Malia's 9th Birthday

We celebrated Malia's 9th birthday with a Barbie Princess party complete with Barbie Cupcakes, an ice cream sundae bar and a pinata. What more could a girl ask for - friends, family, sunshine, sugar, & Barbie... a perfect day! Malia was completely spoiled with amazing gifts of a Nintendo DS, an American Girl doll and book set, Webkins, clothes, gift certificates, art supplies... and much much more. She is one loved girl!

It was a full house

Uncle Keith got a little carried away with the whipping cream. Mark thought we should offer a prize to the person who comes up with the best comment for this picture.

The pinata line up. Braeden got the first whack... Chris got the whack that brought the whole thing down.

Marty found other uses for the smashed pieces of pinata. I think I'll forward this one to the school board!

Grandpa Bob and Grandma Nicki - my wonderful parents!

Braeden always loves a party
