Look Who's 7!!!

Our baby girl is now officially 7! After months of anticipation of this big birthday she enjoyed a lovely day - complete with Spaghetti and Meatballs (the dinner of choice 7 years running). She was also spoiled rotten by the entire family.
For her birthday "adventure" she chose to put on a talent show for the extended families and invited all her cousins to participate. It was a fun evening, full of creative and talented people. The program went as follows:
Ksenya - Master of Ceremonies, opened with a dance.
Ayvri - danced and sang "You are my Sunshine"
Kabe - balanced on a log and told jokes
Brigham - did dog tricks including lay down, play dead, and roll over.
Kodi - sang the fishy song
Gideon - taught us how to wink
Trace and Tell - showed us how to give a proper hug
Maji - played the piano
Giada and Drew - sang the Bayou song and the spring song
Drew - taught us some good insults ("you play ball like a girl"), and did the "spiderman" dance
Liz - did some impromptu spelling
Aunt Jamie, Uncle Rich and Abel - tap danced
Papa Cox - did the eye-brow trick
Grandma Cox - recited the Walrus and the Carpenter (one of Ksenya's favorites)
Mom - juggled oranges
Aunt Aimee - sang and played the piano
Ksenya - played the piano and sang "the birthday party"

It was so much fun and I hope I didn't forget any. Thanks for all who participated and HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!
