Miss Lauren turned 7 on Monday. All she wanted from us was a Nintendo DS. The girl has wanted one for over a year. I keep thinking it was just something that she wanted because a couple of her friends have one, and that it would blow over...but it never did. After Santa disappointed her for the second year in a row, mom suggested that her birthday was just a few short months away and maybe she could get one then. So... she got one, and a Build A Bear game she wanted. Hooray! She got some other cool gifts that she asked Grandma and Grandpa for when she was told that if she wanted a DS that is probably all she would get. I guess that's what Grandma's are for, to save the day! She got some cool Roller skates, and Littlest Pet shop toys. She also got a Nail studio thing that she saw on T.V. She got some cash from Grandma Gwen and Grandpa Clare, and Great Grandma Slaughter,and a Wal-mart gift card from Grandma Julie and Grandpa Richard. It is just burning a hole in her pocket! She asks me everyday how much she has, and what could she buy with it?? She opened her presents from my parents on Easter, and we had a fun trip to Chuck-E-Cheese on her big day. She brought one of her best friends Brinley Wells. The only problem was they found a game that robbed them of all there tokens (25 a piece) in a matter of minuets for the sake of winning tickets. When Lauren and Emma learned that all there 200 tickets would buy was a Laffy Taffy (trick or treat size) or other random junk, They had a melt down. The Prize she wanted was 1000 tickets. I tried to tell her we could go to the dollar store and buy one, but she felt the need to win it. Oh well Jack had a ball, played dozens of games and could care less about his ticket winnings! You might have noticed Lauren's brace on her hand. On Saturday we were in Salt Lake for Our Nephew Spencer's baptism and we stoped at Target while in the big city, and Lauren slammed her Thumb in the car door.We ran to Insta Care, they did an X ray and told us it wasn't broken. She felt much better when they told her she would have to sport a brace for several days! A cool cast makes it all better I guess!

I cannot believe that she is 7 years old. I am glad that her thumb is ok and not borken.
Sounds like a fun birthday and even better to get a DS and a fun game. Happy Belated Birthday Lauren!!!
