In the evening, I made her dinner request of cream of broccoli soup in bread bowls, which she surprised me and ate. Then we opened her presents. I bought her presents well ahead of time and Anya had already told Rachel what they were. I think Rachel was still happy. For dessert we had pie, which Rachel did not eat and I was not surprised.
On their birthdays, I let the kids stay up and hang out with me a while. Rachel requested painting. We ended her day with some painting. Rachel painted a picture of Merida
Rachel's birthday was over, but the celebration was not. Two days later on Friday, Rachel had a birthday party with her friends from school. She had a ton of fun, and since I kept the party to one hour, I survived a house full of 6 and 7 year olds.We made crowns, decorated cupcakes, played pin the crown on the bear, and went on a bear hunt. Success!
