While we were in California we celebrated Lynnae's 8th birthday. Actually, Disneyland was something that we did for her birthday as well. She got a lot of presents... we're hoping not too many, because we don't want to set an unhealthy standard! Lynnae got to go shopping with my mom a couple of days before her birthday, and really enjoyed getting to pick out some of her presents and spend time with her new grandma. In fact, I am pretty sure that most of her favorite presents came from her grandparents... two stuffed animals from my mom have taken up the new place in her bed to sleep (Brownie and Caramel - both girls of course, and have you noticed the food name theme with all of her stuffed animals?) She also got a dress that she loves from Grnadma, and a Leapster from Grandpa Kovar. We gave her a big doll house that she has seemed to enjoy playing with, but I think the other stuffed animals are more important to her.
The morning of her birthday we went to church in my parent's ward. It was fun for me because there were several people there that usually aren't... and that I haven't seen in 10 years. She had fun because they sang to her both for her birthday and for being a visitor. Then we came home, had lunch, and later had a birthday dinner for Lynnae. She opened her presents and then we had cake and ice cream. All in all, I am pretty sure it was a good birthday for her.
