January- Ruthie's 8th birthday

Ruthie turned 8 on January 15th, and we had some fun celebrating our little-big girl. 
 
 
Eight years ago!  How time flies!
 


Ruthie chose gyros for her birthday meal.
 

 
Daddy bought her some pink carnations- and without knowing it- they are Ruthie's birthday flower!
 
 
Brothers love their big sister!
 

It is interesting that both grandmothers gave Ruthie gifts that they have been saving until she was older - JuJu sent a Madame Alexander doll, and Nonni sent a vintage tea set made of real china.


 
After much debate, Ruthie chose a "faux" sleepover/pizza party.  Her friends wore jammies and watched a movie based on the Mandie books that Ruthie loves.  

 
Friends Lauren, Mella, Sarah, Julia, Maggie, (Ruthie), Mac and Annalisa (under the hat)
