Claire's Birthday

Today was Claire's birthday. She turned 10! She had a very fun day, beginning with breakfast in bed. (A family tradition)

Claire chose pancakes for breakfast (instead of the ordinary high-sugar cereal alternative) and then we 'ended' the day tonight with another of her favorites, French Toast.

Claire's birthday centered solely around horses. This shirt was a favorite gift from Nanna King.

All four of our wonderful children. God is so good.


Here is Claire with her blindfold off discovering her "surprise" birthday party with most of Tyndale House. Julia planned the whole party, wrote the invitations and gave us a list of things that they needed to implement the event. Anyone need a party planner?

Sarah made "Buck-eyes" a wonderful rice-krispy peanut butter cookie dipped in chocolate for the party. They were a hit!


Some of the crowd from Tyndale House. We ran out of everyone because so many people came!

Claire! Happy birthday! Wow, how exciting to be able to say I spent my 10th birthday in Cambridge. Something you will always remember.
Thanks for showing us around your home. It is fun to be able to "see" you when I am praying and thinking about your family. I love the pictures.
Looks like you have been doing quite a bit of baking. I have been wondering how that little gardening job is going?
Blessings,
Chris

Happy Birthday Claire-every time we've tried to call you, you've been asleep! We miss celebrating your birthday with you this year. Caroline is looking forward to seeing you this spring and was wondering if you'd come and stay for a while at our house! Super fun to see you your beds/bedrooms. Love to all,
Auntie M

Hi Sarah,

I miss you! I have a horse toy named "Cassidy" and a littler horse named "Sparkle Cassidy". Have a great day!

Love, Sara
