Lydia is 8!!

 Of course the highlight of Lydia's actual birthday was her birthday party. We had a pretty fun day all around.
 After hours of party-ing with her friends we had a family party that night!
Cake, presents, and grandparents and auntie to boot!
She got some canvas's, acrylic paints, paint brushes, and other art stuff for her birthday. She was pretty excited. Mimi and Pa got her scriptures, a scripture bag, and mini Children's Songbook, so she was all set for the baptism.

 We also made a trip to the mall, where she had some money to burn, AND she got her ears pierced. I am not sure why this is such a coming of age in my mind. I guess because I will only let my daughters pierce their ears if they are old enough to take care of it themselves. I can't even get my kids nails cut, I don't have the time to clean her ears.
She was very brave. Not too excited before, but after she was glad she went through with it.
