Turning 10!

We had the pleasure of being in Idaho for Letty's birthday.  She and her cousin got to celebrate together, double the fun.  Letty is growing up so fast.  She is a lovely, smart, beautiful, confident girl.  She is full of energy and is a great party, craft, and play planner.  She is full of creativity.  We love our Letty bug.  We are so blessed to have such a great big sister.

Aunt Lainey put together her birthday display (a Lake tradition)

We celebrated her birthday on the 4th so with it comes the wonderful traditions of that day.  We went to watch the parade complete.  What's more American than... a camel?

Sparkler fun

The delicious joint birthday ice cream cake.  Letty and Curly got to make maxi skirts with their moms funded by Grandma Lovells as a gift from her.  Curly has hers on.

Our Letty has been very excited about Harry Potter as of late so her birthday had that as a theme.  I wanted to give her a wand and thought all the kids might like them so Aunt Lainey, Uncle W and I had a couple of late nights being employees for Ollivander's Wand shop.  We were a great team.  T-man made tags to include the contents of the wand.  One by one we brought the girls into the "wand shop" so they could pick out the wand or rather have the wand choose the wizard.

Grandma Lingerfelt sent a Hogwarts cape.

Opening some gifts

Out little Letty put up with traveling home on her real birthday.  We enjoyed dinner at this little spot.
