Jordan's Birthday Celebration

We started off the festivities on Wed., Jordan's actual birthday. She opened her gifts from the family. Jordan was so happy to see a giraffe blanket made by grandma. She was also happy to get an "I am a Child of God" locket from me and Chad.

Saturday we held a party with her friends. She wanted to incorporate giraffe's so we decided on a safari party. Look at these great adventurer's...they roasted hot dogs on the BBQ!

Grandpa was a little more adventurous and showed the younger kids how to roast on the brickets. Boy don't send us out to the savanna for a safari...LOL!
They did make safari hats though and put some leopard print ribbon and jewels on them. Even Rielly got in on the bling action.

Aunt Wendi spent hours making this giraffe cake for Jordan and it turned out absolutely beautiful! Jordan just wanted to look at it.
Can she blow out all 11 candles with one breath? I think she managed. We always knew she was full of hot air!
After cake it was time to open more presents. She is excited to go spend her gift cards to buy a new game for her DS and maybe some hair clips.
