Lauren's 7th Birthday

Lauren turned seven on February 9th.  I can't believe she is seven already!  We celebrated her special day by having a few friends over for pizza and cupcake pops.  The girls (and Blake) enjoyed playing Wii, dressing up, putting on a show, and running through our house screaming! 













On Saturday we celebrated Lauren's birthday with the Wolter Family.  Lauren had requested an American Girl cake which I managed to make.  We found an idea on Pinterest for a cake that looks like a doll box with her picture on it.  It required the use of fondant which I had never worked with before.  It all turned out well though and the party was a success.  Lauren picked the menu, her favorites, meatballs, homeade mac and cheese, and green beans.

We are celebrating with the Bartlow side this weekend in Chicago.  We are having a "girls only" trip with Lauren's cousins and visiting the American Girl store.  Watch for more pics after the weekend!
