Happy Birthday Rylie!

Rylie turned 8 years old on the 28th of July.  Where has the time gone!  I can't believe I have an 8 year old.  She is such a good girl.  She is very helpful and sweet and super smart.  She is excited to be baptized.  She acts so grown up most of the time.  We call her our little mother because she takes such good care of her baby brother.  We usually don't have to ask her to look after Easton she just automatically does.

For Rylie's birthday this year we decided to take her out as a family and let her decide what we would go do.  We decided not to have a big party because we are having a big get together for her baptism.  Rylie chose to go miniature golfing and to go to the new Chuck-a rama to eat.

The girls had fun for the first little while.  Brynlie got a hole in one on her first shot and got to pick out a candy.  Rylie got a specialty golf ball because it was her birthday.  Toward the 11th hole we got stuck behind some slow people and it was really hot and the girls started complaining.  So about hole 15 we decided to leave early and to try it another day.  We went out to eat and Rylie got some presents (barbie stuff, of course).  She really wanted a badminton set for her birthday but we weren't able to find a decent one for an affordable price so we are still looking.  I think she had a pretty good birthday.  Definitely different from all of the others she has had, but I think now that she is getting older, the big parties are going to start becoming smaller parties and she is o.k. with that.
