Savannah had a special birthday this year because she turned 8! She was very excited for her birthday. She started the day with breakfast in bed-- well on her bedroom floor. She has been sleeping in Heather's room so she decided she would sleep with Heather and then have breakfast in her own room. She opened gifts from us. I'd like to say her favorite gift was her scriptures but I actually think it was the pillow pet. I'm sure she'll come to appreciate the value of the scriptures as she studies them and applies them to her life, and after the stuffing falls out of the pillow pet and we take it to the DI!
Savannah had a party later that day with her friends. It was a costume party which will probably generally be the case because her birthday is so close to Halloween. She and her friends played quite a few games, did some crafts, and had cake and ice cream. It was a fun party with a lot of screaming girls. It sure is nice having Heather and Lindsey around to help with the parties. We love Savannah and we're grateful to have her in our family.
