She is 8 years old and I cannot believe it. Wow. Where did the time go? Here are some fun shots from her big day:
Morgan and Rachael with Morgan's breakfast in bed. Morgan requested a ham and cheese
omelet, toast,
applesauce and orange juice. Rachael was quite the helper. She made the orange juice, rolled the silverware in a napkin, made Morgan a beautiful card, and carried the tray in to the birthday girl. Breakfast in bed on your birthday is a fun tradition that we adopted from some friends. The girls LOVE it, and look forward to it both as the server and the receiver.
In our house, I make your favorite dinner for your birthday. Morgan's favorite is fondue, so that is what we ate. We had a large bottle of fuel for our fondue pot that lasted 3-4 years. We only eat fondue on special occasions, so the fuel was just always there. Because of this, I never thought to look to make sure that we had some for the birthday dinner. It ran out last time we made fondue. (Oops). Of course I did not realize this until the table was set and we were getting ready to put the cheese fondue together. New discovery: an electric skillet works great! We just plugged it in and kept it on the 'warm/simmer' setting.
What could be better than cheese fondue? Chocolate fondue! Yum! Thanks to the
Blackhams for the delicious recipes.

It's really hard to believe she's this old. What happened to that bald little baby we knew and loved?
Wow, eight! That's an important age. But with the parents she has, I'm sure she was more than ready for baptism. What a big girl! How can you stand how fast she is growing up???
Hope all is going well in determining your destination for the next few years. We look forward to reading how things are going.
