Quincy's 8th Birthday (April)

In our family, on your 8th birthday you get your own set of new scriptures. Quincy knew this and was actually very excited for them. She made a request for "the small ones". All of the other kids have the standard size but we honored her wish and got her a small print set. Hopefully her eyes always stay good!!
She got some new summer clothes from Grandpa Tom and Grandma Barb. She also got some money and a nice card in the mail from Grandpa and Grandma Southwick and Grandpa and Grandma Wyatt.

Quincy had a friend party this year (this was our 3rd friend party in 2 months...so hopefully no more for years to come!). She invited 7 little girls and we had a giggling party going on. She had a butterfly themed party. They played butterfly relay games, wrapped each other up with toilet paper like a cocoon, made butterflies with watercolors and coffee filters, ate butterfly cupcakes and decorated little fabric bags. The only thing that didn't go so perfect at the party was the fact that they went outside and had a little fun on our tire swing. Our kids are used to it and it doesn't bother them so they forget that others might not be the same. One little girl puked on the way home in our suburban and we heard later that another little girl threw up when she got home. They both said they got sick on the swing!! Oops!

Happy Birthday Quincy...We love you lots!!
