Good morning to this sweet EIGHT year old!! She is so very excited for the day!
First up, opening gifts!
I love Julia's face here...she knows Natalie is opening up a Barbie with a pooping dog...
And the bow and arrow set she REALLY wanted.
Time to eat a little something...chocolate waffles with homemade whipped cream!
Natalie had her birthday at the Humane Society. We did a dog and cat theme and it turned out adorable! She asked her friends to bring her a book if they wanted to bring a gift and a donation to the Humane Society if the could!

Some friends have started arriving...
First up, making a cat toy.
Second, painting with the puppies. This was a huge hit!
This is our puppy, Chuck. He was adorable.
Voting on paint colors.
Getting Chuck ready!
Ready, set, go!
Chuck got a little spoiled when he was with us!
I love his colorful paws!
Waiting for our second surprise guests!
Yea! Kitties!!
Taking a little tour of the Humane Society. The kids had a Bingo card and had to look for items.
Jeff helping Julia.
Time to decorate some cupcakes!
Make a wish sweet Natalie.
I am not sure Natalie asked for help...
And time to check out all the new books!
And lastly, time to deliver the cat toys.
Natalie and Jenny.

What a wonderful day!! Happy birthday Natalie!
