My Beautiful Birthday Girl

My greatest surprise in life turned greatest joy, Sidney, turned 8 this weekend.  Mother's Day to be exact.  She's such a ball of energy, full of passion, a creative little mind.  She's perfect. 

You'll remember that her birthday cake was to be the coolest thing since sliced bread - it's Wheel of Fortune, how could it not be?  When we arrived at the bakery she was filled with anticipation to lift the lid on this sweet, creative treat.  What she saw was nothing less than a total rockin' cake!  ...especially for a Wheel Watcher!

Yes, it's definitely a famous event...the 8th birthday of Sidney Noelle Marshall, aka: super Diva!

While she had a massive headache that kept her down most of the day, the drugs kicked in just in time for presents and cake.  (Although she still hasn't had any of this cake)  It was kind of sad, anti-climatic and disappointing that she has been looking forward to this day since the day after her last birthday only to be miserable on the day of her big event.  Most of her time was spent on the couch while her friends took over the playroom, and her brother heisted one of her Nerf dart guns. 

She watched most of it unfold, tried to participate in as much as she could, but overall did not enjoy her birthday party like an eight year old should.  She certainly needs a re-do! 

Lucky for her, her momma is a firm believer in the idea of a birthday month!  We'll take the new Schwinn for a spin, have a hunk of the Wheel cake and party like the rockstar she is!
