Emilee's home sans an appendix. Praise the Lord! I'll update about that later. I need to go to bed cause I'm a working girl and have to drive 45 minutes to work tomorrow morning! But I didn't want to let today pass without acknowledging that 4 years ago today my life changed forever. My grandpop (by the grace of God)left a ventilator hospital for heaven and it became official that I was grandmom's full time caregiver till death do us part. And that's what happened. The Lord is good. I started this blog four years ago and I was a differnet person than I was today. The Lord is so good and able to change us. I'm so thankful.

My little sister Emilee turned 7 on Wednesday and basically April and I pulled together the coolest super hero party that ever existed!
So the kids did end up saving Em's Super Birthday party and destroying the fiendish plan of the Evil Dr. Birthday basher (after Joe Joe and Jesse broke a window...but what's a birthday party without a little drama?) And I did test the super powers of all of Em's super friends and found that the majority had super flexibility (limbo!!), one had super speed (musical chairs), and all of them had x-ray vision (our guessing what's in the box game)!!! And of course, they couldn't have broken our pinata bomb without Super Strength!
So I would say, all in all, it was a Super Party and that it really ended with a blast ;)
p.s. yes, I might have had way more fun with this party than the kids...i have no life :)

| Super Em getting ready for her party! |
 |
| Em drew her own invitations- april got them photocopied with all the information for her super guests! |
 |
| This was our Super Hero HQ (that's what my brother said is what all the cartoons call the super hero headquarters!) Notice that april spelled "telephone" wrong- I almost killed her! |
 |
| April made Em's awesome Happy Birthday Banner. We set up the table so the kids could make their own masks to protect their secret identities! |
 |
| Hailey made Em's cake with her "Super Em" logo and personalized cupcakes for all the Super Friends! |
 |
| Some of our props for the photobooth and also one of our games (x-ray vision of course!) |
 |
| Super Guests arriving! (is there anything cuter than batgirl and Super princess fairy (what was that kid thinking?) being reunited!?) |
 |
| Highlight of their day- chasing chickens! Why did I bother to plan any games??? |
 |
| So these were our super villains- The Evil Dr. Birthday Basher and his henchman...Jo Jo. Anyway- we made a super video maybe I'll put up later where the Evil Dr. Birthday Basher threatened to destroy Emilee's birthday party by planting a bomb (i know...violent!) somewhere at Em's birthday party. The bomb was really a pinata that we made to look like a bomb!!! I know- too cool! |

I love my family because we are all really really dorky. I'm so glad I have a 6 year old sister so I can have some excuse to make popsicle stick pilgrims and indians and sing "gobble gobble gobble fat turkey fat turkey" but secretly I get way more excitement out of it than she ever has...
