On June 7th Sophie Lynn turned 6 years old! We have been counting down to this momentous occasion since January when the new year began. She has made countless calendars to keep track of just how soon it would be her special day. That was a lot of pressure on her parents to make it a memorable day for her.
She woke up in the morning to the most amazing display of love from her father. Logan is in charge of decorating the house and each time I think there's no way he will be able to out do the previous birthday. Well he not only surprised me again, but he blew us all away!!
(Sophie's nickname is Lew )
She was so excited to open her presents. I kept trying to get her to slow down but she just wanted to tear into them as quickly as possible.
After school we had her friends over for a girly party!
We started by having the girls decorate a picture of a crown.
Then they were blindfolded and tried to pin the crown on Rapunzel.
Next up was the piñata!
Hooray for candy!
Then we had a pizza and opened presents!

Sophie was really excited to have everyone sing and eat the cake. |
But I think the highlight of the party was getting their faces painted! Sophie loves a good mess!
It was a successful day!
Sophie is such a special girl and it was a joy to try and make her dreams come true. For weeks before the big day Sophie asked me multiple times a day if I was excited for her birthday. Sophie is such a funny girl. She is always making us laugh with her funny phrases or silly faces. Sophie is also very smart. She is an incredible reader and she loves to read. There have been many times when I have found her on her bed reading a book even without being asked.
Sophie loves to play with her friends and she is so lucky to have so many great friends so close. She spends the majority of her free time at either the Bott's house or the Boren's house and they always welcome her with open arms. She also loves to ride her bike, jump on the tramp, make up dances, or play in the sandbox. She is pretty easy going as long as what she is doing is FUN!
Sophie is a good sister. She is more generous than her siblings and for the most part tries to be the peacemaker. She loves to play with Myla, even though she is a bit too bossy sometimes and tends to make her sister scream. She is looking forward to the new baby though, and I know she will be a big helper!
Happy Birthday Lew! We love you!
