I thought I better try and post before the day is over! Elizabeth celebrated her 8th birthday today. We had a little get together yesterday at the new park here is Spanish Fork that has some nice play equipment as well as a fun splash pad for the kids to play in. It was a beautiful fall afternoon, and still warm enough to play in the water for the kids. Today was a little low key. Elizabeth opened a couple presents this morning, we went to church, played with her sisters and our dog ( yes, we got a dog. .. post to come about that one. . . . .) and we had cake and sang to her tonight. 
We love having Elizabeth in our home. She is full of life and is eager to help and please. She is a hard worker and a great sister and daughter. I was helping her fill out a paper tonight for school that is called "My Me Book". I thought I would share a few things she said. . . .so you can get to know her a bit better!
- I am happiest when I am at church
- I am proud of myself because I am helpful
- I am good at soccer
- When I grow up I want to be a Shaved Ice Worker
Here are her TOP TEN FAVORITES:
- Sport: Soccer
- Hobby: Art
- Game: Battleship
- Book: Frog and Toad
- Holiday: Halloween
- Movie: Night at the Museum
- Color: Green
- Food: Lasagna
- School Subject: Music
- Ice Cream Flavor: Bubble Gum
Now you now everything you need to know about our wonderful Elizabeth!! I have to crack up when she said she wanted to be a shaved ice worker when she grows up. . . .nothing like shooting for the starts, right?! The other day we were driving in the car and Mia and Elizabeth were talking. . . .and Elizabeth said she wanted to either work at The Pizza Factory or Shaved Ice when she grows up and Mia said she wants to work at Shaved ice. . . . then they decided they can work together!! Sounds like quite the plan, huh??

Happy 8th Birthday, Elizabeth! We have a little gift for your baptism, but I wasn't organized enough to get it mailed with your birthday card. It will be coming to you soon! :)
happy birthday Elizabth! Wow, 8 years old! Can't wait to see you at Christmas time.
Wow they grow up so fast don't they! Happy Birthday Elizabeth! I always like having birthday's on Sundays because they are low key and more about hanging out as a family.
Maybe you should get her a Snoopy Snow Cone Machine (do you remember those?) for her birthday so she can get some hands on experience for her up coming career! :)
We love you Elizabeth. I hope you had a happy day. You have such a great smile and are so photogenic. I like your idea of working a shaved ice. Maybe you will give me a free one when I come to visit.
Happy birthday to Elizabeth. She's a very fun girl & I'm sure any shaved ice place would be happy to have her sunny smile at their counter.
I think that working at the shaved ice sounds great! In fact right about now I am ready to go work at a shaved ice stand, my job is going to get stressful fast (starting a whole new way we will be getting reimbursed from medicare/medicaid and believe me the government knows how to make things complicated!) so I think all 3 of us can work together ;)
