Christmas weekend and Anna's birthday

We had non-stop fun with our cousins that week after Christmas...and ANNA'S SEVENTH BIRTHDAY was the 27th...she had a pretty fun day I'd say. She got to celebrate with cousins and we even hit a pinata around. I can't believe my girl is 7 and one year away from baptism. She is so fun to be with, loves to joke around, is kind to others, obedient, self-motivated, musical, sweet, motherly, aware of others and of course beautiful. We love her and are so grateful to have her in our family....she is a huge blessing to Jay & I. Here are some pictures from her big day, turning seven is so cool.
