McKennas Birthday

I can't believe McKenna is seven. She is really one of the sweetest, most angelic people I have ever known. She reminds me and everyone that knows her of her Grandma Nancy Anderson. She was truly an angel. Soft spoken, kind, giving, gentle, serving, sweet and angelic are words that describe these two amazing people. McKenna is so loved by her siblings. Sage and her have a bond that can not be broken. They are two peas in a pod. He always asks me "Mom why is McKenna so cute." And Aspen will always say "I want to be nice like McKenna". She is so sweet. She keeps me going. I am always so amazed at how nice she is to me. She tells me almost everyday how much she loves and appreciates me. She always tells me how cute my shirt or hair or eyeshadow is. She notices everything people do for her. She is very in tune with the spirit. I don't know what I would do with out this little girl. Oh how I love her.

We had a family party for her up at Grandma Myrlenes house. It was so wonderful how many people came and all the nice gifts they gave her. She was so excited and hugged and kissed everyone as she said her thank yous.

McKenna and her Great Grandma Myrlene.
McKenna loves grandma Myrlene so much. She has grown up visiting her every Sunday. It is one of our favorite traditions. Grandma is not a huggy type of person. But she loves McKenna to hug and kiss her. McKenna loves to hug and kiss everyone she loves.

We went and had ice cream with Grandma and Grandpa Anderson and Great Grandpa Ted. McKenna loved having two parties.

 The Holidays are approaching fast, and here we are again facing them with 4 extra precious girls. I have been pretty emotional the last two...
