl and a BYU cheerleader bear because she missed Kevin). Her big treat though, was a date with me to the rodeo! The other kids stayed at home with a sitter and we met Keyton and his family at the Lehi rodeo. It was a bit drizzly, but a lot of fun. I was glad we had blankets... but we could have used warmer clothes. Funny June weather!
I'm so happy I got such a beautiful picture of cute rodeo princess Cora!
Friday was an extra day of birthday celebrating! We met up with cousins at Jump Around Utah. Then it was party time at our house with everyone from my side of the family. It was pretty low-key, but the kids ran around and had a lot of fun. Cora chose more of her favorite foods for dinner-- fried chicken, cucumbers, creamy fruit salad, Doritos, rootbeer, and macaroni and cheese. I experimenting with an icecream cake and it was a major success! We will definitely be having it again!
Evelyn is always eager to help with unwrapping presents!
Happy happy birthday sweet Cora!
