HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAIGE!!

Paige is 11 today!!!!! Boy how time flies!!! I remember when Paige was born. We didn't know if we were having a boy or a girl....when the doctor said, "GIRL" - Rick and I were so excited!!!! We love our girls! We were talking today, thinking about Paige, and we realized what a great kid she has been. I honestly can't think of a single time when she has been SUPER NAUGHTY! (knock on wood) She has been such a joy to have in our family. I would describe her as the second mom of the family! She is the one that always makes sure everyone has what they need, everyone has a lunch, homework done, teeth brushed, and hair combed. I can always count on Paige to get things done if I am not home.
Tonight we took Paige to dinner at the Olive Garden. She has been begging to eat there for quite some time....One of her cute little friends, Kalee came with us along with Grandma...we had a great time!!! Here we are with the birthday girl! She already looks so grown up!Thanks for coming with us Grandma! We had fun laughing with you!! :)Paige opened her presents and thought she won the jackpot with Kalee's present! THANKS KALEE!!! I'm sure Paige will find something she will love!Paige also got some cute new clothes. BUT.....
She was super excited to open the bright yellow coat from Grandma!Paige has had her eye on this coat for a little while now. She loves yellow and immediately loved this coat....I must say, it does look pretty cute on her.
Paige was excited, but also a little embarrassed when the Olive Garden staff came in with a cake for her....they all sang (along with us of course!) After the song she took a nice big breath and was ready to blow out the candles.....BUT, they were MAGIC candles!!!!They kept coming back and coming back!!!! All the kids had to help her blow them out.......but they kept coming back and coming back....Finally, they pulled the candles out and put them in a glass of water! Paige was lucky though - she got to make lots of wishes!! It was so cute...when we were serving the cake, Paige assured us there was no spit on the cake from all the blowing. (I'm not sure I believed her :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETIE! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!
