Jill is Nine!

Jill celebrated her last birthday in the single-digits!  It was also her first birthday in the new house, so there was a lot to be excited about.  She had a "painting party" which I initially envisioned doing outside on the back patio.  But the weather had other plans for us (see below).

So, thanks to the springtime snowstorm, we had to move the painting inside (gulp).  Thankfully, our dining room table had just been delivered a few days before, so we actually had a place for everyone to sit!

The setup.

Let the artistry begin!

Jill chose a scene with a wolf howling at the moon.

What a creative crew.

The finished product.

Ready to open some presents.

Things got a little rowdy while we waited for the pizza to arrive.

Food and cookie cake was enough to calm things down again.

I think the birthday girl had a good time.

On her actual birthday, Jill got to have a couple of good buddies spend the night.  And she woke up to doughnuts and presents.

Wait, I'm nine now???

More fun surprises to unwrap!

Our growing girl has been honing her baking skills lately.  So she insisted on helping to bake and frost her own cake.

Happy birthday, sweet Jilly girl!
