Taylor's Tenth Birthday-January 19, 2009

Taylor turned 10 years old today! (January 19th) I can't believe how much she has grown since I first met Eric. She was only 7 when I first met her! We had a party for her on her actual birthday. We got together with Eric's Mom, Carol. Gramma Carol bought a cake and ice-cream and then took us all out to dinner to celebrate Taylor's birthday.

We held Taylor's birthday party on Saturday, January 24th at Chuck E Cheese. Taylor's mother's family were able to attend, which made us very happy. Her grandpa Dennis and grandma Arlene (maternal) as well as her auntie Kandee and auntie Alesha also attended. Alesha brought her friend Amber and Kandee's husband, Aaron, (Taylor's uncle) also came. Of course Aunt Kendra, Uncle Matt and cousin Paisley also came.

Aww...Taylor, Jarekah and Daddy

Aww...Madison, Jarekah and Daddy

I think Taylor had a good birthday. She got a lot of presents! I think Taylor's favorite present is her new turtle Destiny Bob. We are not positive on the gender of her new turtle, so Taylor named it Destiny Bob.

Taylor also got a gift card to Bullwinkles from her relatives on her mom's side. Aunt Kendra and Uncle Matt got her an electronic High School Musical diary. Gramma Carol got her a lot of new clothes, art supplies, fashion art set and new shoes. My parents got her clothes, Lite Brite and Hannah Montana jewlery.
