(Almost) Eight is Great!

Today we celebrated my youngest's birthday.


This morning she woke up and said,

"Today is my party, but technically I am still seven."

That's right my baby girl!  Technically you are still seven.

We are really hoping to be at 35,000 feet on her actual birthday!
 
We are praying that next Tuesday we know when our United States Consulate appointment will be and begin to make travel arrangements to China.



We did not want to miss a birthday party, so 

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!






We had relay races, long jump, hula hooping

Even a javelin throw

Who could blow the straw paper the furthest


 

We took a break for water and brownies and ice cream




 
The torch was passed to each child


Then they would bring their present 

And sit with the birthday girl while she opened it





Medals were awarded to each participant



 


Then we had the closing ceremonies!


 

Who can resist water balloons!
