8 years old has arrived for our tip toeing middle girl. Dog loving has also arrived and so you guessed it, a dog cake was the appropriate animal cake of choice this year. We tried to do a dog themed party with some fun entertainment.
In our west corner - using what we have and who we are, to bless each other,

We also added a little bit of a talent show from the parents... it was a hit! Enjoy the pics.
Here he is one and all: Jock Illuzion... the magician.
The kids LOVED this and David was so hysterical. This was the hit of the party. I think we have found some hidden talent.
If you would like to see a YouTube video of Jock Illuzion in action view here:
I was the comedy act but the act before me put me in for a pretty expectant crowd.
Their favourite joke: What do you call an alligator in a vest? An investigator. (ba ha ha)
The theme of our family party was dogs.
I made a cardboard doghouse for Lydia's presents and
I also threw together a 'Dog dress up kit'.
In the 'Dog dress up kit': Head bands with felt dog ears I made, a ribbon collar and
a small doggie treat of candy dog bones to snack on during the show.
Here is our 8 year old with her cute little birthday present. Yep a little puppy. Tonight the puppy has found a new home in the cardboard doghouse next to Lydia's bed. :) Oh how we love you lovely Lydia. Happy Birthday.
This was just a family party and what a precious time with our family it was!

Hey Becky! Just read this and enjoyed the pictures as well as your motto of using whatyou have to be a blessing. I am reminded of the feeding of 5000 and the boy who gave the little he had in his hand and daddy blessing that and doing far beyond all that the boy or the followers could imagine could be done with so little. Blessings on all that have to give! May you see a return that is 100-fold, if not in this lifetime, in the next.
