Happy Birthday to my 6 year old!!!!! Raegan really is a terrific girl. We LOVE her!!!
This year we decided to have a family birthday. Raegan wasn't too keen on the idea until we gave her the option to go to Build-A-Bear. We haven't ever taken the girls there before so they were SO excited!! I'm not going to lie, I was excited too.
The night before her big day, after she was asleep, Kurt and I crept in and decorated her room with balloons, streamers and hearts. I could hardly wait for her to wake up. She ended up waking up in the middle of the night with a bad dream, so the surprise wasn't quite as fun as I had hoped for, but she still talked about her decorated room all day long.
After she came home from school we headed to Build-A-Bear and let the girls go crazy (within a budget of course). They loved every minute of picking out their bears and dressing them. We then drove to Bountiful to have cake and open presents. Every present was a huge hit: a scooter (hers got ran over last summer.....whoops), her very own digital camera (thanks to Tyler and Beth that got a new one for Christmas and so kindly gave us their old one, but to her it's brand new!), 2 homemade jackets from Grandma Vivian, and 3 Zhu Zhu pets! Zhu Zhu pets were the birthday craze. She had asked for them, and got one from each: Mallory, my mom, and one of her crushes, Tavon!!! I don't know if she was more excited about the Zhu Zhu pet or the fact that it came from Tavon. How stinkin' cute is that! She had a great birthday.
