Happy Birthday Kelsey

Kelsey wanted me to add these 3 pictures to her birthday blog. Wednesday, I took her over to the nail salon and pampered us both with a pedicure - LoVe the pedicures!! She loved the massage chair, and the leg/foot massage so much, she thought it would be great if we could do that at least once a week... (yikes!)

These beauties are the finished product. Her toes somehow match her personality perfectly!
Our sweet little Kelsey turned 9 last Thursday. Birthdays seem to be the day that you realize just how fast time is going by. This past year especially, I've come to realize just how special these moments are - especially with my family.

We had a little family time on the night of her birthday so she could open her presents from Mom, Dad, and Aly.

We celebrated Saturday night with Kelsey's favorite dinner (sloppy joes - Grandma and Grandpa Yates style) along with some fabulous side dishes. Lots of family and friends came out to share her big day. Aunt DeAnne and uncle Josh. Sunny, my best friend from Jr. High, and me. Kelsey's sweet little friend, Kenzi joined us. My adorable, sweet nephew, Colton. He is such a cutie!

Thanks Rhonda, for being our camera lady! You're the greatest!

I was a bit of a procrastinater (due to the LP Days events), and ran out of time to decorate the cake. So, we did the best we could at the last minute. Kelsey loved it. Thanks to everyone who came over to celebrate. We love ya!

Kelsey, I hope you had a fabulous day! Dad and I love you SO much! Your spunky little personality always puts a smile on our face. You've been through a lot lately and you've handled it so well, always coming out of it with a smile. You are such a sweet example to all of us! Love, Mom and Dad
