Last Thursday Makayla turned 8 years old and the celebration continued into the weekend.
On Thursday Dwight and I brought McDonald's (her lunch of choice) to Makayla at school for lunch. For dinner she chose to go to Applebees where she ordered appetizers for our meal. When we got home we enjoyed cupcakes from "Cupcake" ... a store at Mall of America which was opened by one of the winner's of Cupcake Wars.
On Saturday we headed to the Mall to Build A Bear. Makayla made two bears, one for her birthday present and then she made Allie one to give to her on the day she is born. Allie has a special present for Makayla too ... but it's a surprise.
After Build A Bear, we went to the movies to see Parental Guidance. Many of my friends who have seen the movie, has taken their kids to see it. It was a great family flick and we all really enjoyed it as a family.
I can't believe it's been 8 years since Makayla entered our life! She has brought much happiness, laughter, creativity and Bigfoot in our lives! We love her so much and can't wait to watch her grown up to be a big sister!
