Evie's 7th Birthday!

Happy birthday to our beautiful seven year old daughter. The day started out great with a two hour delay from school and got even better when school got canceled because of the overnight ice and snow. Yay! A whole day at home because why go to school 2 times in one week? We started the day with the traditional number pancakes.
And then she got to open some presents when dad came inside from snowblowing. She opened some jacks from Annalise.

And a book from mom and dad


Dad and Evie work together to open a package from the TX Tallers
Yay for books! She opened other presents from The Browns and GG Taller. Thanks everyone. We will post pictures of the upcoming science that will be conducted in the kitchen. I already have plans to extract some DNA from the kiwi and then stain it and look at it under the microscope.
In light of the science theme birthday year, I talked her into a volcano cake. It was much easier than trying to figure out how to decorate a mythbusters cake. I had a lot of fun with this one because lava is nice a free form type of decorating. The dry ice was better than the icing or the cake!

After birthday dinner, the girls played with the dry ice. It was super fun for them to experiment with blowing on it and trying to catch the steam
Our best buddies, Paige and Taylor came over for some cake and dry ice fun.
Dad got super creative and put some soap in the dry ice bowl and made cloudy bubbles. As you can see, Annalise was pretty excited about it.
