Today Amara turned eight years old. Last night she had a slumber party here at our house with 6 of her best girl friends. Mommy and Daddy spent the night, too and so did one of the other Moms. It was a wonderful party and I will be back to tell you all about it but first I must share this!
Grampy and I are big on watching the morning news and we always tease Amara that she wants to have coffee and watch the news with us! And each year I say I am going to send her picture in for the birthday announcements and this year thanks to some gentle prodding by Grampy I actually got it done!

That’s our girl!!!!! Much fun and pizza and cake and ice cream was had by all. With some Wallace and Grommitt on the side.
I’m showing my ignorance here, Grampy. What is Wallace and Grommitt???
Hi Baby Sister,
In case Grampy doesn’t see this and reply, Wallace and Gromit are Claymation characters. Very G rated and very cute! Wallace is kind of a clumsy inventor and Gromit is his dog. They are just fun to watch for any age.
Wish you and Uncle Mark could have been here. Love you both.
Wow. You are a brave and wonderful grandma to take on the party. Enjoy being 8, Amara!.
Yes, Grama – you are very brave to take on a slumber party of 8 year old girls!! You are awesome!!
Happy #8 Amara!!
xoxo
I’m thinking that the reason that you’re not telling us more about the party now is that you’re headed off to take a nice long nap! At least that’s what I would be doing. Congratulations to Amara and to her cool grandmother!
Aw! I bet she was fit to be tied! Happy (belated!) birthday, Amara!
Happy belated birthday, Amara. Have a great year.
