Farm Princess B-day...

Well, Thursday was great!  If you want to have an interesting day, let your 7yo plan your itinerary. 

Here's what we did for Miss M's B-day.  1st she opened presents while we were still in our jammies (everything was horses & Fancy Nancy and very popular!!).  The MP3 player was a HUGE hit.  Then (after getting dressed & pet chores of course...) we went to Cracker Barrel for Breakfast where M ordered Fruit Loops of all things.  Then she got to spend some of her b-day cash in the store, and picked out a Webkins cat & a pink cape for her to wear.  Then off to Chattanooga.  1st we went to the Children's Discovery Museum where we staged a coup where she was able to get E wet, then we went to the Cold Stone Creamery for ice cream (M had 1/2 coffee, 1/2 chocolate w/ gummy bears ) then we hit the aquarium for the fast tour (she wanted to see otters, sharks, crocodiles, penguins, and butterflies) then we played in the "creek" in front of the aquarium (M fell in and got soaked, and of course I'd not brought a change of clothes).  Off to Mellow Mushroom for YUMMY pizza, then we went to sit on some of the brick sculptures down town (one a ginormous couch) then we went back & walked up the big stairs in front of the aquarium for a night view of the city (oh, and we met "Sugar" a horse who works in downtown pulling a carriage...) then we headed home (M wearing her angel costume from last year, as it was the only dry clothes I had in the car!  LOL!!!).  -To the rest of her presents that came in the mail while we were gone, and 6 birthday messages from my crazy family for her too.  All in all a GREAT day!!!!
